After Xbox declined this offer, Marvel Games approached Sony, which led to the successful Marvel's Spider-Man and its spinoff, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

PlayStation seems poised to keep expanding its stable of exclusive Marvel games, with another Spider-Man sequel in the works and Marvel's Wolverine now also in development. Xbox is at least not getting left in the dust, with the soon-to-be-released Marvel's Midnight Sunscoming to the console. In addition to this, the well-received Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy developed by Eidos Montreal recently came to Xbox Game Pass. Despite this, it's fun to speculate what could have been if Xbox got to develop its own stable of exclusive Marvel games.
