Images from the recently cancelled Marvel MMO have appeared online.
The screenshots – which show off what was likely the first menu players would reach in the game – were posted by Ramiro Galan, who works as a principal designer at Pixelkings, a company that worked on the cancelled project.
According to a post showing off the art on Galan’s Linkedin page: “Emphasis was on rich and vibrant colours with stylistic tones that pay homage to Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse.”
It’s unclear what stage of development the cancelled MMO had reached.
The images show off a created player character, who is then asked to choose which faction they would like to join. These factions are X-Men, Avengers, SHIELD and the Fantastic Four.
Players are then asked to customise their character by choosing an outfit, which impacts certain stats. At the end of the customisation process, players are presented with their own comic book cover showing off their character.

It’s unclear what the game’s planned release date was, but concept art for an earlier version of the game had leaked some time ago.
