The Avengers coming to Wii U and Kinect this Fall

Marvel and Ubisoft are bringing the incredible awesomeness that is The Avengers to the Xbox 360 Kinect and Nintendo’s upcoming console, the Wii U, this Fall!  Not much is known about the game yet, but here is what we know about “The Avengers: Battle for Earth” so far:

“We are excited to team up with Marvel Entertainment to bring some of the most iconic comic book characters from the Marvel line-up to life in motion-gaming,” said Tony Key, US senior vice president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft. “Fans of the Marvel universe and superhero games are going to love the extensive combinations of characters, motion-controlled moves and competitive gameplay.”

“For the last few years, Marvel has positioned itself to deliver the absolute best in entertainment, be it in film, animation, comics or games,”  said Andreea Enache-Thune, senior vice president of games and digital distribution at Marvel.  “Partnering with Ubisoft is a big part of that ongoing movement. We are confident that Ubisoft’s talent matches Marvel’s own commitment to making the Avengers: Battle for Earth the best in the motion-controlled gaming category.”

Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth features 20 different characters, including Avengers such as Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America and Thor, as well as other fan-favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains from the Marvel Universe.

I’m certain we’ll get a good look at where the game is thus far in just a few weeks at E3.  Stay tuned!
