About the Game
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 continues the four-player mayhem of the previous Marvel Ultimate Alliance and, before that, the X-Men Legends series . It is based on the Secret War and Civil War storylines from the comics. After Nick Fury leads an unauthorized super-hero assault on Latveria and a fight gone wrong kills hundreds of civilians in Connecticut, the government passes the super-human registration act, which requires all super-powered individuals to reveal their identities to the government. At one point in the story, you have to choose the pro or anti registration side and certain heroes will always be on one side or another, locking them out if you choose the other path.
Story & Setting
The game after this point changes depending on the storyline you choose.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Each character has a health meter and a stamina meter. You can use SHIELD access points, usually at the beginning and middle of each level, to switch out characters. The stamina meter recharges on its own and controls use of powers. Each hero has a jump (which can also be used to double-jump, fly or web-swing, depending on the character), grab, quick strike and powerful strike. These can be used in combination to do things like jumping attacks, pick up an enemy, then punch them, etc.
Standout Features
- You start with a handful of characters and can unlock more by completing bonus simulator missions, which will give you a special task like blowing up cars.
- Combining these with a modifier button allows you to use powers.
- You can re-assign the points and change which powers are active at any time.
- Defeating enemies and smashing environment items gives you health refills and points that can be spent upgrading statistics for each hero.
- There are also items that you can carry that will give stat bonuses like increased HP or a bonus to a specific type of damage.
- This is controlled by a meter of four stars.
- You fill this by defeating enemies or finding an item that instantly fills the whole meter.
- You can spend one star to revive a fallen teammate or all four to perform a fusion attack.
