Notably, this marks the first official mention of the project starring an ensemble. Some would argue it gives further credence to rumors that Amy Hennig’s Marvel game will revolve around the Fantastic Four.

This counts as one of many Marvel titles currently in development. Insomniac Games is hard at work on Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine, for example.
