Missed Opportunites
New images have surfaced online from a recently canceled Marvel MMO game. The new images show off the menus and impressive customization options.
The leaked images were posted online by Ramiro Galan, a principal designer at Pixelkings, who has worked on the development of the game. They reveal that players would have had the choice of which faction to join, these factions were Avengers, SHIELD, Fantastic Four, and X-Men. They also show off impressive customization options including the character’s build, outfit, as well as a variety of superpowers. The player would have then been greeted with their own comic book cover.
The cancellation of the Marvel MMO game was announced last week by the parent company, EG7. “EG7 today announced it will be discontinuing the development of the Marvel project at Daybreak Games,” said the company in a statement “Based on the re-evaluation of the development risk profile, size of the investment, and the long-term product portfolio strategy for the group, the board has decided to change the development priorities and reallocate resources within the group to focus on alternative long-term projects.”
The game was originally announced back in November of 2021 without a name or a release window. It still remains unclear when the game would have been released had it not been canceled.
