The Iron Man game by motive is a single-player, third-person action adventure game "The game is currently in the pre-production phase and we’ll have more updates as we get further along in development."

Marvel Entertainment and Motive Studio team up for an all-new Iron Man video game

Marvel Entertainment and Motive Studio team up for an all-new Iron Man video game, now in development.

[Sybrix]

An Anthem reskin?

 

[Hugare]

Marvel saturation coming to videogames now

Years ago I would have been hyped. But today, nah.

Motive seems like a good pick tho. Squadrons was good, and they are definitely going to use what they learned with flying controls there in Iron Man.

 

[Chupanibre]

Still no Iron Man and X-O Manowar in Heavy Metal remake

 

[DeepEnigma]

Well... that's an anti-climactic announcement.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Yay, superheroes.

 

[Elder Legend]

Meh... I am so sick of all these Superhero games to be completely honest.

The only games I am interested in that are Superheroes is Wolverine for the PS5 and Suicide Squad. That's it.

Don't care for Spider-Man because I cannot stand the character himself despite hearing praise about the Spider-Man game. His just not interesting to me.

Gotham Knights looks like hot doo doo.

Guardians of the Galaxy was the last good superhero game I've played.

 

[GymWolf]

Ea?

 

[Wandering Leopard]

The character has more than enough tools for them to implement interesting gameplay ideas, but I don't have faith in EA.

 

[Bragr]

Iron Man could be cool, but it has to be funny open-world with really fast flying. I wanna fly into space and shoot rockets down to Earth. Stuff like that.

Either way, this is 3 years out.

I'll at least give Gotham Knights a pass as those characters haven't been overused to oblivion. Iron Man has been shat out of every medium to the point of complete exhaustion.

 

[eastcoastkody]

Well... that's an anti-climactic announcement.

if only there was a Marvel games showcase that this could've been in

 

[The Stig]

Ive always wanted an iron man game. Make it along the lines or the batman arkham games but with more advanced gadgets.

yes i know there was a game on 360. i heard it wasnt great.

 

[Nickolaidas]

Hyped. While the movies have been absolute dog shit lately, as well as the tv shows - especially the tv shows - Marvel heroes in video games never looked better.

 

[wvnative]

It's taken far too long for a genuine attempt at an Iron Man game, and can't wait to see how they pull it off.

Too bad it's likely years away, stop announcing games still in pre-production.

 

[Esca]

In sure I'll change my tune if the game looks cool but I'm getting superhero's lately. Though I'd like a hulk ultimate destruction

 

[AtomicStarving]

Instead of Marvel making one high quality game at a time, they just decided to throw money at random studios to make one thousand games, no matter what. I don't know about that...

 

[Flabagast]

Someone kills marvel please

 

[Punished Miku]

I'll pick it up on Gamepass I guess.

 

[AJUMP23]

Do not care. Better than the last of us for the third time I guess.

 

[Sleepwalker]

An Anthem reskin?

I mean, yes? Make it single player and all they need is a good story. Anthem gameplay was good

 

[hemo memo]

The Iron Man game by motive is a single-player,…

You had me at single-player.

 

[adamsapple]

Grubb was right all along.

 

[Nickolaidas]

Grubb was right all along.

Yeah, if people actually look past their bias due to their love for their favorite plastic toy, they can see that some 'insiders' are *actual* insiders.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

People complaining about too much of this or that. You're complaining about MORE games based on cool concepts? When it involves superheroes or special abilities sometimes developers get to be their most creative.

 

[legacy24]

the flying was the best part of Anthem if they add that to this I will play it

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Oh goodie.....another superhero game that noone asked for

 

[Fbh]

As a concept Iron has always felt like a good fit, so this could be fun.

But it's EA and it's still in early development.....so see you in 2026-7 I guess.

 

[wvnative]

In sure I'll change my tune if the game looks cool but I'm getting superhero's lately. Though I'd like a hulk ultimate destruction

I'm secretly hoping once the deal is done, Microsoft at least TRIES to relicense the Activision superhero games for BC.

 

[A.Romero]

Ironman needs to be open world and be able to fly very very fast. If it's something like The Avengers game then it's probably doomed.

 

[Thirty7ven]

Can’t make an interesting Iron Man game, it’s just not possible.

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

A lot of people on gaming forums will hate it.

I am looking forward to it though, but just like the Skydance game I will wait and see on the quality. I trust IGs after Spider-Man and Eidos after GoTG, but the other ones have to prove themselves.

 

[R6Rider]

Can’t make an interesting Iron Man game, it’s just not possible.

The VR game is actually a lot of fun.

 

[Warnen]

Should have had anthem team do it, only thing in anthem they got right.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

Can’t make an interesting Iron Man game, it’s just not possible.

Ye of little faith.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

Damn you comic book people. Damn you to hell.

 

[Moses85]

Disney still has faith in EA after the Battlefront disaster?

 

[kyussman]

Someone kills marvel please

Disney are doing their best to.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Greatttt, another superhero game, yippee!

Fortunately since they have been sold Eidos Montreal won't have to keep working on a turd Marvel property. They are way too talented to waste their time on that.

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

To each their own. What we do know is that Embracer wants to keep working with "turd Marvel properties" so you may end up being disappointed.

Why not today?

Super heroes are amazing IP for video games? So many different avenues to go down.

Guardians of the Galaxy was the last good superhero game I've played.

Out of curiosity what are ALL these super hero games that have come out and are bad in the last 8 or so years with a AAA budget?

I can only think of a handful.

Batman Arkham knight
Spider-Man 1 & Miles
Avengers
Guardians of the Galaxy

Out if those 5 only one of them was worse than Good. And IMO 3 of them are excellent.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Everybody pretty much knows they're going to be using that amazing work they did on Anthem for this game, right!? The flight and gameplay mechanics were solid, and I see them being taken to a whole other level to show off Iron Man's power and skillset. Shit's going to be so nuts.

I want Batman Arkham but with Iron Man. Get it done!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Robot Carnival]

Tony Stark already died to save the world. can't we spare him the even worse fate of being an EA game?

 

[Barakov]

An Anthem reskin?

If this Iron Man game ends up being good, then I guess Anthem will be good for something.

 

[Raven77]

If the suit is not ray traced, we riot.

 

[ReBurn]

I'm not even upset
