Marvel is looking to shift focus to games after Avengers-level misses Square EnixAfter a few flops, reports are surfacing Marvel will be pouring a huge amount of focus into its games moving forward. Marvel has become a larger-than-life entity, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe dominating big screens for over a decade, alongside other forms of media. However, Marvel has struggled to find a solid foundation for its gaming division, with misses such as Marvel\u2019s Avengers. It seems like this weakness will be ironed out, after a report from a well-known leaker claims Marvel is keenly aware of misses churned out in the past few years. Marvel Games is aware of its many flops The news comes from popular scooper, CanWeGetToast, after a Twitter user compiled a list of Marvel titles that have severely underperformed. In said list, the user mentions the recently delisted Marvel\u2019s Avengers, the underselling Marvel\u2019s Guardians of the Galaxy, and Marvel\u2019s Midnight Suns. \u201cMarvel is PAINFULLY aware of how their video games division hasn\u2019t been reaching its potential overall. There have been whispers of an internal shift for Marvel to focus on games. The new EA Black Panther and Iron Man games will be the start of a push for something BIG,\u201d replies CanWeGetToast. Ironically enough, for those keeping track, Marvel\u2019s big name mashups haven\u2019t managed to capture the same success of their big screen counterparts, with Marvel\u2019s Avengers being a massive disappointment despite huge expectations. It\u2019s been the single-player focused titles like Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man, that have captured the true success. The upcoming Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man 2 is already drawing considerable interest from Marvel and gaming fans. Time will tell how accurate CanWeGetToast\u2019s claim proves. The upcoming Marvel games Iron Man and the EA Black Panther game do not have release dates as of this writing. A Wolverine game that is in development is rumored to be the next Marvel game after Spider-Man 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
