This source doesn't have a major following, but I thought it is worth pointing out as it has been fairly accurate about Marvel leaks in the past, like a recent example:

Pretty interested in seeing where this will go if true.

 

[MarcelloF]

I'd prefer a Daredevil game, but that doesn't sound bad.

 

[Retromess]

Cap and BP together? Awesome!
WW2 setting? Not awesome!

I'll reserve judgment til we see more (if it's true) but man I'm so over WW2 settings in media...

 

[Ariakon44]

Okay, if true, that sounds pretty awesome.

 

[BabyDontHurtMe]

That sounds cool. I always wanted a historical superhero game ever since I played that Captain America game on PS3.

 

[BrucCLea13k87]

I'm so fucking down. Always happy to fuck up some Nazis.

 

[Deleted member 93062]

I just hope they can get combat down. I really hope this isn't a Guardians of the Galaxy-esque game where the dialogue/story are what carry it.

 

[purseowner]

well I like two of those words, not sure on the rest

 

[Witness]

That sounds really fucking cool and fun, love the idea.

 

[Lotus]

Sounds dope

 

[raspberrymousse]

What an original setting that would be

 

[PucePikmin]

Sounds fun, and a good opportunity for Nathan/Sully-style banter.

 

[Yerffej]

Never get tired of fucking up Nazis.

 

[Chasing]

That's a weird and unexpected combo but I'm down for that, sounds like it could be really cool.

 

[Stowaway Silfer]

Sounds dope

This was so hype

 

[Helix]

There is small short on Black Panther and Captain America and their history during the war on Marvel's YT, wonder if it's inspired by that to some extent.

 

[Callibretto]

what are the chances Logan show up too. he fought together with Cap in the comic, right?

edit: also, is this T'challa Black Panther or maybe his T'chakka?

 

[anexanhume]

I'm just happy to see Amy making games that will actually release.

 

[Mocha Joe]

Be still my beating heart

 

[OneTrueJack]

Surprised they can use Black Panther if that character is getting their own game over at EA. Unless BP isn't playable and is instead just a supporting character in a Captain America game?

Get Namor in as well while we're at it.

 

[Gavalanche]

Sounds dope

That scene was good, but a little weird. With that much firepower, why wouldn't you pull back and let them charge you? In fact, just keep dropping back, bogging them down, trying to take out as many as possible before they got close to physical combat. I feel like any competent general would have done the exact opposite they did in that scene.

 

[Nameless]

ZZZZzzzzzz. Outside of Spidey, feels like all of these super hero games are going with characters with the most boring abilities, mechanically speaking.

@ me when I can play as a Nightcrawler or Silver Surfer or Magneto. Someone who's powers translate to games in way that's both novel and interesting.

 

[HanSoloCup]

I'm down for this.

 

[SuperBoss]

Cap and fucking Black Panther? Fuck yes!

WW2? Aw fuck...no.

 

[FantasyFreak07]

Hmm... yeah, I'm down for this if it's true.

 

[Callibretto]

Cap and fucking Black Panther? Fuck yes!

WW2? Aw fuck...no.

Click to shrink...

yeah, kind of hope it's not entirely in WW2. I would be ok if it's present day but with WW2 flashback mission

 

[joshcam19]

Love the characters, love the setting, LFG

 

[Neoxon]

Either T'Challa sent back in time or his grandfather, who also met Steve & gave him the vibranium used for his shield in the comics.

 

[mreddie]

Are we getting 2 Panther games?

 

[giancarlo123x]

Im not a fan of ww2 usually but for a genre like this it's super unique and I'm down.

 

[boontobias]

2 big Black Panther games. That's absurdly cool.

 

[Convasse]

Are we getting 2 Panther games?

Either this is the best timeline or the worst

 

[Kyoufu]

Logan is probably too busy in Insomniac's game.

 

[Travis Pickle]

Oh damn. Just give me Shaolin Monks style coop and I'm all in.

 

[egg]

I'm in long as half of the enemy types aren't robots.

 

[thetrin]

That sounds dope! I am so in.

 

[Aly]

I do love when BP and Cap are together. If true, hope its T'challa time traveling.

 

[Coolluck]

I'm down but given people's aversion to WW2, I wonder what wins out. That's assuming Amy can get a game across the finish line anymore.

 

[Lotus]

Either T'Challa sent back in time or his grandfather, who also met Steve.

This rumored setting is not helping them beat the allegations of developers doing everything in their power to avoid us playing as T'Challa himself smh

This was so hype

Right?

Haha maybe, but superheroes by their own rules I suppose

 

[00Quan[T]]

If they can do the gameplay action and combat great, I'm all in for it.

 

[Fabtacular]

yeah, kind of hope it's not entirely in WW2. I would be ok if it's present day but with WW2 flashback mission

Click to shrink...

That's funny, because I feel the opposite. I like the idea of a throwback superhero game, but not super interested in the same cast of Marvel heroes we've been having shoved down our throats.

That's said, I'd be surprised if this is going to be a Black Panther game and we're also getting the EA Black Panther game. But I guess it's hard to know the timing of either one.

 

[Duxxy3]

Well that would be interesting.

 

[Alek]

Sounds okay but it doesn't sound like it inherently leads to good gameplay scenarios unless they start shooting people? Like super heroes meleeing a bunch of nazis doesn't seem like it would provide much challenge for long? Not really a lot of variety either.

Open to seeing what they do though.

it could simply be a Captain America game title, but Black Panther is a major character in it.

 

[Chasing]

If the ends up being an Invaders game this will be the most unexpected take on a Marvel game.

Not sure how many people know about the original Human Torch lol.

 

[Angie]

Who is this person?
Are they credible?

 

[Mars People]

If you are going WW2, why would you not just do the Invaders?

 

[Aiqops]

Sounds good, especially because every other superhero game is modern or future timelines.

 

[Theorry]

I like it
