5 Marvel superheroes who deserve a standalone video game
Marvel has seen a lot of success in the video game and television industry in the last decade alone. Yet, a slew of standalone video games for specific characters remains few, with most of these games featuring an ensemble cast, such as the ones in Lego Marvel Superheroes or Marvel’s Avengers.
Marvel comics consist of innumerable super-powered individuals who can take the stage by themselves, as established in the comics, live-action movies, and tv series. While characters like Wolverine might be initially part of a team, giving him a standalone game is still a significant step in the right direction.
Similarly, in the future, Marvel should focus on single-player video games, telling the story of one or only a small handful of characters to offer players an excellent superhero experience.
While set to appear in the upcoming Marvel game titled Midnight Suns, Dr. Strange is only one of the many different heroes the players will have limited control over. With the limitless capabilities at Strange’s disposal, a standalone game can do him justice.
A surgeon who lost the use of his hands but found a higher calling in the worlds of the mystic arts, Dr. Strange, resides in his Sanctum Sanctorum in New York, located at 177 Bleecker Street. Despite his residency in Manhattan, a fully open-world game featuring Strange in the city might be too challenging.
An action-adventure RPG is possibly best suited to a hero such as Dr. Strange. Featuring a hub world in the Sanctum with different explorable realities at the player’s disposal might be a great way to showcase Strange’s multiversal capabilities.
A skill tree with unlockable spells and new magical prowess can be a great way for players to assume the role of the Sorcerer Supreme.
