A new Marvel game starring Captain America and Black Panther is set to be revealed later today at the Disney & Marvel Games Showcase if sources speaking to Eurogamer are correct. Originally reported by Twitter account MCU Status and then corroborated by the site, the title is set during World War II and sees the superhero duo take on the forces of Hydra.
"Eurogamer understands this to be correct," its article states. Today's event has already confirmed we'll catch a glimpse of the next game from the Uncharted creator along with "new reveals" from the likes of Marvel's Midnight Suns, recent release Disney Dreamlight Valley, and LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. However, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine are unlikely to be in attendance.
The latest Amy Hennig game was first announced back in October 2021, at which point it was described as a "narrative-driven, blockbuster action-adventure game, featuring a completely original story and take on the Marvel Universe". If the rumour turns out to be true, then this may actually be the first of two Black Panther games following reports of a project currently in the works at EA. A single player, open world game is apparently in the early stages of development.
Amy Hennig is also lending a helping hand on a new Star Wars title under Skydance New Media, but this game will be first out of the blocks, it appears. The Disney & Marvel Games Showcase begins today at 9pm BST / 1pm PT / 4pm ET.

Aaaaand... Cancelled
Are we getting the invaders team?
I hope we also get to play as the Bucky , Logan, Namor, whizzer and the human touch.
I am guessing the villains will be the Red Skull, and Hydra( or the Nazi's by name).
Story driven I hope
Wouldn't it just be nicer if you could just wait a few hours and let them announce it instead of pre-announcing the announcement?
Multiplayer I hope
@themightyant you make too much sense.
@themightyant multiple articles on the same game seems to be the direction its going
@themightyant spot on 👍 though it'll be justified because it's on EG.
Finally we'll get the backstory of how Steve lost his virginity... with GoW style quick time events!

@themightyant But you clicked it, and so did I. Numbers! And I'm not mad either, since this news pleased me.
@nomither6 said no one
@bremkat35 ha , no need to . the sales would speak for itself .
@nomither6 What? Avengers is not enough for you?
@rachetmarvel
that would make sense, for it to be an iteration of The Invaders. I hope it leans more on the stylized end, like cell shaded, comic book/cartoon-y feel. instead of the hyper realistic style like Crystal Dynamic/Square Enix Marvel Avengers - I mean, it was fine but something different would be cool.
@WadeIsInsane @BoldAndBrash I still don't get it. Is the name of the studio Amy Henning?
I loved Amy Henning's writing in Uncharted. I would love to see a great story from her again... outside of the Marvel universe. Marvel is frankly... a waste of her talent.
@Uncharted2007 The MCU maybe, but the comics do have good stories to adapt.
And no offense to Uncharted fans, but the Uncharted stories and characters aren't any more complex than comic book stories and characters.
Well that sounds pretty awesome and pretty unique for superhero gaming.
The two characters that really dont do anything for me. But that doesnt matter great news for the fans.
OMG a story driven, hopefully single player experience, similar to Uncharted. Let's hope and pray 🙏
This is a really weird choice. Was hoping the Fantastic Four rumor was going to be true.
I really liked her work with Uncharted. Just saying out loud but if she ever decided to go back to Sony, maybe Sony should consider letting her take charge of Uncharted and have her own studio to work on that while ND works on TLoU and new ips. lol
Interested to see how Black Panther ends up in WWII.A time rift, not T'Challa, alternate universe, Maybe a "new" previous BP, maybe his grandfather?
@AldusRavencorn It 100% shouldn't be T'challa, it should be Azzuri.
Could be interesting.
@rachetmarvel Drawing something from the old Invaders comics would be pretty cool. How about Baron Blood. And better still Union Jack?
Hennig or no Hennig, i am done with this Marvel superhero sh#t…..
