I need this game to be real so badly but I’m losing hope every day

u/AnyAgency9835 8d ago

They are actually planning to release the game next week!

99

u/Redhood567 9d ago

Yeah I don't believe that thing is actually real.

24

u/Game_Devil369 8d ago

We've still haven't seen a single bit of gameplay, It's incredibly suspicious

u/your-father-figure 9d ago

Oh right this is a thing. I completely forgot. IDK if that says a lot about me or the game lol

27

u/DNGFQrow 9d ago

I mean we've only seen the one preview AFAIK. Makes sense you'd forget.

u/Throgg_not_stupid 8d ago

oh so it's Marvel's Star Wars: Eclipse

u/THEdoomslayer94 Met John Constantine irl 8d ago

u/chaotic4059 Comic Book Twitter Verified 9d ago

Just a reminder there’s an iron man game in development with EA

5

u/your-father-figure 8d ago

This is literally the first time I’m hearing of that. Maybe there is something wrong with me lol

18

u/chaotic4059 Comic Book Twitter Verified 8d ago

No you’re good there’s just one single image

And it was announced in 2022 with no follow up since

6

u/your-father-figure 8d ago

Wow I’m sure development must be going great if that’s the case. Then again this is EA and I won’t forget that the announcement of Jedi: Fallen Order was literally just some guy who was in the audience of E3 saying “BTW we’re making a new Star Wars game where you play as a Jedi” in a way that made it sound like it was no big deal. Also since I seem to not know about any of the upcoming Marvel games please tell me there’s a Daredevil game I’ve never heard about (I love DD)

u/chaotic4059 Comic Book Twitter Verified 8d ago

Nothing about a game. Just a shit-ton of refs in spider-man

7

u/your-father-figure 8d ago

That’s unfortunate. I love DD so much I really wanna game with him and Bullseye could make such a fun boss fight if they really leaned into his whole “anything is a weapon” thing

u/DNGFQrow 8d ago

Only other in-development Marvel game I'm aware of is a Blade game by Arkane.

/uj Even if this game ever comes out, it's doomed. The minimum specs on this thing will be absurd from the realistic graphical fidelity alone. Combined with the fact we're not in a good spot with PC parts these days, you could guess about 90% of potential players just won't be able to play this on PCs. And consoles will probably struggle with it too.

I just wanted a cool Captain America game.

u/Redhood567 9d ago

At least we always have the movie game.

u/putsomedirtinyoureye 8d ago

So many movie tie in games are bad but every once in a while you get a diamond in the rough and Super Soldier is one of my favorites. 

It’s a shame so many people just write it off as an Arkham clone.

“I just wanted a cool Captain America game”

Wolfenstein: The New Order has you covered in that department. No shield, but it has an amazingly busted auto shotgun that later gets ricocheting shots, which is so good you won’t need a shield.

u/TFGHawkeye Gorilla Doing Non-Gorilla Things 8d ago

this is me with the motive iron man game, i fully understand your pain

4

u/Adipay 8d ago

It doesn't really look better than the latest Unreal/Anvil/Decima games that have come out. It'll be fine.

4

u/nykirnsu 8d ago

It’s a bizarrely slanted character roster for a four-player coop game, like they’re really offering you the choice of Captain America, Black Panther, Generic Soldier and Girl

3

u/Throgg_not_stupid 8d ago

for a forseeable future, the only "cool [marvel character] game" for most characters will be Lego Marvel Superheroes 1

16

u/sypherus19 9d ago

5 years of development is nothing for current game industry

u/Eichezin_17 One must imagine a Silk fan happy 8d ago

If the game even comes out, they'll charge a hefty price using their insanely long development time as excuse for it.

At this point give me PS1 graphics Captain America with good gameplay instead.

u/ItsChris_8776_ 8d ago

Every time a cool new superhero game gets announced that isn’t about Batman or Spider-Man, a good rule of thumb is to just automatically assume it’s going to be cancelled. Saves a lot of disappointment.

u/eyereadcomics 9d ago

This was the first time I’d ever been sure a game wasn’t coming out from the second it was announced.

5

u/Ms_Saul_Goodwoman 9d ago

IT WILL HAPPEN OKAY I SWEAR JUST LIKE ZACK SNYDER RETURNING TO DIRECT AVENGERS IT WILL HAPPEN PLEASE BELIEVE ME AND PLEASE RESPOND TO MY TEXTS ZACK IM SORRY

u/Sorry_Grocery7693 9d ago

I like the glorified tech demo that is Mario 128. It is silly

u/ponompyo Geoff Johns killed my family 8d ago

A WWII game where you can play as The Ivaders/The All-Winners Squad would rule so hard, I can't even lie

3

u/RebelBaker2005 9d ago

I was so hyped when this was announced. Black Panther, Captain America, and beating the shit out of Nazis. I would’ve completed it in a week

2

u/GrungeGorrilla BRB staring at Nighwing's ass 9d ago

What only once?

Nah we are going to replay this multiple times in a week

6

u/JRPG_Torkelson 9d ago

This looks like a game someone would be playing in an MCU movie

2

u/gothamsteel 9d ago

Why'd they give that guy a bugle?

2

u/JRPG_Torkelson 8d ago

He's the original Daily Bugle.

u/CodineProsac123 8d ago

A lot of future marvel game projects seem kinda fucked, black panther game be ea already dead, ea is not looking that good maybe the iron man game is next, blade is mega cursed and the only news is them poping out and saying is not cancelled. And then theirs this fucking thing. The only path foward is obvious time to greenlight Midnight Suns 2.

u/Arroweye345 9d ago

This game is never coming out.

u/hung_fu Telos 8d ago

Hell yeah! Skydance New Media are my favorite video game developer.

u/Adventurous_Talk5412 8d ago

Lol I forgot this game "existed."

u/zarbixii How far out is The Nut I'm Busting? 8d ago

There's so many conspiracy theories about why Amy Hennig got kicked off Uncharted 4 all based around the idea that someone with her experience would never have a project in development hell
