MTV's Multiplayer bog has posted word (http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2009/03/25/marvel-targeting-2012-for-new-mmo-leading-out-of-avengers-movie/) that the previously hinted at (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80125) Marvel Universe MMORPG will not be heading to store shelves until 2012.
In the near future, after you’ve seen Marvel’s upcoming “Captain America” movie (in 2011) and “Avengers” movie (in 2012) — when all of that is out of the way — you should play Marvel’s massively multiplayer online game.
Expect that to happen in 2012, because that’s the sequence of events Marvel’s president of worldwide consumer products, Simon Philips, told my Splashpage Blog colleague Rick Marshall in a recent interview.
“It sounds like a long way away, but it’s not,” he said. “We’ve got to create, together with [game publisher] Gazillion, that environment that is going to be a totally immersive experience and a perpetual storytelling experience as well.” Philips said that he sees MMOs as “the next generation of storytelling.”
