Marvel on Kinect!! This sounds hot, hopefully the game is good. The movie blockbuster is coming home to your Kinect and Wii U but why wasn’t the game ready with the release of the movie? Anyway check out the story on the Marvel Avengers game after the jump.
“The Avengers sure was a fantastic movie, but what would be really great is if there were a videogame,†said no one.
In response, Ubisoft and Marvel said Thursday that they will release Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth this fall. While the announcement did not contain any details as to what type of videogame this would be, the two platforms should give us something of a clue: Kinect and Wii U.
Thursday’s announcement says that the game will be “motion-controlled†and include 20 characters like Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America and Thor1.
The game is not based on the Joss Whedon-directed film but instead “inspired by iconic Marvel comic artwork and the Secret Invasion storyline,†according to the announcement. THQ was working on a proper Avengers movie tie-in game, but shuttered the project last year.
