In a game of exceedingly well-written characters like Baldur's Gate 3, the sadistic and sexually suggestive vampire spawn Astarion manages to stand out. But despite developer Larian Studios clearly signalling that it is moving on from the game and away from the series, Astarion actor Neil Newbon isn't quite ready to follow suit.
New Marvel Game Reveal Incoming, Rumoured to Be a 6v6 Hero-Based Shooter | Push Square
31.03.2024 - 01:14 / pushsquare.com / Geoff Keighley / Gotham Knights / Be A
A new Marvel game will be officially announced tomorrow (that's the 27th March) at 8am PT / 11am ET / 3pm GMT. That's according to hype master Geoff Keighley, who's teasing the title on social media.
But as it happens, we may already know what this game is. As reported by Forbes, this project is heavily rumoured to be a six-versus-six hero-based shooter, in a similar vein to Overwatch — but obviously featuring Marvel characters with their super-powered abilities. It's also said to be third-person.
Apparently, the game is actually coming from NetEase — the Chinese tech company that currently owns a staggering number of game development studios. Of course, NetEase is also behind a bunch of popular free-to-play, mobile-based titles — and so people will no doubt be questioning the business model of this Marvel game before it's even been revealed. The title is supposedly targeting PC and consoles.
What do you make of this? Feel free to list off the Marvel heroes and villains that you want to be playable in the comments section below.
Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, he's played 'em all — a little too much, some might say.
Marvel? Marvel?! Marvel, you idiot!
Marvel's et it.
I have a bad feeling about this
Yay, a hero shooter. We haven't got enough of those in the videogame industry.
Shooter co op multiplayer online live service battle pass cosmetic microtransaction season pass
I'm so tired of this sh*t, so so tired
So far multiplayer super-hero games are 0-2. So the odds aren't in their favor.
Marvel! Hero shooter!
Calling the name now. Captain America and the Focus Group Six & Spiderman.
@Korgon Depends on how/ when you look at it.
Avengers, Gotham Knights, Suicide Squad… that's 3.
But if you go back to the old days, one or 2 of those ultimate alliance games were fun for a bit. And there was a PS2 era Justice League game that was pretty good.
