Marvel Strategy Game Coming to…Facebook?!?

News

Saw this unusual announcement on Marvel’s Facebook feed:

The Avengers are taking to Facebook to enlist your help in preventing a mysterious cataclysmic event!

“Marvel: Avengers Alliance,” the first Facebook strategy game from Marvel, sees the Avengers fight alongside other heroes such as Wolverine, Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four. Along the way, you’ll have to face off against classic villains Doctor Doom, Magneto, Loki, the Green Goblin and more in order to save the day!

You can check out the teaser trailer for the game below, and keep your eyes peeled to Marvel.com and the official Facebook page of “Marvel: Avengers Alliance” for more info on the game, launching soon!

Skitch Commentary:The trailers hints at a lot of cool characters, and I’m really curious about this game. I am hoping it’s like X-Assault...that was a web-based game from a few years ago that got demolished during one of Marvel’s copyright rampages. It still is one of the most fun games I’ve ever played, and had some strategy elements to it.

I have no idea if Avengers Alliance will be any good, but I definitely have to check it out!
