Marvel RPG Soars Onto Mobile Devices Next Year
Marvel's partnership with mobile developer, Kabam, continues to march on like an inspired U.S. soldier following Captain America into the fray. Kabam already has a fighting game starring these heroic heavy hitters on the way by the end of the year, called Marvel: Contest of Champions. The next product of these teams' collaboration continues in 2015 with a yet-unnamed RPG based on Marvel's properties.
Kabam's Marvel free-to-play RPG will be playable on mobile devices by fall of next year. The developer's hefty catalog of mobile games includes Kingdoms of Camelot and Stormfall: Age of War.
Our Take
There are a lot of Marvel fans in the world, and many of them have phones. It makes sense that Marvel would want to continue offering free-to-play games to these fans, especially if Marvel: Contest of Champions' fighting gameplay turns out to be a success. Of course, we'll have a better idea of Marvel and Kabam's collaborative potential when we try out Contest of Champions later this year.
