Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Allies with Retail

The whole superhero gang is gathering at your local game store.

The wait to command an army of superheroes is over, as Marvel: Ultimate Alliance has shipped to retail and is now available. The game consists of a formula similar to X-Men Legends and The Rise of Apocalypse -- meaning it's a top-down brawler that sends wave after wave of bad guys that need a good ass kicking.

Players assume the roles of more than 20 Marvel superheroes including Spider-Man, Wolverine, Blade, and Captain America, and through their actions determine the fate of both planet Earth and the Marvel universe. The game features total team customization, where players create their own team name, icon, and vehicle, as well as establish their team reputation as they play throughout the story. Battle the world's most notorious Marvel super villains in the air, underwater, and on the ground. The storyline is designed open, and the missions that you choose to accept affect the outcome of the Marvel Universe. Also featured are competitive and co-operative multiplayer modes.
