In the action-RPG X-Men Destiny, you control the fate of a new mutant in the X-Men universe. Every choice has a consequence, as your destiny is determined through the decisions you make as you advance through the game. Play as one of three new characters in X-Men lore, each one of whom must come to terms with his or her unique background and powerful mutant identity while uncovering the truth behind an epic event that threatens to tear apart the tenuous peace between humanity and mutant kind. Evolve and customize your core mutant powers with an opportunity to earn and equip “X-genes” to expand and alter your power base. Choose which path to take in key moments that impact your story and how other characters respond to you. Fight alongside and against famous mutants from the X-Men comics, including Wolverine, Cyclops, Emma Frost and more. Will you choose to follow the teachings of the X-Men to unite mutants and humans, or will you usher in a new age of mutant domination with Magneto’s Brotherhood? YOU decide.


UPDATE: Unfortunately, it looks like Activision have caught up with whoever uploaded the below video, but thanks to CVG and io9 we still have some of the screenshots below. See them while you can!

























No release date has been revealed for X-Men: Destiny quite yet, but it's rumoured to be hitting stores later this year.

Hey guys, go read my article. The Spider-Man reboot might be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe

That's the best I could do - I'm pretty sure that's all of them apart from the one with Surge. If I find it, I'll get that up here as well. :)

Lansdowne5: Thanks man. I can't believe how bloody quickly they took that video down...it was literally within minutes of me posting this article! Regardless, I have to agree with you. This game looks shit. :P There's a chance it could be good, but I'm not in the least bit impressed at this point.

YES!!!!!!!!!! GAMBIT!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!, I still think they should've put him in MvC3, but instead they put Storm, waste of pixels!

I'm willing to give this the benefit of the doubt for now. This information wasn't supposed to be released yet after all. It would be unfair to judge by it. This could potentially be the best X men game yet. The next wave of information better be more impressive though.

Rumor is this games just recycled from the marvel online game that was cancelled so far it looks like infamous the main character with the tatoos is kinda silly i hope it lets you create a toon

When I see this and when I look at the force unleashed games, I have to ask; why is it all these games wanna have buzz cut dudes in frikkin tribal armbands and sleeve tattoos. I'm a tattoo artist and even I hate seeing the amount of tribal on video game characters. Do all fictional characters come dressed in uniforms designed by 'Affliction' all of a sudden? How many MMA clones can people draw in a decade? Kinda done seeing this, and hopefully they'll let you design your mutant's look.

Whoa! What the hell? The reaction here was not what I expected. These pics don't look bad and I thought the trailer gave us a nice tease.

HeavyHands - 1/17/2011, 12:32 PM
@artofjaymz I completely agree. I loath tribal tattoos in the first place, but seeing them on comic and video game characters is so much worse then passing by ten jersey shore clones on the bordwalk. I love bjj and mma as sports but can't stand the crowd the ufc and tapout have created

Aww man..Why does Gambit look so weak? He always gets the rough end of the stick in Vids. So rare that he gets to be bad ass...his costume here is so typical...Ultimate Alliance 2 had a bad ass Horseman outfit for him....way cooler than the regular outfit.

Whats with the WeakASS concept art?

That's surprising, after the teaser I was expecting an animation style similar to the USM game or Prince of Persia 2008 or Borderlands...
So is this basically DCUO-lite (as in not an mmorpg, but player-characters are fully customisable and based on other established characters... and obviously Marvel, not DC)?

@gambitfreak Agreed!! hope it's not too late to put him..
They included Akuma and Taskmaster.

It looks okay.

Looks pretty shitty. And to back up that statement, it's being developed by Silicon Knights.Anybody here ever play Too Human? Damn Activision for not getting a GOOD dev for the first standalone X-Men game in years!

@Jaspion It probably is too late seeing as people have been saying that Taskmaster and Akuma would be in for some time now. Look at the leaked rosters, with Akuma and Taskmaster's confirmation, the lists have now been proven legit.
AskaniSon
AskaniSon - 1/17/2011, 6:33 PM
Meaning Gambit won't be in. At least not in the initial roster. DLC is another story.
