The beauty of Marvel Super Heroes is the richness of the universe it draws from. But it’s the Marvel charm that will captivate you.
As far as gameplay goes it’s entirely Lego as usual: puzzles block your path through the world, and so you’ll need to smash the scenery before rebuilding it into useful contraptions to help you advance. If you’re seeking something with a more joyful tone then Lego Marvel Super Heroes is here to save you. The fight engine itself is deep, but even a button-masher can easily activate some absurdly entertaining abilities, such as The Flash catapulting an opponent through time and smashing them into the Sphinx’s nose.Ĭomic book movies have a habit of going a bit dark and moody. In battle, characters hurl each other through the scenery with a sense of weight and power rarely seen in games. Each new chapter quickly introduces new perspectives and classic locales from the DC universe, making this a speedy round trip of several decades of comic book history. Ludicrously well-produced cutscenes tell the story, which feels notably on-the-button with recent favourites like Supergirl, Green Arrow, and Black Canary taking major roles alongside Batman and Harley Quinn. Injustice 2 is perhaps the best presented fighter ever made. Yep, prepare yourself for a gleefully bonkers plot. A fighting game based on DC comics, it reimagines Batman’s universe as a world where Superman went bad. If superheroes beating seven bells out of each other is what you like then there’s no better example than Injustice 2. The big question, of course, is can Hulk do a fastball special with Wolverine? (Yes, he can, and yes, it’s awesome). With a roster of over 20 characters there’s a colossal number of combinations to discover and make use of.
So, for example, Storm can fire lighting bolts towards Captain America, who will then deflect them off his shield and into the path of their enemies. Every character has a unique Fusion ability that alters depending on who they’re teamed up with. While your objectives are simple dungeon-crawling fare, there is surprising depth to the combat system. But not only was this the basis for an immensely successful Marvel movie, this event was also rendered in playable form in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2.Īn isometric brawler with just a hint of Diablo to it, Ultimate Alliance 2 asks you to put together a group of four heroes and fight for their side of the Superhero Registration battle. This was the focus of the famous 2006 Civil War storyline. Instead of working together, they begin to fight among themselves. Sometimes, though, heroes don’t see eye to eye. It’s a classic story of uniting against impossible odds. In 1992, it brought together dozens of superheroes to team up against Thanos and his impossibly powerful Infinity Gauntlet. Infinity War is one of Marvel comics’ largest crossover events.
