The Disney and Marvel Games Showcase at D23 just ended, and the occasion was jam-packed with information and announcements regarding games from the many properties of the entertainment corporation. There was a tonne of game trailers shown during the conference, both for games that are currently available (like Disney Dreamlight Valley) and those that will be released in the future.
Tron Identity, a brand-new game set in the Tron universe, was unveiled by Disney. The brief teaser trailer mostly consisted of the game’s title card, but its Steam website reveals much more, including the fact that it is a visual novel mystery game. In 2023, Bithell Games, the studio behind independent games like Thomas Was Alone, will release Tron Identity.
A video game being developed by Skydance New Media will feature both the Captain America and Black Panther universes. The game will feature Steve Rogers/Captain America, Azzuri, the WWII-era Black Panther, Gabriel Jones, a US soldier who is also a member of the Howling Commandos, and Nanali, a member of the Wakandan Spy Network, according to a Marvel blog post. However, this teaser trailer was short on details. Amy Hennig, a former creative director for the Uncharted series who joined Skydance in October, will be in charge of the as-yet-untitled game.
Marvel World of Heroes is a brand-new augmented reality smartphone game being developed by Disney with the creators of the Pokémon Go augmented reality game, Niantic.
Players will be able to transform into their own superhero and “patrol their neighborhoods to foil crimes, execute Super Hero missions, and thwart interdimensional threats,” according to a press release. That suggests that you might encounter groups of players roaming about your area brandishing their iPhones, I suppose. The game is scheduled to debut in 2019.
The upcoming strategy game Marvel’s Midnight Suns, created by Firaxis Games, was unveiled by Disney along with a release date. After being postponed earlier this year, Midnight Suns will finally launch on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5 on December 2, 2022. A later date will see the release of Midnight Suns for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch.
The upcoming installment of the popular Monkey Island series, Return to Monkey Island, will have an in-game scrapbook that highlights significant moments from the series’ history.
I’m really looking forward to reading through the scrapbook to catch up on the story before delving into the puzzle adventure because I’ve only ever played the first two Monkey Island games. Fortunately, I won’t have to wait long because Return to Monkey Island will be available on September 19 for PC and Nintendo Switch.
