June Cover Revealed – Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order
More than a decade ago, the X-Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance games lit up our gaming screens, fulfilling the fantasies of comic book fans everywhere with the chance to build our own superhero teams and beat down the bad guys in rollicking action/RPG adventures. Then, like they were snapped out of existence, the series disappeared.
Now an unexpected partnership between Marvel Games, Nintendo, and Koei Tecmo/Team Ninja is bringing Ultimate Alliance back to life. The new Switch exclusive releases on July 19, and we had the opportunity to visit Nintendo’s North American headquarters and experience the game for ourselves. We got exclusive hands-on access with a bevy of heroes, saw some brand-new playable characters, and spoke with all the involved teams about how this unlikely team-up came to be. If you’re riding high on the Marvel excitement train the way we are, you won’t want to miss our exclusive look at the game, which headlines the new June issue of Game Informer.

Beyond a bunch of Marvel fun, the issue is full of other great content to explore. We report on the first details of Sony’s newly announced PlayStation console. We visited Supermassive Games for an expansive look at the terrors on the way in The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan. We profile two game developers who cheated the system to make big money from the Google Play store, and why they eventually walked away. And, we go in-depth with Pixar to discuss how some of the animation giant's worlds made their way into Kingdom Hearts 3. Plus, we preview big upcoming titles like Borderlands 3, Wolfenstein: Youngblood, and Iron Man VR.
