Finding the Perfect Marvel Comic Book/Video Game Developer Combo

Let’s play a fun game. We all love comic books. We all love video games. As we’ve all talked about before, we especially love it when the two come together. The intersection between the two is always getting better and better. Sometimes the right comic book finds the perfect video game developer who can put you in the boots of your favorite superhero. With games like Marvel’s Avengers, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and even Fortnite’s recent Nexus event dawning upon us I figured we could look at a few other Marvel heroes and pair them up with some of our favorite video game studios. X-Men – Bioware

Okay, okay, I know what you’re thinking. Bioware hasn’t had the best track record lately, but I’m not ready to lose faith in the team that gave us Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect. I just can’t do it. This is one that the team at BNP and I have talked about before and there are just so many possibilities for them taking on the X-Men. Just imagine it, an X-Men RPG where you’re a new mutant discovering their powers. Like classic Bioware, you can customize your mutant from their looks to their mutant powers. You can even choose whether to align yourself with three groups – The Brotherhood, the X-Men, or the Morlocks. Now, an X-Men game like this has been attempted before (check the terrible, terrible X-Men Destiny) but with Bioware’s knack for worldbuilding and narrative, this is a game they can do right.
