Cancelled Marvel MMO Images Reveal Factions & Customization
New images from the canceled Marvel MMO reveal character customization and factions the player could have joined. This MMO was first announced in 2021, with Daybreak and EG7 working on the project together. Unfortunately, last week EG7 announced that the Marvel MMO was canceled, and Daybreak had ceased development on it.
The Marvel MMO was ultimately canceled due to the massive size of the project, investment, and time that would have been needed to create and maintain it. The companies will instead be shifting their focus towards other projects. While no gameplay had ever been released, there had been some concept art with designs for characters like Iron Man, Captain America, and Red Skull released on Twitter. This hints that the game would have been full of familiar Marvel characters on both the hero and villain sides.

These images focus on what the game's character customization screen would have looked like. Surrounding a representation of a created character in-game are an array of factions the player could have chosen from. It's common for MMOs to have factions or sides for players to choose from; World of Warcraft famously has The Alliance and The Horde for players to choose right from the start. In this MMO, players could have chosen to side with the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, or SHIELD. The screenshots also show off a Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse-inspired art style, with bright colors and a highly stylized look for players to customize as they built their characters.
