Lego has pretty much dipped into every single nerdy franchise in existence for the last 3 years. They have created many a film and game including DC characters and Star Wars. It seems only appropriate that they would get involved with Marvel Super Heroes in their next gaming franchise.
In typical Lego fashion they have created a captivating, hysterical, and clever story line to follow everyones favorite heroes. Due out this October for every current generation system and the PC, the new game features over a hundred playable Marvel characters and loads of familiar Marvel locations. Players will be able to take charge of Thor, Human Torch, Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine and even loads of villains as they visit Asgard, Stark Tower, the Savage Land, Asteroid M, the X-Men School, the SHIELD Helicarrier, and just about any other iconic location you can imagine.IGN states “In all, you’ll be able to play through 18 heroes in story mode, with the option to unlock many more for free play later. They’ll be unlocked as they have been in recent games; some become available through the course of play, others you’ll have to find and buy.

You’ll find the new characters in the hub world, which is basically the Marvel version of Manhattan. You can wander around the streets, interacting with the civilians and cars that populate the word, or head off to any of a number of points of interest — from the Raft to the Baxter Building to the Avengers’ Mansion to Central Park. You can even visit the editor of the Daily Bugle to pick up specific challenges to complete across the city. If you look especially hard, you might even find Deadpool’s private room, where you can find the comic book viewer.”
There will be plenty of new information leaked this week at E3.
