He did. Just in the worst possible way. He was exclusive to the Wii version. From what I can remember, they just ripped him straight out of X-Men Legends II and place him into the game. It felt like you were using fan mod.
So did I! I loved Cyclops was great in MUA1. He was the first peice of DLC i'd ever bought. They actually gave him a bunch of new techniques and features compared to X-Men Legends II.
His inclusion MUA2's Wii version was so bittersweet. I tried desperately to enjoy that version before I finally tapped out. It's actually kinda hard to find any footage or pictures of him in MUA2 because nobody played that version. The only thing I could find was somebody unlocking him--
Holy cow! I played it on the PlayStation didn't know he was on the Wii version! Thanks for this info I legit had no idea about this.
You can also get the first PC version physically and mod the characters in + the PSP exclusive characters: Black Widow, Captain Marvel, and Ronin.
If they time it right, We could get one like a Secret Warriors team based on the recent-ish women-focused show/products they've been doing:
Captain Marvel
Quake
Squirrel Girl
Ms Marvel (Kamala)
America Chavez
Lockjaw (if they decide not to rush the Inhumans train, plus he's been with Kamala for a bit in the comics)
Inferno
Patroit
I wouldn't doubt them trying this if MArvel is super serious about actually pushing this line to the girl's market.
Do we think villains are going to be playable? Magneto is who i'd want the most.
Game will stop feeling like Avengers Ultimate Alliance 3 when these two finally revealed in the game.
I agree. Hoping for the Fantastic Four and a ton of mutants.

Man I'm so excited to have this game on the switch, the announcement will go down as one of my favorites of all time, still can't believe how no one has a clue that this was being announced the way it was.
And depending on the release(right before or after infinity war part 2), it will most likely perform very well.

I can't wait til whenever they're ready to start unveiling more roster picks. That'll probably just drive up my desires for this game all the more so.
Oh, and since this is another Team Ninja x Nintendo collab, I practically am expecting "Nintendo-themed" costumes for a lot of the characters.

With how hard Marvel Games has been pushing how they've got Fantastic 4 characters now, I'd be surprised and pretty disappointed if the Fantastic 4 don't make the cut eventually, whether at launch or after.
Scott and Reed with those DCAU bodies.

"I am the beam! I am the EYE! I AM CYCLOPS!"
I could also see them bringing in the Champions, whose lineup has included:
Ms Marvel (Kamala)
Spider-Man (Miles)
Brawn (Amadeus Cho, formerly Totally Awesome Hulk)
Viv Vision
Young Cyclops
Nova (Sam Alexander)
Ironheart
Snowguard
Wasp (Nadia Van Dyne)
Patriot
Falcon (Joaquin Torres)
Red Locust
Bombshell
Pinpoint
A team of primarily Legacy heroes is probably very key to the MCU's long term plans. Adding 4-5 of the more prominent members might be a good idea.
Correction that is the New Champions, classic version included Hercules, Iceman and several others
I just used the name as it appears on the books.
The version you're referring to is the "Champions of Los Angeles" - Hercules, Iceman, Angel, Black Widow and Ghost Rider.
Ok so here's a fun one for discussion. We have a Marvel team that's one of the only Japanese teams, and has good prominence due to the alternate universe movie and tv series but as a result don't have a direct tie to standard marvel. If you haven't realized by now I'm talking bout Big Hero 6. So on the one hand they are popular enough to be a pick for most games without being mcu, but on the other hand the popular version isn't as heavily marvel tied. So who know if they'll happen in the game or not but there are a few possibilities we can discuss if they do happen
The first is they go with a straight up comic lineup, with those versions and powers(likely led by Sunfire), while odds are boosted by the current versions popularity this pick would be more as a dev team pick to allow for an actual Japanese team in the game as it's being made by jap devs. In some ways this would be really fun as they aren't all tech based like the movies(also silver samurai would be fun) and Fredzilla is an actual Kaiba which would be a fun power character
Second: movie lineup, but with some characters getting their comic powers and a look much closer to the comics
Or third: the straight up movie versions as bonus characters maybe pulled from the multiverse
Just some thoughts and fun discussion

I wonder what character choice will confuse until we see them in the MCU 2-3 years down the line a la Rocket Raccoon in MvC3.
