EA and Marvel to create AAA Iron Man game: "It’s about giving developers freedom"

From GI.biz: "Back when Square Enix’s The Avengers was unveiled at E3, a few of us were wondering: could this be the start of the Marvel Interactive Universe?

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has dominated cinema (and now TV) for nearly 15 years, with its huge comic book universe of interconnecting stories, characters and franchises. Following the success of the PlayStation Spider-Man games, and now with big partnerships with major AAA studios, were we about to see the company try and repeat the trick in video games?

The answer was no. And according to Bill Rosemann, the VP and creative director of Marvel Games, such a move would be detrimental to the company’s overall ambition."

I like that this would be totally original in design, like what Insomniac did with Spider-man. Not based on an existing movie or show concept. that already makes it better than the 7th gen release that Sega did.

Insomniac just basically copied the formula from PS2 version of Spider-man 2. Everything was jacked up to 11 but yeah the basic formula was already there.

EA already made an Iron Man game. It was called Anthem lol.

ClayRules2012602d ago

Lol, oh how I remember that game…

-Foxtrot602d ago

Kind of feels they chose Iron Man because they didn't want to waste the Anthem flying assets

ABizzel1602d ago

That's exactly why they're making this. The groundwork is already there and done. They only need to choose/create a story, create a city map, and ensure the mechanics are there.

The flying and combat in Anthem were never the issue with that game so I expect Iron Man to be adequate there, and I also want a PSVR2 mode since Sony's not making their sequel to Iron Mna.

Snakeeater25602d ago

But I had multiplayer :p so that’s why it sucked

Lionsguard602d ago

Well, the flying was the best part in that game.

ClayRules2012602d ago

Yeah, the flying was really good/solid.

Too bad for the best fps there is atm...

Sgt_Slaughter1h ago

The market for games like this is too over saturated to make a dent in other established games' player counts. Trying to start all over with a whole new multiplayer meta and grinding to get better is not feasible when there's already a ton of similar games that have come out before it.
