Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Wolverine, Spider-man, Daredevil and The Thing can now be pretty much confirmed. Also, that looks like Stark's Extremis armor unless I'm mistaken.
Also, it's now officially called Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2: Fusion
Ha! I posted this two minutes before you :P (just kidding) along with more info :)

I don't really get the fusion stuff but I think it may mean you can combine their powers more then just simple combos, maybe they've explored doing stuff like the fastball special.
The Fusions replace Xtremes. It's basically a glorified combo Xtreme that needs to players.
It looks like this is goodbye to my solos.

Yep, that definatley is the Stark Extremis armor..Now the question is, is this story still gonna most likely be based on the Civil war events? I would have figured the name would say it but who knows.. If it is Civil War, Ironman did wear the extremis suit during that time so hopefully it is. Thanks for the find Teancum!!
PS: The sirens during the trailer are incredible, that could have possibley given the heads up for Civil War..
According to the Game Informer skins (see Wikipedia or the other topic here) it starts out in the Secret War and moves into the Civil War.
PC version not listed in the trailer... hmm... no Raven... :nervous:

Raven is owned by Activision, maybe that's why it's not mentioned. PS2 wasn't mentioned either. Hmm...

Hmm, you could be right because MUA2 is listed here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raven_Software
There is no reference for that though.
Vicarious Visions is involved in making this game... It's likely that the skins, models, textures, and animations would be in IGB format.
Hmm, Ravensoft makes no mention of the game on their website. I'm willing to bet that since VV bought Alchemy they no longer leave the engine public. It's a shame really, as I think VV suck as independent developers (though they rock at porting games). Hopefully this'll change that.
That trailer was great! The sirens gave me chills. Iron Man's Extremis armor also looks incredible.
wow... super-mega-ultra-giga-hyper graphics...

Raven Software's official site was a bit outdated; their last update was in 2007 when I checked this morning. Now, I can't even load the website... :(
Man... I really want a PC version, whether it's moddable or not.
:( No pc version, why!!!!!!!! :(
you sure mua 2 not come out for pc :S
Im sure they might make a pc version, doesn't some times they release the game for the other consoles and then later release a pc version. At least I found that sometimes...
Thanks for the trailer Teancum , hopefully it does come out for pc maybe their not having a pc version because they know we are going to mod it into a more awesome game :D
Edit : http://au.pc.ign.com/objects/142/14233949.html (http://au.pc.ign.com/objects/142/14233949.html)
Yeah, but you can't trust IGN or any of those sites like that when it comes to platforms. 99.999% of the time they change all that once they actually know what it's coming out for. Right now we can just pray and hope, since all reliable sources have not mentioned PC. (yes, IGN is a reliable source, but is notorious for getting platforms wrong).
Back on topic, there's another new trailer
http://media.pc.ign.com/media/142/14233949/vids_1.html
Thought the was the same one you posted at the start , yah wolverine in his old costume :D Im just waiting for the video showing venom and green goblin in play :venom:
Nope, this one shows the first "fusion" revealed via video
I'm worried that they're going to completely change the formula, from the looks of it the Fusions are like Xtremes except for something that looks cutscene-esque...
Yeah, but remember all the MUA 1 trailers looked cutscene-esque. It's just a fancy camera angle is all.
I suppose. I don't like how they're replacing Xtremes with Fusions though.
That's a bugger, I liked Xtremes. I can only pray Fusions will be good. And that a PC version will come out. And I love the effective bomb with Iron Man and Invisible Woman, which is similar to Torch and IW in the F4 RotSS game.
Whoop! London's mentioned, making it likely the guy I've been banging on about for ages'll make an appearance.
Here's a thought though, I wonder if certain teams (F4, Avengers etc) will have more effective/spectacular fusions than other non-related teams (making it more worthwhile to play as a team...)
(from new video)
...source of attack: Latveria...
mmmh... Doom again? maybe he'll be one of the villains
Personally I won't be too disappointed if Ravensoft isn't involved with the sequel, I'm getting pretty sick of playing the same super hero game over and over, it'd be nice to get some variety, and maybe this will be an opportunity for that.

July 15, 2008 - Activision announced there will be 24 heroes in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 Fusion. In addition to Iron Man and the Invisible Woman that we previously knew about, Venom, Green Goblin, Spider-Man, Hulk, Captain America and Wolverine (in an old classic costume) are confirmed.
Activision also revealed that the story involves a global assault based around Latvia. So you can count on Doctor Doom being in the game.
Lastly, we found out that there is the new ability to share super powers between different characters and customize them in new ways. We're guessing this is where the Fusion subtitle comes from.
Are they talking about Wolverine's brown costume or his Jim Lee costume or his first-appearance costume in Incredible Hulk #180/181? That costume shown in the trailer is just his more recent Astonishing costume, which is iconic, but not "old classic" at all in my opinion. Not sure if they are talking about the one in the trailers......

I think I read somewhere that he might be a playable character ?
"24 heroes" = only 24 playable characters in the game? If that's the case, it's quite a small improvement to MUA's 23 playbles... :laugh:
I hope there are 24 playable villains, too.

Well they said more :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Well I reckon since Green Goblin and Venom has been confirmed we might get the whole thunderbolts :D

Yeah, that would be very cool as I really enjoyed reading the new Thunderbolts since issue 110. :D
Do you think we will get all of these?
Venom, Green Goblin, Songbird, Moonstone, Bullseye, Penance, Absorbing Man, Swordsman
It would be nice to have them if we do get 24 villains and wasnt Doctor Octupus in the thunderbolts during the civil war ? Be awesome to get him aswell .

Oh yeah, you are right!!! I forgot he was in Thunderbolts though he was on my wish list... ^^"
Taskmaster was also one , him ,venom , green goblin , doc ock and penance would be the thunderbolts I want :D

According to the wiki page this game will come out on DVD for the PC... I can't find their sources but maybe they've heard of something we haven't, I'll see what I can find on proof :P
Like Teancum said Wikipedia isnt very reliable as anyone can edit it same as Ign .
I know, that's why I'm trying to find proof
Whether the wiki is talking about Secret War or Secret Wars in the plot section is another question... haha
*snicker* tell me about it ;)
I am pretty sure it will come to PC (actually... i am hoping T_T)
24 heroes TOTAL? That SUCKS! XD... There goes out 45 or so heros lists :(
Well... i am pretty much ok with the actual number... as long as Wolvie, Hulk, Ironman and Deadpool are in it (3 out of 4 ain't that bad ^^, and i can bet that the 4th one is there for sure!)...
My true concern, is about a PC version...
Cheers^^
Well since their going to up the default characters by one - maybe the 'limit' will be upped to twenty-eight... giving us a total of 28 chars instead of the 27 we work with now
EDIT: What I wanna know... is how they increase the number :P if we knew that we wouldn't need MUA 2 lol
MUA1 is 27 characters because during development you had the standard 23 + Moon Knight + Colossus + Hulk + defaultman.
Plus it's a different developer entirely this time around.
However, there is no mentioning of Civil War in this trailer.
Yeah I know - that's what I'm saying, maybe this time around the game won't be hard coded and we'll be able to add loads of characters without replacing others :D

It's mentioned in the Game Informer scans. One of the Wiki references links to the scans.
