Electronic Arts and Marvel Announce Long-Term Partnership, Three-Game Deal

It is now a certainty: the agreement between Marvel Games and Electronic Arts will not be limited to Marvel's Iron Man whose existence was formalized last September. Indeed, the two parties announce via a press release that they have signed a long-term agreement including at least two other action-adventure games whose identity has not been filtered. We only know that the three titles will each have their own story which, of course, will be part of the MCU. This summer, journalist Jeff Grubb (VentureBeat) indicated that an open-world based on Black Panther was in development at EA Seattle. The guy having already proven his reliability in the past, there is a chance that it is one of the two projects mentioned in the official press release.



While waiting to learn more on the subject, we recall that Marvel's Iron Man has been entrusted to EA Motive (which is already at work on the remake of Dead Space). "Today, this superhero is one of the most iconic in the history of entertainment and it is a real honor for us to create a video game inspired by it, said Olivier Proulx, executive producer. We have the opportunity to add our touch to the story so that it is as unique as it is new. Marvel encourages us to create something new. The creative freedom that is given to us is very stimulating for the team."

At the time, we were told that "this new collaboration between Marvel and Electronic Arts [was] very promising and [that] Iron Man [was] the first title in a long series of new games." So these weren't empty words.
