Mildly interesting, but per Jeff Grubb, EA are working on a second single-player Marvel game.

I wonder which character.

@TheBrightestSun

I wonder which character.

There’s a lot to choose from. With them already working on Black Panther, the next biggest character might be Iron Man. Could see them re-purposing the Anthem flight mechanics for that. Could work well.

I’ve always felt Anthem was a perfect iron man game in the way it plays

Nick hinted at this last podcast too or at least that they were working on multiple marvel games

[Staffy]

Good to see EA bothering with singleplayer games. They have had different thoughts about those in the past.

@Cayde4Ever

Wow, UE5 only out for a few months and this is what we getting from Indie devs. I can’t wait to see what Avowed and Witcher look like

Yes, this looks really nice. More often than not indies really manage to surprise us. Not only with the unique ideas, but also tech wise.

Making it for popular IP makes it easier and safer for them. They shouldn’t fuck that up, hopefully, that company has the tendency to flip flop and ruin things out of nowhere.

Yeah true. Do we even know which studio is making Black Panther?

It’s a new EA studio led by a former Monolith lead.

Wasn’t this discussed recently? From what I recall the character rumoured was Black Panther.

This would be awesome and a day 1

I’m getting very tired of Marvel stuff…

Compared to the past there really aren’t that many Marvel games when you think of just how much IP they have.

It’s not just games I’m thinking about though, and the fact that there has been more in the past is not exactly making the saturation any less.

No, this is a second Marvel game separate from the Black Panther one.

@Mort

Yeah, I’d have to agree. There’s no end to all of these Marvel products. They really love milking us consumers dry, but I guess I can’t blame them…

Don’t worry Mort, when Microsoft acquires WB and all of DC, you can go from being tired of Marvel to being tired of DC. Hehehe.

In general, im very hyped for Marvel (and DC) games in the future. Thus far, I have -

• Spider Man 2
• Wolverine
• Gotham Knights
• Suicide Squad
• Black Panther (rumor)
• Marvel EA game (rumor)
• Wonder Woman
• Marvel game from SkyDance with Amy Hennig.

Let’s go baby!! Give me more!!!

Haha, I would probably prefer that. DC has more interesting things, things that are not PG 7 as well.

Which existing Microsoft IP do you think could fit into the DC Universe? What if they made Gears part of DC? Like for now it’s some remote world within the larger DCU, but down the road they could be part of a fight against DC Big Bad Villains.

I don’t know all of Microsoft’s IP’s but off the top of my head, honestly, none. lol

Iron Man is the only Marvel thing I’d kill for, just skin Anthem as Iron Man and they have a good starting point.
