Black Panther Might Not be the Only Marvel Character EA Has Eyes On

The most recent leak from EA gave Black Panther fans a chance to rejoice! With reliable sources hinting at EA’s venture with its Kevin Stephens-led studio, one of Marvel’s iconic superhero characters may soon get an exclusive video game experience. However, after a new development surfaced, Black Panther doesn’t seem to be the only Marvel character EA is eyeing at the moment.

The Black Panther game, which industry insider Jeff Grubb leaked last month, is apparently going to be a single-player open world experience. As further speculations suggest, a player will go through all the challenges to become Black Panther, after the death of his predecessor. Marvel fans now have a lot of expectations from EA.

As new reports suggest, EA is probably working on a second Marvel project, alongside the Black Panther game. In fact, another reliable industry insider, Tom Henderson, gave out the possible protagonist! But, it is just a rumor, as of now. Hence, fans may not want to take it seriously, just yet, as Henderson himself suggested.

EA’s second Marvel project reportedly addresses Tony Stark!

While Jeff Grub revealed EA’s second secret venture alongside Black Panther last month, his revelation didn’t include the protagonist’s name. However, Tom Henderson came to the rescue! He hinted at Tony Stark aka Iron Man being the hero of EA’s second Marvel project. The revelation, of course, thrilled a lot of fans.

According to Jeff Grub, EA is apparently collaborating with Marvel for the long term. This collaboration could turn out to be a treat for Marvel fans, with EA releasing several superhero games under its hood.

Tom Henderson, after revealing the Iron Man possibility, suggested fans to treat the same as a speculation. He added that he’ll come up with a detailed report once he receives more concrete information. “Put this heavily under the “rumor” category for now and if I hear/see more information that’s concrete I’ll report on it properly. Just thought it was worth mentioning,” his tweet read.

There hasn’t been a mainline Iron Man game for a long time. Fans would obviously love a AAA Iron Man title in this era! Couple it up with Black Panther, and fans will have an exhilarating superhero duo on their favorite platforms!

Other than just the protagonist’s name, nothing is known about the speculated game from EA. However, as Henderson mentioned, he’ll share details as soon as he gets his hands on some!
