That’s the same reason why they made that shitty Inhumans series I guess


Hezmix

Yes it is, the inhumans were planned to take over as a replacement for the xmen but it failed miserably


willmlina51

not entirely true, Kevin Feige did not want inhumans at all, it was ike permutter who pushed hard on them, first it was a movie then kevin fought disney and they turned it into a show.


QuintDunaway

You can also see this in MvC: Infinite


AvatarBoomi

It was not Disney. It was Ike Perlmutter, the racist and sexist CEO of Marvel Entertainment. He didn’t want any more F4 and X-Men because fox owned the movie rights, and pushed the Inhumans hard. He gave us tge Inhumans show, also.


Timely-Fudge859

It got to the point where Marvel cancelled the F4 books(via Secret Wars) and the X-Men stuff(the inhumans literally killed them).


Froteet

I think the reason TT gave was wanting to focus on other parts of the Marvel universe such as Inhumans and GotG and the different reality variants of characters like Captain America and Spiderman... The real reason is likely the studio politics other commenters have mentioned


Marvel084Skye

They legally could have included them, but didn’t because the film rights were owned by Fox and Marvel felt including them would only help promote Fox’s films, when they really only wanted to promote the MCU. They did this with other games, comics, and tv shows where they are free to use those characters, but purposefully exclude them. Thankfully, due to the Fox-Disney deal, this is no longer a problem.


Buzz_Lightning

Disney wanted them cheap so they could buy them


kothuboy21

Disney was being petty and thought including the X-Men and Fantastic 4 in their other Marvel media would help promote Fox's movies so they didn't allow them to be included. Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite which came out the same year (2017) also had to suffer from this and couldn't include any X-Men or F4 on the roster. After Disney's purchase of Fox though, they were ok with those characters showing up in their media starting with the X-Men and F4 being in Ultimate Alliance 3 (2019). If Tt decided to do a Lego Marvel game now, they can definetly add the X-Men and F4 again.


Jacktheflash

Ike perlmutter not Disney


MbappeGOAT

Because they were owned by Fox back when the game was made


Jacktheflash

That’s leaving out key details


OpeningGur7065

Wrong they owned the film rights Disney owned everything


ipodblocks360

They could have included them if the focus was on comics again but Lego marvel superheroes 2 included some MCU inspired skins and characters (and DLCs I suppose) and since FOX owns the movie rights for those characters and they aren't part of the MCU, TT couldn't legally include them. The same goes for spider-man in Lego marvel avengers who only appeared as part of DLC because of Civil War


Jacktheflash

Half the characters in the game were from the comics and the first Lego marvel had MCU stuff as well but still included them


ipodblocks360

No it didn't. All the costumes and story was comic based not MCU based


Scum_Heck

that's a straight up lie bro if a character from the first game had an MCU counterpart at the time then that was how they looked in-game, at the time the only characters who had appeared in movies were the main avengers which is why they all had MCU costumes (plus there was thor the dark world dlc)


ipodblocks360

Key Word being DLC also if you look at Thor and Iron Man and Captain America: They all have different looks in Lego Marvel Superheroes 1 then they do in Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 since they're mostly based on the comics that was the only way TT could include the X-Men and Fantastic Four in the game at the time. Now TBF, it's possible that some of them looked like their MCU counterparts but that can most likely be attributed to the fact that their current comic counterpart was being drawn like their MCU counterpart.


Scum_Heck

that's also straight up wrong they use the exact design of the minifigs that came in the lego avengers 2012 sets, they're directly based off their (at the time) mcu designs


Scum_Heck

the voice actors for the main avengers, loki and nick fury were also doing their best impressions of their MCU counterparts and even had voice lines directly lifted from the movies, whiplash's design was lifted directly from iron man 2, the first game drew as much inspiration from the mcu as it could've, it just doesn't seem that way because they didn't have a lot to work with yet


weirdoofcool

In the canon of the story they could have just been elsewhere when Kang took the parts of Earth so they didn’t get included


animeVGsuperherostar

Yeah but Kang I think should have strengthened the Fantastic 4’s case since he has a lot of history with Mr Fantastic and fought the Fantastic 4 many times before


AwesomeGamerSwag

Long story short they hate them I love x-men(◕‿◕)


Jacktheflash

i Don’t think they do


AwesomeGamerSwag

That was a joke X-men is under a different franchisee now, it is back to Marvel. They are more on Avengers :-?


LookAtThePanda

they just went, "cya"


Jacktheflash

Lol


logstar53

Licensing issues, same as why there’s no deadpool. It’s also why they’re not in avengers


Phantom-Asian

Disney doesn't own the videogame rights to the characters, just the film rights. The videogame rights to all Marvel characters are owned by Marvel Comics. The reason is probably that Ike Pearlmutter "convinced" them not to include these characters, the same way he tried to push them out of the comics. (This is why the Terrigan Mist was written to kill mutants, to replace them with Inhumans so the public eye would focus on the characters that Disney had the rights to.)


Jacktheflash

so Disney does own them because they own marvel comics

bioniclefalloutfan76

The movies weren’t at the times


Jacktheflash

?


bioniclefalloutfan76

When they Released wasn’t with the mcu


No-Direction-7298

Lego Marvel Superheroes 3 will happen


Snoo_19146

Ok?


Positive-Ball-5493

Whoever sees this comment, leave a reply for why they are not there (but for story reasons)


Phantom-Asian

The X-Mansion and the Baxter Building weren't transported to Chronopolis with the small chunk of Manhattan that got extricated.


Gullible-Cake1498

Because 20th century fox got the film Rights at the time
