For a long time now Marvel had been forgetting about The Fantastic Four. Well fans will be happy now because they are here in Marvel Future Fight.
Due to 20th Century Fox owning the film rights to The Fantastic Four, Marvel chose not to add the characters into recent video games. This is one of the reasons why the foursome was not seen in the recently released Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite video game.
Marvel now has a change of heart because the characters have returned to video games as they are playable characters in the Marvel Future Fight mobile game. You can read more details of their addition in the press release below.
Press Release
“Netmarble Corp. announced that the Fantastic Four have arrived in the epic Super Hero action-RPG mobile game, MARVEL Future Fight! First introduced in 1961, Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards), The Invisible Woman (Susan Richards), the Human Torch (Johnny Storm), and The Thing (Ben Grimm) have taken generations of readers along on some of the greatest comic adventure stories ever told.
The Fantastic Four are not alone, as they’ve brought along their perennial nemesis, Doctor Doom, and his champion of Latveria, Victorious. Along with these six new characters, Crystal and She-Hulk – existing Marvel Future Fight characters who have been friends and former members of the Fantastic Four team – will all receive new Fantastic Four uniforms. The update will also include a new “Monsters Unleashed!” battle armor uniform for Moon Girl, designed by Netmarble in collaboration with Marvel Games.
A new Epic Quest has been added to the game, focusing on Mister Fantastic. Players will receive the Mister Fantastic character as soon as they begin the Epic Quest and will gain strength each time an Epic Quest is completed. Mister Fantastic can be upgraded to Tier-3 and will have access to Ultimate Skills. The “Unleash Potential” feature will also be unlocked for Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, The Thing, Doctor Doom, Victorious, Crystal, She-Hulk, and Moon Girl.”
Marvel Future Fight is available now to download on Google Play for Android users and the App Store for iOS users.
