Rumor: Deal between Embracer Group and Marvel

If its about Marvel Heroes goes into video games, then the rumor mill The company has now denied that Ubisoft is working on a game based on the Blade character, but rumors about EA’s work on a title for Black Panther and a new game for Iron Man continue to circulate.

Now a new rumor has surfaced that goes back to a multi-million dollar deal in May: a few months ago, the Swedish Embracer Group bought numerous brands and European studios from Square Enix, including Crystal Dynamics. They, in turn, are for the flop Marvel’s Avengers (buy now €30.86) responsible, who was actually buried long ago – right?

Embracer Group and Marvel: Can we expect more superhero games?

The game about the heroes doesn’t seem to be that dead yet, at least when it comes to Avengers leaker Miller. he wrote on twitter not just that they’re still working on the Avengers game behind the scenes, but behind the deal between the Embracer Group and Marvel there could be a whole lot more:

“From the outside, it looks like Embracer is in the process of negotiating a deal with Marvel that goes well beyond Avengers (which is understandable given that recent news suggests that EA and Ubisoft have new Marvel content in the works) . I suspect Avengers will live on and that will be announced when the deal between Embracer and Marvel is finalized.”

Precise what it could be about Miller not, but emphasized again that the Avengers title I guess I haven’t given up yet: “The acquisition of Crystal Dynamics is official and I’m told that work on Avengers is proceeding relatively unabated. Things are subject to change, of course, but that’s where we are right now.”
