In a recent announcement, EA and Marvel confirmed that a new single-player Iron Man game is under development. The new game is being developed by EA’s Motive Studios and is still in its early stages of production.
Iron Man has been one of the most beloved characters of Marvel Studios. It has been years since the iconic character bid farewell to the silver screen. Since the character’s departure, fans have been eagerly waiting for an announcement regarding the future of the flying superhero.
Robert Downey Jr. played the part of Iron Man in the Marvel movies. It was because of him that fans all over the world fell in love with the character.
Iron Man is set to return in a new game
While there has been no update on a new movie starring a new Iron Man, Marvel has confirmed a new game by the same name. Like the Spider-Man series from Insomniac games, Iron Man will get his own game.
The game will be developed by EA’s Motive Studios, which is also working on the upcoming Dead Space remake.
A tweet on Motive’s Twitter account confirms that the game will be a single-player action-adventure game. Marvel has generally garnered more praise for its single-player games. Spider-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy have been fan favorites, which can’t be said for Avengers as it was multiplayer-focused.
EA’s official press release
“We’re thrilled to share that an all-new single-player, third-person, action-adventure Iron Man video game is now in early development at Montreal-based Motive Studio.”
“The team is being led by Olivier Proulx, who brings experience working on past Marvel titles like Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, and is joined by a dedicated team of passionate industry veterans including Ian Frazier, Maëlenn Lumineau, and JF Poirier at the studio,” said the official press release.
The release goes on to say, “This is an exciting new collaboration between Marvel and Electronic Arts, with Iron Man being the first of several new games.” This could mean that EA has several new Marvel games lined up for development in the upcoming future.
