Off the top of my head, I could see the Heroes for Hire or maybe even Fantastic Four matching Hennig’s style. It’s unknown what corner of the Marvel Universe the game will take place in, but it will apparently feature a “completely original story.” Whether that means a new story for existing characters, or perhaps entirely original characters, remains to be seen. Today it was announced that Skydance Media and Amy Hennig are developing a “narrative-driven, blockbuster action-adventure game” set in the Marvel Universe. It was hinted Hennig would be working on a game based on an existing IP, but we didn’t know which one exactly – until now. Following her departure from EA, there was talk of her setting up an indie studio, but it would later come out that she was heading up a new video game branch of Hollywood movie studio Skydance Media. She joined Visceral Games to work on a new Uncharted-like Star Wars title, codenamed Ragtag, but that game (and Visceral Games itself) were eventually canned. The Marvel vs Capcom series is known for its vibrant and colorful palette and features many favorites from the Marvel Universe (such as Captain America and Spider-man) as well as favorites from Capcom properties such as Street Fighter. Uncharted co-creator Amy Hennig has walked a rather rough and winding road since leaving Naughty Dog in 2014 amidst rumors of behind-the-scenes power plays. Marvel vs Capcom is a 2D fighting game created by Capcom, masterminds of the legendary Street Fighter series.
