LEGO Marvel Super Heroes confirmed

LEGO games have been going from strength to strength since LEGO Star Wars back in 2005. Recently we have been treated to Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings being lovingly recreated using the popular child’s toy. DC Comics have also had success with Batman and friends in last year’s LEGO Batman 2 DC Heroes. They have attracted so much attention that Disney thought it was time to weigh in and today, Marvel along with the LEGO group and TT Games announce LEGO Marvel Super Heroes for all formats.

Many would have suspected the video game would be following since we saw a new range of Marvel Heroes hit the toy shops in 2012, however it is nice for it to be confirmed. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes will be launching in Autumn and will feature Nick Fury – head of S.H.I.E.L.D along with the Avengers Thor, Iron Man and Hulk as well as Spider-Man and Wolverine. They will aim to defeat Loki and Galactus, Devourer of the Worlds.

Confirmed environments feature in the game include takes on X Men, Spider-Man and the latest Marvel film – Iron Man 3. TT Games will be at the helm of the title and will bring over 100 characters to all current consoles and will be published by Warner Brother Games.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes will launch on (Deep Breath), Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation Vita, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii U and PC in Autumn 2013.
