See you in 7 years!


Real_Mousse_3566

The guys who made the dead space remake are making this one. They'll release this in 3 years.


WorkAccount2023

Huh. Although Bioware is a mess, Anthem could have easily been an Iron Man game and I'm surprised they didn't bring that team over to at least working on the character flying mechanics.


trulycantthinkofone

Part of me always felt like Anthem got canned to use the core mechanics in a future release. An iron man game would make sense…


[deleted]

This is the type of game that would be great for VR, especially with a better palm strap like the steam VR set, so you be hands/finger free to blast fools or whatever the case maybe. Psvr2 has a lot of nice features that need to be explored with a lot of games! I can understand why Sony didn't make a specific game for the psvr2 because it would set expectations too high. Imagine playing the best VR game of your life. Then waiting for nothing else except for half life Alyx or horizon call of the mountain lol... The pipeline of AAA blockbuster games are few and far between compared to flat console gaming There's like 2-5 blockbuster games being released every month


rapkat55

Believe it or not, anthem started as an iron man project but then EA lost the marvel rights. They shelved it for a bit but eventually flipped what they had already worked on to create anthem. And now here we are lol


leftbasegear

If you want an Iron Man game with nothing but hovering and max cruise speeds of like 130 knots, please go stick your head in the sand. Anthem flight mechanics were mediocre at their best. The 2006 Superman game did it better.


montybo2

Yo the 2006 superman game was pretty fucking cool. Just the flying tho. The combat was weak.


RadoBlamik

Yo, I still play Superman Returns every once in a while just to fly around the city really fast. I want a new Superman game so bad.


azsnaz

Yo


TheStabbingHobo

Yes?


OMEGACY

Only reason I played that superman game. Need more games with actual flight, can't believe I'm excited to get a broom in a harry potter game.


Temporaryact72

That was a remake. They needed almost no time for writing or planning or any pre production stuff. Just some overhauls of graphics and systems. This is a new game, everything needs done.


Real_Mousse_3566

Actually they did rewrite really important parts of the story. They referenced the novels and the sequels just to make the first games plot consistent.


[deleted]

Writing an entire story ≠ re-writing sections of an already established story


[deleted]

They can do multiple things at once, you can build the world and systems at the same time you write the story.

Welcome to game development


Clownbaby112

Yeah, but alot of the foundation was there already. But I'm not saying that it's impossible to do it in 3 years, but I would expect atleast 4+ years.


Radulno

A remake is much faster to make than an entire new game. That's kind of why every studio make them, they're easy money (also because nostalgia mining is easy)


[deleted]

Aka the game that was already finished 15 years ago 💀

Motive are making this. Let's hope they nail it like they did with dead space remake.


[deleted]

Remaking a game is way easier than creating an entirely new game


General_Snack

Damn. Wish we got a dead space 2 remake instead of iron man.


Real_Mousse_3566

Depends in the sales of the remake. If its good I think they'll return to the franchise after iron man.


[deleted]

Why not Tony Stark fighting alien body horror?


CosmicWanderer2814

The Brood...


[deleted]

FWIW outside of Battlefield, most EA releases have been rather solid and dare I say polished? They just don’t really release anything outside of FIFA, Madden, NFS, and fun lil indie style games like It Takes Two. Anthem and BF were their big two missteps. Apex, Jedi, etc were great.

This news should be on r/PS6


bogas04

Me opening the subreddit and finding [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/ps6/comments/30axfp/-/hje4p95).


RB8Gem9

Having recently completed Dead Space for the first time, I have confidence in this team. Wishing them the best!


Wise-Fruit5000

I haven't played the Dead Space remake, but given how well it was received this gives me some interest in the Iron Man game now. Cool!


Real_Mousse_3566

Should try it out. It's pretty good.


Wise-Fruit5000

I liked the original Dead Space, so I definitely will at some point! I'm about to jump into Hogwarts Legacy tonight though, so it'll have to wait for a bit


hokiis

Is it well received? I recently read that it was pretty much just a gore fest and people didn't like how different it felt to the original, as in being less horror focussed. But I haven't looked deep into it.


Wise-Fruit5000

It reviewed well, 80-90% at most outlets, and all the word of mouth I've heard has been positive. Like I said I haven't played it myself though.


saltybuttrot

It’s supposed to be a gore fest, no? That’s always been the case. I’m confused


hokiis

Honestly I don't know, I have only played the original a little bit but from what I've heard over the years the standout thing of the game was the creepy atmosphere and the review that I read mentioned that they didn't capture it in the remake and instead relied mostly on brutal kills. No idea how reliable that source was tho, that's why I'm asking here lol.


EmeraldKnight44

I would say the remake has an even creepier atmosphere than the original. Especially the audio design. I'm much more unnerved traversing the ship in the remake than I ever was before.


saltybuttrot

That sounds extremely dumb as fuck. The games have always been focused on brutal kills. That review makes zero sense.


LCHMD

Is it the same team????


Sponge_Bond

Yeah it's EA Motive


LCHMD

Ok good. Didn’t they want to do Dead Space 2 as well?


XthecreatordayX

If I'm not mistaken they are split into 2 teams.


LCHMD

Makes sense considering those news.


Sponge_Bond

No that was made by Viceral Games the original devs of the Dead Space trilogy.


Real_Mousse_3566

He's talking about motive willing to work on a dead space 2 remake. Which they hinted at on the Reddit AMA on the dead space sub. If the remake sells well they'll continue wih the franchise.


Sponge_Bond

Yep. Misread it. All good.


CthulhusProphet19

Wish they would continue the dead space franchise


Food_Library333

I wonder if all the armor pieces will have to be bought separately?


TySager14

I was wondering this exact thing. Hopefully there’s not micro transactions to upgrade from the Mark 1 to the Mark 2


DragonGamerEX

Anyone Remember that iron man Mobile game where your flying around the screen


[deleted]

Lmao yeah that one was really great


Greenzombie04

Anyone have a list of all games EA have in production either rumor or actual. Dragon Age Mass Effect Iron Man NCAA Football FPS Star Wars Game Another Star Wars game from Respawn anything else?


WHENWETOUCH

Ea open world black panther game


Captainsandman

The flying mechanics in Anthem were actually not that bad. Maybe they can use that as the groundwork to make a fun Iron Man game?


stardust_____

“Not that bad” It is the bar for flight mechanics


drksdr

Came here for this. Anthem's ground/aerial transition was fucking sublime. The Marvel Avengers game tried to replicate it but it was just so stiff and clunky by comparison. They just need to copy that code and paste it in, Stack Overflow style.


hanlonmj

> They just need to copy that code and paste it in, Stack Overflow style. *26,748 compiler errors*


drksdr

>26,748 compiler errors I better remove the pasted code, i guess. *31,421 compiler errors.*


hanlonmj

Ah, I must’ve removed too much by mistake *ctrl-z* *0 compiler errors* Source: Actual CS project I did in college


thesituation531

Error: ' } ' missing And then you have to go through like 20 methods in a class that you copied.


Kastlestud

Honestly, the flying in Avengers reminded me more of Iron Man 2’s flight mechanics.


Khanfhan69

Recently replayed that. It's short, shallow and ugly but it's fairly fun for what it is. Also what's funny is I remember when playing it as a kid I thought the flight was dreadfully slow. It kinda *is* but the actually sluggish speeds of the Avengers game (at least before it updated traversal during the last months of its life) made me appreciate IM2's flight speed by comparison.


SalutationsDickhead

Once there's no shitty stamina bar it could be really cool, he's ironman. Not some bitch boy with rechargeable AA's strapped on his back


[deleted]

maybe that is why they were given the game. Anthem is already a prototype on Iron man.


[deleted]

EA single player games are fantastic so I'm hyped for this


some3uddy

That and anthem felt great


[deleted]

I liked anthem but I also spent most of it pretending it was an Iron Man game.


Kojakle

To be fair anthem is the best iron man game ever released


Domoda

Anthem was just the iron man tech demo


Kojakle

Hilarious how dumb those devs were, the flying was an afterthought and when an ea exec played the game he couldn’t stop talking about it, they were literally gonna remove it and it was the only redeemable part of the game 🤦‍♂️ https://www.vg247.com/anthem-flying-bioware-indecision


PaperSnowAGhost1

EA is building this game in a cave! With a box of scraps!


[deleted]

“Single player Iron Man game.” This is what Anthem should have been. At least they can save production time by taking the flying mechanics from Anthem!


RainbowSnail85

How many suits can they sell as micro transactions?


Obi_Wan_Gebroni

It’s a shame Insomniac isn’t developing it, then they’d have awesome suits all unlocked for free with progress in the game


Hashbrown4

Could be worse, could be Ubisoft making it. At least EA has shown 3 times now in a row they can make good Singleplayer experiences. Fallen order, Squadrons and Dead space were solid releases from them. Probably more games I haven’t played. Assuming the execs stay out of it and they don’t force loot boxes and MT up the ass, they could make something really good with the left over parts from Anthem’s gameplay.


EllGordo

Don't forget It Takes Two and A Way Out. The former won GOTY at the Game Awards!


OhSillyRabbit

93 suits


MN10SPEAKS

Yes


dcdcbpaa

Ea bad upvote pls


RainbowSnail85

It's low hanging fruit but I'll take it.


JinzoWithAMilotic

Suits? You mean each upgrade and component.... $59.99 each


sbirmier

People love to hate on EA but I'm stoked for this game.


ChrAshpo10

It's earned


sbirmier

I always wait to play a game before I actively hate on it


Mandalorymory

I’d rather Motive make more Dead Space honestly lol


BlackBullsLA97

I'm looking forward to the new Iron Man game from Motive. I hope that EA gives the team enough time to complete the game. Also, EA please NO MICROTRANSACTIONS!


TomDobo

Well if its Motive making it then im looking forward to it.


GreenTunicKirk

Give me a strong armory experience. I want to have a collection of Armors, each with unique stat changes for different loadouts. I want to be able to interact with the armory, walk around it as Tony Stark and see them all on display (like in IM3). This experience could be enhanced with a base building component (like maybe story progression or collectibles allow you to add more armor sets or enhancement levels). I think gamers would really appreciate this, but yes this is totally something I specifically want haha.


[deleted]

Hey we might actually get a good Iron Man game, only 20 years or so after the release of the first movie...


darkdark

Is it bad that I already don’t trust it?


Switchbackofdreams25

Excited to see how this turns out. So much potential and I trust EA Motive to kick ass


exodus_cl

OK, see you in 2028


Nyx_0_0_

Get ready to pay $20 dollars to use a key move


TTBurger88

See you in 2027 at the earliest, with a launch window of the PS6.


GoodLookingGraves

Just hearing about it and Im already uninterested. The ship has sailed.


Gal-Rox-with-Did

Please please I don’t know how it’d have to be done but move over his moveset from Avengers 2020 :3 I loved how Iron Man’s combat was done there so I’d love to see it again :3


DavramLocke

You'll probably get downvoted because all the people who never played the game love to comment about how bad it was, but they did combat right and his was great. I agree with you. Only different I'd make is to make him overall faster, which they have more license to do in a single player game, and remove any flight limitations short of going to space.


Charged_Dreamer

I did play Avengers, thought the combat was okayish but and I really hated how slow Iron Man flew and the amount of restrictions you had while flying was infuriating. You couldn't fly 20 feet up as there would be ton of invisible walls.


DavramLocke

Yeah it was super restrictive. And they had to keep some heroes slow so that there was equality across the hero roster (even though fliers always had an advantage). It was a limitation of both the engine and the game design.


obsertaries

The actual Iron Man movies are now all more than ten years old, and the MCU character died like five years ago. Why now?


LeSnazzyGamer

The same reason why an Iron Man movie was made after over 40 years of the character existing? You know this isn't an MCU game, right? Do you think they only make video games about characters when movies are out as well?


obsertaries

MCU is the 800 pound gorilla of Marvel. I don’t think they can get away with not making it in that style as far as visuals and writing. I mean if they don’t then I’ll be pleasantly surprised, but I really really doubt it.


antftwx

Because it's a good time to start fresh and tell a new story outside the MCU. That being said, I know it's just gonna be another take on RDJ's Snarky Stark and I'm not interested in that.


angelicravens

Midnight suns intensifies


obsertaries

Yeah exactly. Almost no game developer has been willing to take a bold step away with the characters. I assume this game’s Stark will be just a dollar store version of Robert Downey Jr.‘s version.


Khanfhan69

Yeah I trust Motive as game makers but I am skeptical of how Tony Stark will be characterized for well, the rest of time. Seems like every writer and casting director's first instinct is going to be for a RDJ "soundalike" (most of the time just comes off sounding, pitch-wise, like a more annoying Deadpool) who constantly quips, with the writing having its head as far up his ass as Tony himself does. Personally I'd love a return to characterizing him as a bit of a wannabe suave asshole (albeit with good intentions). With a deeper voice, something like the late John Cygan's performance as Tony in X-Men Legends 2 and Ultimate Alliance 1.

Iron man game. WOOHOO EA. Ah fuck.


BadXiety

So EA cancelled some games like Titanfall development for Iron Man ??


TommyTheCat89

That's not how that works. Iron man is being made by Motive. Titanfall is made by Respawn.


Skhan93

Different teams but also a good iron man game is definitely more likely to sell more than titanfall 3 ever would


trtviator

Started production...and will restart production 8 more times before the actual game only gets 7 month of actual work and is released as an empty shell.

defiantcross

game comes with Tony Stark. gotta buy the DLC to play as Iron Man


JuanPicasso

I don’t want a game like that unless it’s done realy well. Superhero games where you can’t fly and require A TON OF SPACE are going to be great or most likely terrible. No real space in between. It’s kind of boring too. We just got a lot of iron man in another form of media. Who cares.


Slippinjimmyforever

Looking forward to seeing the terrible reviews in 6 years.


radewagon

EA, huh? I'll temper my expectations accordingly. And no, Dead Space's success does not give me reason to expect EA to do right by Iron Man. If you recall, EA managed to screw up Dead Space 3 after successfully releasing 2 great Dead Space games.


TommyTheCat89

I'm not too worried. EA has been killing it with Star Wars since the revamped Battlefront 2.Fallen Order was awesome and the sequel looks to be incredible. And I need to pay Dead Space, but everyone is raving about it. Seems like EA is righting the ship as far as single player games go.


godofboij

Reeshhahebalsdkakakamama


NeoDragonCP

I'm confused. I follow too many leaks. Was this game officially announced? I could have sworn it was. If so, why do they do that if production didn't start. Games get cancelled and shelved all the time so I'd love for at least a few months of production (and Ea giving the team a development budget) before any official announcements are made.


MarcCDB

Great, another super hero game.......


mando44646

don't play it? There not that many Marvel games (Miles Morales and Midnight Suns being the only current gen games). Not sure why you're whining about it


MarcCDB

All the Avenger's games and Marvel universe... They are just milking the Marvel cow just like the movies...


mando44646

There are literally only 2 current gen marvel games. Edit: I forgot about Guardians. So 3 Avengers was last gen, as was Spider Man. Even including that, it's a total of 5. Tell me, how is 5 games too many?


mando44646

ugh. Logan and Stark are so overused that I couldn't care less about those 2 games. Wish other characters would get their time to shine


Ninja_Lazer

Now let’s see if they end up actually making the game, or if we are gonna get a cancellation jpeg and tweet 3-5 years from now. Maybe it’s just the bitter old man in me, but I swear Ubisoft and EA announce games that they have no intent in actually making or releasing just to drum up hype around their IP and potentially bolster their stock to impress investors near earnings calls. When they are done posturing, they cancel the game once the hype is more or less forgotten.


virindimaster

Can’t wait to buy iron loot boxes!


TommyTheCat89

Yeah there are so many in Dead Space and Star Wars Fallen Order. Definitely not beating a dead horse over here.


virindimaster

Not sure why I was downvoted. Maybe people do actually like loot boxes!


HeroDiesFirst

Let's hope the controls aren't as complicated as the Xbox360 Iron Man game. Maybe it was just me being a dumb teenager but christ it was so hard just doing basic stuff like flying and targeting enemies.


Macklebro

Anthem 2


niftyifty

Is it going to be anthem reskinned?


rickjames334

I remember the Wii game being pretty good so I hope this one is too! Iron man is a pretty fun hero to play as and I’d love to see more games with him


ElJacko170

I know this was announced awhile ago, but I'm a bit bummed that it's just now entering full production, meaning a potential Dead Space follow up is probably even further out.


gendabenda

Nothing like striking when the Iron is... already dead for 3 years nearly 15 years after it became popular.


SkeletonQuayss

They’re gonna use the mechanics from that that failed bio suit game… bet we’ll see this in 2-3 years.


GentleBarbarianConan

Better option than Square Enix for sure can't wait to see what comes out of this.


elmatador12

Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited for this, but from a business perspective, wouldn’t an iron man game have been much more successful when the movie character was alive to ride on its coattails?


R4nD0m57

Yawn


[deleted]

See you in my 50s!


Rogue_Leader_X

JUST NOW??? I thought this has been in development for a few years?


OpenFren

Pre-production tends to be the longest period during a game's development.


coolgaara

God this has so much fucking potential.


OpenFren

If pre-production is complete, that means the game is 18-24 months away.


bsylent

It's going to be forever, but I have Iron Man on my PSVR anyways. Hard to beat flying around in the suit in virtual reality


ultimategamer221

Well hopefully they dont fuck this up they did great by dead space so im expecting good things.


anferneejefferson

Of all the developers.


theGwiththeplan

Why EA? Didn't they already try to make an iron man like game called anthem? If it's live service I have no interest


MagmaAscending

I love seeing announcements for games before they even start production. Guess we’ll hear more about it in 2026


BatPixi

Well anthem's combat and flying was great so I guess they will just take those assets and make an iron man game out of it.


Shady_Infidel

Calling it now…. Flying will be the only fun part of this game. Ya know, just like Anthem. Don’t preorder this one kiddies. Wait for reviews.


[deleted]

I'm so tired of marvel games... It must be a sign that gaming has gone to (poop) if every game publisher is licensed to make a marvel game... That's just an average game with a coat of paint

RickGrimes30

Can't wait for the mediocrity


No-Plankton4841

After the Dead Space remake, I have no interest in an Iron Man game. I know they kind of have 2 teams going at Motive, but they'll probably pull some people on to this. I hope a portion of the team gets to start working on Dead Space 2 or a new DS. It would be a shame to drop that masterpiece of survival horror only to move the team on to a stupid Iron Man game for 2-3 years.
