Image From Rumored Marvel Overwatch-Like Game Leaked
gameranx.comYesterday, we reported on a rumored upcoming Marvel game that will be similar to Overwatch. Now we have new information to bolster this rumor.
As shared on reddit by user Username41968, there’s a new picture floating around that allegedly comes from this game. Someone asked Miller Ross about this image, who replied:

We will point out now that it includes Iron Man and Spider-Man, and some X-Men, like Storm, and some people from the Guardians of the Galaxy, such as Star-Lord and Rocket Raccoon. But, it doesn’t have a complete roster for the X-Men, or the Guardians, or the Avengers.
So part of the draw for this game seems to be attracting fans of some characters
