Marvel: Ultimate Alliance

This product is also called Marvel Legends in North America.

Background

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is an all-new Action/RPG that lets players create their ultimate team from the largest Super Hero alliance ever as they engage in an epic quest to determine the fate of the Marvel universe. For decades, Earth's Super Heroes have opposed evil in their own cities, and on their own terms. But now, Dr. Doom and a newly reformed Masters of Evil have plans for world domination, and the heroes must band together to defeat them. Players can create and control their own completely unique team, selecting from the largest roster of legendary Super Heroes ever assembled in one game.

Gameplay

You are in control of your favorite heroes from the entire Marvel Universe, featuring a cast of more than 140 of Marvel's storied heroes. Create your own all-star team from a line up of more than 20 playable characters, then fight through classic Marvel worlds and a branching storyline as you take on the biggest villains comic-dom has to offer like the Skree, Doctor Doom, and Galactus himself, the eater of worlds!
