Marvel: Ultimate Alliance – new heroes and villains on XBL
Activision will unleash a set of new heroes and villains on Xbox Live Marketplace for Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. The expansion pack will feature eight new playable characters, namely:
- The Incredible Hulk
- Magneto
- Hawkeye
- Sabretooth
- Doctor Doom
- Cyclops
- Nightcrawler
- Venom
Of course, the expansion pack also means new signature powers, skins, dialog, conversations, and achievement points. The downloads will be available by April 2007 via the Xbox Live Marketplace online gaming service, and three different kinds of packs will await players:
- The Hero Pack and Villain Pack will each be 500 Microsoft points (US$ 6.25).
- The Combined Hero and Villain Pack will be 800 Microsoft points (a better bargain at US$ 10.00).
- Heroes and Villains gamer pic packs will also be available for 80 Microsoft points each (US$ 1.00).
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance currently features a cast of more than 140 Marvel characters and a playable cast of 20 super heroes including Deadpool, the Human Torch, Iceman, Spider-Man, Captain America, Storm, Wolverine, Colossus, Silver Surfer, and Elektra. You control a team of four heroes (you can always swap a hero for another unlocked playable hero), taking them to well-known comic book settings like Atlantis, the Shield Heli-Carrier, and the Skrull home world.
The game has won several awards, including Video Game of the Year from Wizard Magazine and Best Story (PS3) from IGN.
