19.11.2023 - 12:42 / screenrant.com / Carol Danvers
With Insomniac Games, the developer of the series of games going on to create a video game starting Wolverine, , a question emerges regarding which other Marvel superheroes deserve their own game. Despite producing enormously popular comics, movies, and TV shows, Marvel has arguably only reached its video game peak fairly recently. While many of Marvel's most notable figures have been the leading characters in video games, only a select few of the adaptations of the comic book giant's franchises come even remotely close to the quality of gameplay or storytelling that the most recent series of games possess.

Though Captain Marvel has been included in a number of video games, such as 2017's, her inclusion in a larger cast of heroes has always come across as an afterthought. Captain Marvel has had two dedicated movies, (2019) and (2023), and plays a recurring role in other Marvel Cinematic Universe projects; however, this vital figure is yet to have a video game.

This genius, witty, and charismatic figure has starred in numerous blockbuster films, but when it comes to video games, his are often abysmal. Iron Man is undoubtedly an excellent candidate for a future video game, not as an Avenger, but as an individual superhero, in a manner similar to the earliest Robert Downy Jr. movies. The variety of his suits, abilities, and powers could even exceed those of Miles Morales and Peter Park in. Plus, with a large roster of enemies, the options for a game's story are limitless. Luckily, Motive Studio has an Iron Man game in early development, though there's been no word since its initial announcement.
While Captain America may have originated as a 1940s jingoistic supersoldier, he has become one of Marvel's most enduringly popular superheroes. Owing to this popularity, and his combination of interesting abilities and

Creative Assembly Will Stick To Their Core Strengths After Hyenas Fiasco
Hyenas was first unveiled to be an upcoming PvPvE game that was developed under Creative Assembly. This was a surprising video game reveal as the studio was mainly known for just RTS games.
