The Avengers movie has dominated the worldwide box-office (as expected), and what better time for the superhero squad to make the jump to consoles?<\/p>\n
Ubisoft have announced that Avengers: Battle for Earth will be coming to Xbox 360 and Wii-U, bringing the antics of Marvel’s long-running hero-gathering onto home consoles.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are excited to team up with Marvel Entertainment to bring some of the most iconic comic book characters from the Marvel line-up to life in motion-gaming,\u201d said Ubisoft’s Geoffroy Sardin.<\/p>\n
Battle for Earth will feature all the expected heroes, such as Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America and Thor, as well as other superheroes from the Avengers history and comics.<\/p>\n
The story won’t be directly tied into the recently released film, and will instead revolve around the Secret Invasion storyline from the comic books.<\/p>\n
Andreea Enache-Thune, senior vice president of games and digital distribution at Marvel, also feels that the game is the right fit for incorporating Kinect and Wii-U’s expected motion applications into the game.<\/p>\n
“We are confident that Ubisoft\u2019s talent matches Marvel\u2019s own commitment to making the Avengers: Battle for Earth the best in the motion-controlled gaming category.\u201d<\/p>\n
