SECRET INVASION: Ubisoft Announces Avengers Game
The world is going Avengers crazy with the nearly $1 billion (so far) grossing feature film. Now Ubisoft has announced plans for a new video game that will be based on the Secret Invasion Marvel Comics event.
Reports AP, "Ubisoft Entertainment announced a partnership with Marvel Entertainment to create a game based on the popular Marvel superhero posse. The game will be titled 'Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth' and will be released for both the upcoming Wii U console from Nintendo Co. and the camera-based Kinect system for the Xbox 360 from Microsoft Corp. 'The idea that we're making a motion-control version of 'The Avengers' is a unique proposition if you compare that to superhero games of the past,' said Tony Key, Ubisoft's vice president of sales and marketing, in making the announcement to The Associated Press. 'This is the perfect type of game for that because these characters are very action oriented. They're always fighting and throwing things."
The game, the piece continues, will have the heroes taking on genetically altered Skrull aliens, and there will be more than 20 characters from the Marvel Universe.
