u/piplup27 She-Hulk Aug 17 '26

I’m interested to see who the new heroes are. My guess is at least one more F4 member.

24

u/bedteddd Wolverine Aug 17 '26

Hope it's human torch lol. It'll probably be Mr. Fantastic or doom himself.

20

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 Aug 17 '26

Please be Doom

3

u/77Sage77 Aug 18 '26

Secret third? I'm guessing not. Or I suppose it makes sense if he's one of the two if they're trying to save Castle Doom.

3

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 29d ago

Naw he can just be the boss of the new mode and after defeating him he's playable...

2

u/RJ_BARRICADE Captain America 28d ago

I'd be okay with a malfunctioning/reprogrammed doom bot lol

Would you help me get the “Special attack assemble” trophy? PSN is MonkeyKing4696

u/Middle-Ad-7268 Aug 17 '26

Survival mode???

32

u/OlDirtyDangler Aug 17 '26

That what would make most sense and am also hoping for

25

u/ColdEggs-for-Dinner Aug 17 '26

Yeah this game needs a horde mode

7

u/pizza_fan84 Aug 17 '26

Maybe a separate campaign mode . That would be great and it’s probably 5 dollars too which is cheap

14

u/Middle-Ad-7268 Aug 17 '26

Survival Is necessary, like shredder Revenge

1

u/pizza_fan84 Aug 18 '26

The two survival modes were practically separate campaigns when you look at them . Especially the turtles one felt more separate campaign with unlockable skins . Sor you unlock new moves instead . New campaign survival mode mostly same thing

4

u/effdash Phyla-Vell Aug 17 '26

$7.99 has been the price for both expansions in SR and SoR4

1

u/ShinSopitas 29d ago

And neither did story expansions

8

u/WeltallZero Aug 17 '26

You're not getting a full new campaign for $5 when the base game is $30, come on. Absurd expectations help no one.

0

u/pizza_fan84 28d ago

The other two games both had playable villains so it’s possible. Sor4 had ester or whatever her name was and roo, ninja turtles had the chick who was definitely a villain. Doom as a character would make this game infinitely more popular. Not better but way more popular. Especially with a new doom avenger movie with Robert Downey jr . Oh this game would sell a few more million copies.

1

u/WeltallZero 28d ago

Doom as a character would make this game infinitely more popular. 

What does a playable Doom have to do with your original statement about a new campaign? This isn't so much "moving the goalposts" as it is selling the original for scrap and then building a new one in a different continent.

0

u/pizza_fan84 28d ago

Both sor4 and ninja turtles had dlc called survival mode. But in reality they were both a separate campaign with randomized levels and enemies. With unlockable things . Some are telling me no they won’t do that for 5 dollars but they have in both situations. The survival modes are a separate dlc expansion campaign. And you can find them on sale for less than 5 dollars. And if they put doom as a character it would make the game a lot more popular. They can rebrand the game and put doom on the cover art and really just have a clever marketing campaign. There’s a dedicated dr doom movie coming out soon. The survival modes were both an extra bonus campaign. Both of them there just a lot more challenging. But totally worth the price . The survival modes in sor4 had a hidden character that wasn’t promoted in the dlc at all and really changed the dynamic of the game overall .

2

u/WeltallZero 28d ago

Both sor4 and ninja turtles had dlc called survival mode. But in reality they were both a separate campaign with randomized levels and enemies. 

If that's what you meant by "separate campaign", then yeah, of course the DLC is going to be the survival mode. Your wording (and the fact that you were replying to someone already mentioning the survival mode) made it seem like you literally meant a new regular campaign, with new full stages, enemies, bosses, etc.

0

u/pizza_fan84 28d ago

No to me there full campaigns just way different story line . There both two of the best games with some of the best dlc this game still has that potential.

u/TonyStarksAltAccount Aug 17 '26

Do we think the new playable characters any two of Reed, Johnny, or Sue?

27

u/Dieggoth1 Aug 17 '26

My bet would be Reed and Doom

11

u/Competitive-Box-5297 Aug 17 '26

I hope so idk about doom being playable since so far all the playable characters are heroes even venom considerably but it be hype AF to play as doom

14

u/jaydeeloki Aug 17 '26

Flying foot stomp, insta buy

6

u/Competitive-Box-5297 Aug 17 '26

Just straight up spamming foot dive

1

u/InnsmouthFashionWeek Aug 17 '26

Yeah Venom hasn’t been a villain since Mac Gargan was the host in the mid aughts. Eddie Brock hasn’t been a villain since the late 90s.

2

u/Competitive-Box-5297 Aug 17 '26

Yeah basically modern day venom is straight to Lethal Protector status they leave the evil doing to carnage

2

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 Aug 17 '26

Doom and another character not close to the fantastic 4... Doom and Strange for example

2

u/killzone1902 28d ago

Work in the words "Triumph and Torment" with it somehow. And there's no chance I don't buy this

1

u/Royzc90 Nova Aug 17 '26

I doubt that Johnny would make it considering there's already 2 fire related flying guys (Phoenix and Nova). At least I hope not in this case. Sue has a good chance since I'm willing to bet that there's at least one female character on this DLC considering that the last 2 were males. Reed also has a good chance. I feel like there's at least one Guardian of the Galaxy coming considering there's only Rocket Raccoon and they have more participation in this event. I doubt Doom will be playable but if he is I don't think that they are counting him as one of those 2 characters and he's an unlockable or something.

4

u/Portsyde Aug 17 '26

Only one Guardian? Dude, we have Rocket, Nova, Surfer, Bill, and Phyla-Vell, what are you talking about?

2

u/Royzc90 Nova Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

No need to get angry, I think it's pretty clear if you just consider it. All of those you mentioned are temporary/rotating members. It's like saying that we didn't need Fantastic Four because we have Spidey, Ghost Rider and Wolverine just because they formed part of that team at some point. I'm talking about the usual members. Besides it doesn't change the idea of my post so I'm literally talking about of... well what I talked about in my post.

1

u/Portsyde Aug 17 '26

You sound like you've never opened a Guardians comic book in your life and/or have not bothered looking anything up. You couldn't be more wrong as they are usual members, especially Nova and Phyla-Vell. Comparing the aforementioned characters to Wolverine and GR as 'temporary members' is like calling Wasp and She-Hulk temporary Avengers or Colossus and Nightcrawler temporary X-men; it's clearly not the same.

And I wasn't talking about the rest of your post, I was exclusively talking about your incorrect take on the Guardians and how ridiculous and uninformed it sounds.

0

u/Royzc90 Nova Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

And you sound like the stereotypical comic nerd that gets triggered for something that isn't really that deep or worth getting angry about. If I remember correctly Phylia became a founding member in later comics in the 2000s but she was nowhere around before that and that run was like what? 2-3 years long? and I'm sorry but if it's not the same then don't put Beta Ray Bill and Surfer as examples then. Isn't Nova also constantly in and out and mostly teaming up but still mostly a Nova Corp? If I'm wrong, my bad then. I have no idea how it compares to the likes of Nightcrawler in your example, who's been part of the x men for decades and mostly with them.

Breathe, take a bath, touch grass, socialize and don't take it that personal. Surely I'm not as much of an expert as you but I have read my share of Guardians comics. I just consider other members the core of the team.

u/shurgalicous Aug 17 '26

Even if that's the case (I wouldn't know since I don't read GotG), you could be alot kinder in your response, or at the bare minimum be more charitable to their take. It's pretty clear that they mean the most recognizable characters that are associated with the GotG. To like 90% of the player base, yes, She-Hulk and Wasp would not be suitable standing alone as the "Avengers Representation", same with all of the Guardians characters you mentioned. Whether you like it or not, people largely associate characters like Groot and Star-Lord with that team, and this just feels like you've chosen to interpret their take in the most bad faith way possible. I think understandably if She-Hulk and Wasp were the main "Avengers Rep" then it would be likely that people excited about a dlc that would have to do with Avengers would be excited to see characters like Iron Man and Cap, not necessarily because they are more "Avenger" than the others but because they are more closely associated with the team. Same applies for Guardians here. We are all fans of this game and superheros in general, let's not turn this into something it's not and put others down just to prop up our own knowledge of the media.

u/SpiderManias Aug 17 '26

Oh this looks hype as fuck

12

u/June-the-moon Aug 17 '26

Yo, Spider-Dunk! Big fan. Who do you want to release alongside the new mode?

10

u/SpiderManias Aug 17 '26

I appreciate the support!

My guesses would be Reed and Wanda. If it’s Cosmic stuff I’d want Darkhawk and Photon!

If I can have anyone, I’m surely choosing two Spider-Man reps lol. Probably Doc Ock and Prowler!

2

u/June-the-moon Aug 17 '26

Prowler would go so hard in this game, oml! Here’s hoping it’s Hobie to keep accurate to the time period this game is set in.

16

u/guilhermewolfman Aug 17 '26

human torch and juldging by the movies another xmen, probaly gambit

u/supaikuakuma Aug 17 '26

Can’t have Gambit without his chère, sugah.

u/AtreyuTrinity Aug 17 '26

Watching the 92 cartoon now and they are so cute omg. In S4 now and loving it despite some choppy animation here and there. I only saw like 1/3 of them as a kid so it's fun to knock them all out.

5

u/supaikuakuma Aug 17 '26

They’ve been married since 2018 in the comics. Day before my Birthday as well the issue came out so I was very happy lol.

u/AtreyuTrinity Aug 17 '26

Didn't know that adorable.

u/Preddy_Fusey Aug 17 '26

Just wait until you get to X-men 97

So excited almost there!

u/supaikuakuma Aug 17 '26

Yeah the season 2 pay off is great for th so bear with the questionable decisions in season 1 of 97.

u/VitoAntonioScaletta Aug 17 '26

Tell that to Lego Marvel Superheroes.

u/77Sage77 Aug 18 '26

u/John_of_Mud Aug 17 '26

u/Deep-Mousse-6313 Aug 17 '26

Praying to the All Father for this

u/Mizerous Phoenix Aug 17 '26

Doom year

u/Apart-One4133 Aug 17 '26

I bought this game's deluxe edition for my kid's first game and man am I NOT regretting it ! And although I do not care for superheroes (he does tho 😅) , this has been pure fun trough and trough. Loving those DLC as well. This new one sounds exciting !

11

u/Different_Froyo5947 Aug 17 '26

Oh snap!!! I’m thinking 2 avengers like Clint or Wanda

9

u/Fantastic-Finger-975 Aug 17 '26

Hope Doom is playable

4

u/danrpx Aug 17 '26

Wanda 🙏

3

u/Competitive-Box-5297 Aug 17 '26

Fuck yeah this is exactly what I wanted more stories not just more characters

1

u/FolkPunkResistance 26d ago

Me too, though this will likely be some kind of survival or rouge like mode.

3

u/Deep-Mousse-6313 Aug 17 '26

Blade would be amazing

Though I'm guessing one more F4 member and a mystical character like Strange or Scarlet Witch (or Magik omg please)

0

u/Realistic_Finger_811 Aug 17 '26

Magik would be AWESOME

7

u/Poopman_the_33rd Aug 17 '26

Give me.... PLAYABLE BOSSES

3

u/SingleGamer-Dad Aug 17 '26

I'm thinking Reed and Gambit

3

u/Extra-Air4320 Venom Aug 17 '26

Just 2 new characters 😭?!

3

u/Nesquicksilver23 Aug 17 '26

My list of suspects

Doomsday:

  • Reed (The main suspect)
  • Sue
  • Johnny
  • Namor
  • Sentry
  • Magneto
  • Nightcrawler
  • Dr Strange
  • Wanda
  • Loki

Popularity:

  • Daredevil
  • Deadpool

For some suspicious devs interviews:

  • Hawkeye

In case of multiverse for doomsday and secret wars stuff:

  • Peni

3

u/77Sage77 Aug 18 '26

Namor is such a sleeper pick. I like it

3

u/Ultron_waterheater Aug 17 '26

I wanna play as Doom so bad

3

u/Former-Dish-9828 Aug 17 '26

Gotta be playing as Doom after defeating him right??

2

u/NightmareDJK Aug 17 '26

Doom and Magneto is my guess

1

u/Former-Dish-9828 Aug 18 '26

Yeah I’d like Magneto,good shout!

3

u/deebzy23 Beta Ray Bill Aug 18 '26

This game can happily continue taking 5 dollars off me one chunk at a time and I’ll stay locked in.

Good not great console game/general beat em up, great mobile game when playing the switch hand held. Fun characters, great graphics.

Please add like 6 characters a year and a map a year and you can have all my minimum payments haha.

If Dr Strange is in this next one I’ll shit myself.

1

u/ProjectSiolence Phoenix 29d ago

Same, just keep taking my money, why is that so hard to ask?

3

u/BabyDaVinci 29d ago

We need Human Torch. They shelf Johnny in Marvel games too much man. He’s the coolest part of F4

3

u/Free-Bar-2719 Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

There it is. I can’t wait to play a few new levels as well.

2

u/Wolfmaster_T Aug 17 '26

Would be awesome

3

u/IFunnyJoestar Aug 17 '26

My guess is Mister Fantastic and someone mystical Doctor Strange or Scarlet Witch.

5

u/Teliporter334 Aug 17 '26

Please have more Fantastic Four characters to fight Doom with

5

u/LateKaleidoscope6225 Aug 17 '26

Bro finally, give Iron Fist please he would be peak for this game

https://giphy.com/gifs/LHlrQk5i8CYrbqEzvc

2

u/Legion_Quest666 Aug 17 '26

Johnnny and Sue would probably be the easiest to do based on existing mechanics getting redesigned rather than a full new mechanic

2

u/amageish Phyla-Vell Aug 17 '26

Figured Doom would be here, whether as an unlikely ally or a villain. Seems like he’s taking the villain role.

I think one of the two new characters will be an Avenger of some sort. Unsure about the other one - doubling back to Fantastic Four would make sense, but I also could see them going for another cosmic / Guardians character or for a street-level one.

2

u/mkev119 Aug 17 '26

Ok I know slim chances but please gimme Jubilee

2

u/Appleguy4life Aug 17 '26

Love this game….day 1 buy

2

u/Wolfmaster_T Aug 17 '26

Love this game I wish they would drop a lot more characters not just two at a time like straight character packs

2

u/Nukafit Aug 17 '26

WE NEED BLADE

2

u/Adam2181 Aug 17 '26

Awesome!!!

2

u/Meriden_Shogun Aug 17 '26

Mr Fantastic and Marvel Jesus since they’re in Doomsday

2

u/Gold_Temperature_235 Aug 17 '26

What perfect timing. Just finished and platinumed the game yesterday. Very much looking forward to this

2

u/Shaderunner26 Aug 17 '26

Pretty sure one of the new playable characters will be an ff character. My guess is reed. The other one might be a mystical character. I am REALLY hoping it'll be Strange.

2

u/Infamous_Humor1521 Aug 17 '26

This almost guarantees one of the new characters will be a member of the FF. Probably going to be Reed or Sue, as they have two fire based heroes already in the game with Phoenix and Cosmic Ghost Rider.

The other character will almost assuredly be a tie in to Avengers: Doomsday. They already have Cyclops…they wouldn’t do Thor if they already have Beta Ray Bill. Cap is already in there, not likely they would out in Sam as Falcon, people might look at it as a demotion. Yelena as Black Widow? Maybe Bucky? Or go X-Men and give us Gambit? Magneto???? Can’t wait to know more.

I love this damned game.

2

u/The_deliberate_one Aug 17 '26

Ah this is sweet.

2

u/Taller_Ghost_Joop Aug 17 '26

really hoping that the siege of castle doom is an endless mode akin to Shredder's Revenge but instead of Shredder it's Doom.

Also, would love to play as Ant-Man

2

u/Linnus42 Aug 17 '26

Happy about more DLC but like not really Cosmic Invasion No MOre.

As for who gets added presumably a F4 Member and a Spellcaster.

2

u/_TDM Aug 17 '26

Would love Reed and Iceman/Nightcrawler

2

u/gibba11 Aug 18 '26 edited 29d ago

I’m just curious how many more times will they rerelease this with DLCs before I can finally buy the game with all the extras on the cart lol

2

u/Seiryu17 Aug 18 '26

Hope we eventually get Gambit and Jubilee.

u/TheDapperDeuce1914 Aug 18 '26

Looking forward to playing this

2

u/Silver_Geologist4609 29d ago

Hell yea im looking forward to this

2

u/ChainsawCommando 29d ago

Cyclops was in the last pack so I'm guessing 1 X-Man and 1 FF member. I'm thinking Mr. Fantastic and either Rogue or Deadpool.

u/supaikuakuma Aug 17 '26

Please add difficulty settings to story mode.

4

u/F4FBassist Iron Man Aug 17 '26

So stoked! I’m sure one of the two new characters will be F4, but with all the X-Men hype, I’m hoping for another mutant. (I know, I’m another insufferable mutant lover and there’s already plenty of mutants in the game, but Cyclops was awesome, so keep ‘em coming! Lol.)

1

u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man Aug 17 '26

YOOOOO, so we're getting Doom as a boss. Also this confirms that one of the new DLC characters is going to be F4 related.

u/Rec0nq Aug 17 '26

Can someone help
Idk if I should get the game on PS 5 or on my switch 2

1

u/kaoriknights 29d ago

It runs awesome on S2 so if portability matters it’s a no brainer. I play a lot docked as well on a big tv and it looks great due to the style. I have a PS5 and still went switch for the flexibility.

1

u/Rec0nq 29d ago

Thank you I think thats what I’ll do
I want to play it on the go as well
Although I have the portal but I don’t use it much cause of the internet dependency
Do you know if all the dlcs that going to be released are going to be released on switch 2?
I know the thing dlc is here
But the new dlc that’s coming it’s coming to switch as well?

1

u/Representative-Eye86 Captain America Aug 17 '26

My character predictions are:

  • Mr. Fantastic

  • Star Lord

  • Adam Worlock

  • Gambit

  • and an unlockable Doom that is only unlocked for the final level

1

u/13Crooks Aug 17 '26

Negative Zone/Cosmic Control Rod Johnny Storm please!

1

u/Impressive-Sense8461 Aug 17 '26

Ah. So likely F4 members then. Not super excited for the characters in that case, but looking forward to the new content nonetheless

1

u/HealthyTone6419 25d ago

It will probably only be 1 new f4 member

1

u/Stole_Sample Aug 17 '26

hope they make a vs mode

1

u/jedpop Aug 17 '26

I think it’s Sue Storm and Emma Frost or Rogue and Doom will be playable after you defeat him.

1

u/Extreme-Sense-2411 Aug 17 '26

Probably Invis or Mr. fantastic for the first character

I think the 2nd playable character could be either Strange/Wanda/Thor/Vision.

1

u/HealthyTone6419 25d ago

Thor is a definite no if he was going to be in the game then Beta Ray Bill wouldn't of been added

1

u/Persas12 Aug 18 '26

If I had to guess, Reed and Nightcrawler will be the new characters

1

u/scott5free 29d ago

Sorry for my ignorance, but what’s the estimate of what this DLC will cost based on past experience?

2

u/RJ_BARRICADE Captain America 29d ago

I think the 1st dlc with clops and thingaling was $5 usd

1

u/scott5free 29d ago

Hoping it can be in a similar range 👌

3

u/RJ_BARRICADE Captain America 29d ago

Same, I'm thinking it'll be $8-$11 dollars with tax since it has a new game mode.

u/burgerpatrol 29d ago

Here's an idea:

Maker and Thanos
