Is a Daredevil game finally happening? Marvel partnership reignites rumors Netflix, Marvel | Skydance MediaWith Marvel\u2019s Guardians of The Galaxy and Avengers bringing players the chance to team up as iconic heroes, fans of Daredevil may finally have their prayers answered as Marvel\u2019s merger with Skydance Media reignites previous rumors. Here\u2019s everything we know so far about the potential \u201cman without fear\u201d adventure. Outside of their big-screen domination with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the long-running comic media titan have also taken players by storm in the last 3 years, with the unrelenting success of Insomniac Games\u2019 Spider-Man. The recently released Guardians of The Galaxy adventure is \u201ca damn good space opera\u201d according to team Dexerto\u2019s review. The demand for more Insomniac titles continues too, as Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine are on the way to next-gen consoles. But what about \u201cthe Devil of Hell\u2019s Kitchen\u201d himself? Could it be time for Daredevil to be done justice with some next-gen enhancements? Attempts at a Daredevil solo adventure have been made before, during the sixth generation of consoles. Now, previous rumors have re-emerged into the spotlight as Marvel will work with Skydance Media on a new \u201cnarrative-driven\u201d project. When will the Daredevil game be released? At the time of writing, the notion of Daredevil appearing in Marvel and Skydance Media\u2019s upcoming project is purely speculation. With no official time frame disclosed by either party, it is safe to assume that the project is in the very early stages of pre-production. As no time frame has been disclosed as of yet by either party, what we can look into is the previous leaks that added fuel to the fire of this potential project. Originally posted back in February of 2020, the project is rumored for a \u201c2022\u201d release window for \u201cPC, Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5, and definitely not Switch.\u201d Looks like we are getting a Daredevil game pic.twitter.com\/qS5hnIVdZj \u2014 Alan \u2283\u222a\u2229\u2abd (@AJCI282002) October 29, 2021 Interestingly, the same leak also details a single-player Wolverine game to be \u201cearly, early development\u201d and that player shouldn\u2019t expect a \u201crelease for 2-3 years.\u201d Now that Insomniac Games have announced their upcoming Wolverine title, perhaps there is something to found in the foundations of this leak. Back in May 2020, acclaimed voice actor Troy Baker also hinted he could be involved with a Daredevil project. What will it be about? Cinematically, the character of Matt Murdock\/Daredevil hasn\u2019t been seen since Season 3 of the titular Netflix show. Rumored to show up in the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home, the character\u2019s appearance could jump-start Daredevil\u2019s popularity once again. As the Square Enix Avengers and Guardians of The Galaxy games have taken influence from the MCU, both aesthetically and story-wise, it wouldn\u2019t be surprising to see the developers take a similar approach. However, according to a report from Deadline, the project will be a \u201ccompletely original story.\u201d Former Uncharted creative director and writer Amy Hennig made the announcement, saying that \u201cIt\u2019s an honor to be able to tell an original story with all the humanity, complexity, and humor that makes Marvel characters so enduring.\u201d Rumored gameplay features In the aforementioned leak, details of the game refer to the setting as \u201cmodern-day Chicago\u201d, which is a very different turn away from the character\u2019s familiar setting of Hell\u2019s Kitchen, New York. The villain could potentially be an \u201colder\u201d Bullseye, who is \u201cnew to the game\u201d, while Daredevil himself \u201chas been at this for quite some time.\u201d Read More: Marvel\u2019s Midnight Suns: Everything we know – As for the world itself, free roam may be limited to night-time only, with \u201cbarely any missions taking place in the day.\u201d As Daredevil is more of a nocturnal character akin to Batman, this would make sense and hone into a more Arkham-style feel, which can also be said of the combat according to the leaker. The size of the map will also take \u201cfull advantage\u201d of next-gen SSD hardware. Players will apparently be able to customize Daredevil to an extent, with a \u201cskill tree\u201d system, again, similar to that of the Arkham series. Will it tie into other Marvel games? While the developers have stated this currently untitled project, is an original story, this doesn\u2019t necessarily rule out the potential of cross-overs with other Marvel titles. Insomniac Games have stated that their Spider-Man titles take place in their own canon, which Wolverine is also thought to be part of. The Spider-Man games also made reference to the Avengers, but not the same heroic team seen in the Square Enix canon. 2K Games are working on Ultimate Alliance\u2019s successor, Midnight Suns, which means Daredevil could appear in a plethora of universes or storylines. We\u2019ll be keeping track of this exciting project as it develops, so be sure to keep checking back in with us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
