The LEGO games from Travellers' Tales has landed another license: the Marvel 616 comic universe. From Marvel's website:
"LEGO Marvel Super Heroes" complements the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes construction toy collection, which brings the characters, vehicles and action of Marvel’s renowned universe to the world of LEGO build-and-play adventure. There are currently eight iconic scenes from the X-Men, Iron Man and Spider-Man franchises available and more construction sets tied to the new "Iron Man 3" feature film will launch later this spring.
"LEGO Marvel Super Heroes" offers an original storyline in which Nick Fury calls upon Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor, Spider-Man, Wolverine and other heroes spanning the Marvel Universe to save Earth from such threats as the vengeance of Loki and the hunger of Galactus, Devourer of the Worlds. LEGO and Marvel fans will enjoy classic LEGO videogame adventure and humor, while playing as their favorite Marvel characters.
The LEGO games so far have been easy, fun, and comedic experiences. LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes was the best Superman game ever; LEGO Lord Of The Rings delivered on an open-world Middle Earth with clever stand-ins for smoking and drinking. The Harry Potter iterations are arguably better than the actual movie tie-in games. If Travellers' Tale pedigree is any sign of quality, the Marvel setting should include plenty of winks and nods to actual fans.
