Marvel's Contest of Champions: The "Injustice" of Marvel?

We all know this was going to happen soon, but we didn't know it'd be this soon! Looks like because of INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US' critical success not just for consoles, but also for mobiles, it gave MARVEL an idea to make their own swipe-to-fight mobile game...

[frick]in' badass!

During NYCC, Marvel unveiled their "Injustice", Marvel: Contest of Champions for the mobile. Currently, it's only available in Sweden (with Sweden players leaking some of its gameplay), but will go worldwide during December. You can watch its cinemattic trailer below to catch a glimpse of what's going on.


If you also didn't know, Contest of Champions was a story arc in the comics, featuring The Grandmaster trying to ressurect The Collector by battling Death using some of Marvel's heroes to defeat her team (also consisting of Marvel heroes). In the game though, you play Gamora, Iron Man, Star-Lord, Black Bolt, Hulk, the Winter Soldier, and (currently) 17 other characters from the comics (Thanos, Kang, and The Collector not included).

ASSEMBLE A TEAM OF MARVEL'S MIGHTIEST HEROES AND VILLAINS AS YOU QUEST AND BRAWL YOUR WAY THROUGH AN EPIC ADVENTURE TO SAVE THE UNIVERSE FROM COMPLETE ANNIHILATION IN MARVEL'S LATEST GAME MARVEL: CONTEST CHAMPIONS!

So, Marvel makes a mobile game based on a years old storyline, and that means it's copying DC? A mobile game to top it off? And I guess the 1995 game Marvel Super Heroes doesn't count? Or the sequel? Riiiiiiight. How about you go even deeper and say Marvel copied DC by making movies based on their comic characters, lol? Hey Marvel vs Capcom let Marvel characters fight each other! Coincidence? I think Marvel copied DC through the magic of time travel!

In other breaking news, water is wet, fire is hot, trolling is stupid.

There was a "Injustice" of Marvel and it was called Marvel vs Capcom.
And it was the best.

Didn't get a chance play it. Was barely on the show floor, but what I saw looked good (from others playing it)

Marvel and DC have been copying each other left and right before these Cinematic Universes existed and before many of us were born; it's just business, when you get down to it.

This is not meant to be perceived as an INJUSTICE. It's more of a casual fighting game for tablets and phones.

This site's editors need to stop starting flame wars. It's getting old.
