Next-generation is here! Join us as we break down, year by year, the big comic book video game news and releases on what is now “last gen.” Previous posts: 2013, 2014, 2015 2016 started in a big way with the release of LEGO Marvel’s Avengers, the second Marvel outing from TT Games, that recounted the…
When the public was given a first look at PlayStation 5 software during the summer, easily the game that would’ve caused people to find several hundred dollars for a new console was Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the next chapter in Sony and Insomniac Games’ new Spider-Man saga. Thankfully, Sony announced earlier this week that those who can’t…
During Nintendo’s E3 presentation, a new trailer was shown off for the upcoming Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, which is now very close to release. The video showed off a bunch of familiar faces, from various Spider-Men and Women, Captain and Ms. Marvel, The Avengers to the X-Men. One character who probably made you think…
With Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order dropping next month and continuing a series that has been dormant for almost ten years, Diego Rivera asks the question in his latest video: Which game is better, Marvel Ultimate Alliance by Raven or Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 by Vicarious Visions?

In his MCU debut, Spider-Man shared the screen with nearly every hero in Captain America: Civil War and now as part of his first ever…
Upon booting up my PS4 today, I received a notification about a new update for my digitally purchased Marvel Ultimate Alliance, and pondered if it was the free DLC that was promised after the poor launch of the game and its sequel earlier this summer. From Bill Rosemann, the creative director at Marvel Games, Twitter feed comes…
Last week’s revival of both Marvel Ultimate Alliance and it’s sequel were not met with the love that Marvel Games probably had hoped for. Coming in at $60 for the bundle and $40 a piece, the first game was missing DLC not found on the Gold Edition rerelease that was published on the Xbox 360, the Xbox…
After this year’s E3 in June, it felt okay to be hopeful about the future of Marvel console games.
