Open-World Iron Man Game Was In The Works For Years At Just Cause Studio
Just Cause developer Avalanche Studios was developing an open-world Iron Man game years ago, studio founder Christofer Sundberg revealed in a new interview. Sundberg, who left Avalanche in 2019, told MinnMax that this game was in development for «a couple of years.»
The game would have allowed players to fly anywhere and punch people through walls with Iron Man's Repulsor gloves, at least during one phase of development. Sundberg said there were «so many great people» involved in the untitled game's development. However, it was ultimately canceled for unspecified reasons around 2012. «It would have been great, I'm sure,» Sundberg said in the interview.
