Marvel Diving Deeper Into The Realm Of Video Games, Working Title Announced By Ex-Blizzard Devs
With the incredible success of Insomniac’s Marvel’s Spider-Man just a few months back, and the surprise announcement of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 headed to the Switch this coming year, it seems Marvel is still determined to push more of their universe into the world of gaming. In a recent video of from ex-Blizzard developers lead by Hearthstone director, Ben Brode, the funded development studio, Second Dinner, announces they have partnered with Marvel for their debut game.
The announcement video for Second Dinner receiving necessary funds to see their new project to completion can be found below:
The video quickly turns into a “recruitment” video with the 5-man team attempting to corral would-be developers to come join in on the fun, but the small drop of the Marvel partnership is enough to have fans eagerly excited. We’re not sure what type of game lies ahead for the new team over at Second Dinner, but with that kind of talent our hype should be high.
There’s reason to believe the game could be some sort of card-based game given the experience from the studio’s lead man, Ben Brode, and his work with Hearthstone. One thing is for sure, with talent thriving from former Blizzard Entertainment staff, there’s a solid chance it will be a title to look forward to.
Stay tuned for more details once they begin to surface. What style of game can we expect? Which characters form Marvel will be included? When can we expect the game to release? All of these questions and more will be answered once the new studio is ready to reveal their first project.
Love Is a Long Road, the Tom Petty song in the GTA 6 trailer, saw a 36,979% stream increase after Rockstar’s reveal this week. Week-on-week Spotify data suggests that, but we’re sure it’s trending similarly on Apple Music and others.
Rockstar and the streaming service released an official Grand Theft Auto Radio playlist with six hours of hits from ZZ Top, Dr. Dre, Megadeth, and others. You can hear it here. Ever wanted to listen to Tom Petty this week?
This week’s Game Awards—what to expect? Geoff Keighley is keeping most announcements under wraps, but he has teased an update on Atlus’ long-awaited Metaphor: ReFantazio. The Persona team’s latest project may be released in 2024, according to rumors.
The title returned this summer after being revealed eons ago, but details are scarce. A new trailer should show more story, gameplay, and systems, as well as a possible launch date. Want to see more of this? The link will tell you when the Game Awards are.
If you play video games, you’ve probably played Skyrim, Bethesda’s decade-old open-world RPG. It’s become a meme after endless rereleases. The company wants to sell paid, player-created mods again after not getting the message from players.
Bethesda tested selling Skyrim mods on Steam in 2015, generously giving modders 25% of the proceeds. After Steam’s 30% platform fee, Bethesda would receive 45%, the “current industry standard.”. After fan backlash, Bethesda removed paid mods, and Steam refunded all purchases.
In subsequent years, Bethesda’s Creation Club added user-created content to Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition, requiring that it not violate lore. Bethesda could also release official Creation Club content on PlayStation.
The developer revealed Bethesda Game Studios Creations and a major update for the oldest RPG today. Players can still upload free mods, but creators can now apply for the Verified Creator Program. Certified modders can charge for their work. Since paid moderators no longer have lore-friendly restrictions, expect chaos.
This is already upsetting the community, and the line between official Creation Club content and moderators is blurring. The fact that paid mods disable PlayStation Trophies but not free Creation content is a disaster.
What do you think of Skyrim’s sorry state? Still playing? How’s the PlayStation Creation Club content?
