Marvel video games are not unfamiliar. Although it is true that ‘The House of Ideas’ has bet on a huge variety of concepts, with more or less success, seeing a Marvel video game in the market is not unusual, although it is if it is announced overnight. Yesterday, NetEase announced Marvel Mystic Mayhem, a new free RPG for mobile devices that, emulating Marvel’s Midnight Suns, will delve into the darker side of comics with Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, or Moon Knight as protagonists.
Although it is still unknown the type of project it is, at least from the purely playable side, we do know that it will be a smaller project that will be released in the year 2025 for iOS and Android. In fact, this will be the second collaboration between Marvel and NetEase, who have already set December 6th as the definitive release date of Marvel Rivals, their new free to play game.
What is Marvel Mystic Mayhem?
As far as we know, the gameplay system of Marvel Mystic Mayhem will focus on tactical action, where players will need to carefully plan their moves and attacks to defeat enemies in closed dungeons. The combat dynamics, combined with the unique powers of each character, promise to offer a challenging and similar experience to Firaxis’ game, albeit without its obvious style and experience.
However, while the character roster will showcase the most mystical side of Marvel, where we will have to fight against Nightmare, one of Doctor Strange’s main enemies, or the Ghost Rider, NetEase will not neglect other visible faces of the comics. We will be able to control heavyweights like Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Juggernaut, Man-Thing, and Mister Negative, among others. This wide variety of characters will allow players to form teams of three to engage in strategic battles using energy extracted from the Mindscape.
With the release of Marvel Mystic Mayhem planned for 2025, Marvel continues to consolidate its presence in the world of mobile video games. Along with titles like Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra and possible news about a spin-off of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, the future of Marvel in video games promises to be exciting and varied for players and superhero fans.
