Some characters swing around on webs and fire their web-shooters, others rely on ranged attacks or close-quarters melee skills. Marvel, feels different from fighting as Thor or Spidey. Here though, characters have very different movement styles, combat styles and special abilities. The fighting in Lego games is fun, but it’s often not that challenging or varied one punch, smash or energy blast works pretty much like another. The result isn’t just the most interesting and varied open world setting of any Lego game, but one where the action can switch from medieval castles to Asgard to the old west to a 1940s film noir Manhattan to the future to undersea kingdoms in a heartbeat, without anything feeling out of place.Ĭrucially, we also get the most interesting set of abilities of any Lego game. Kang provides a great hook for the proceedings too, arriving in Manhattan then rapidly stealing the borough to add it to Chronopolis – a city forged from Kang’s favourite chunks of the Marvel universe. What’s more, the more obscure stars are arguably the most fun to play. And while you’ll spend a lot of the lengthy campaign playing a huge range of guest heroes, the teams focus in on combinations of the best-known heroes – Thor, Spidey, Captain America, Doctor Strange – with names that are currently outside the cinematic universe, including Ms. It’s a good sign when the main villain of the piece isn’t Loki, Thanos, Magneto or even Galactus, but Kang the Conquerer – a classic sixties Marvel villain whose hobbies include time travel and dominating worlds.

While there are references to the movies – specifically the Avengers and Guardians movies, plus Thor Ragnarok – this one’s obsessed with exploring the weird corners of the comic-book universe, including alternate realities like the 2099 and Noir settings, where you’ll find unusual, twisted versions of your favourite Marvel stars.
Where Lego Marvel’s Avengers was constrained by the characters and plotlines of the phase 1 and phase 2 Marvel movies, Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 returns to the world-hopping, hero-jumping lunacy of the first Lego Marvel Super Heroes game. It helps that, like the most recent Marvel movies, it revels in the sheer intergalactic craziness of the Marvel comics universe without restraint. I want to recommend Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 because it’s so much fun. In fact, it’s the best superhero game TT Games has yet produced, beating both the original Lego Marvel Super Heroes and last year’s Lego Marvel’s Avengers, not to mention my previous personal favourite, Lego Batman 2.
LEGO MARVEL SUPER HEROES DELUXE SERIES
I want to give it a great review because it’s the Lego series – and the Marvel universe – at its best. These are great, feel-good games that just about anyone can get stuck into, and arguably the best family games to come from any developer that’s not Nintendo.Īll the same, I don’t want to give Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 a great review because TT Games deserves it. It’s why they go out and buy a Lego game two or even three times every year. I think the series’ fans – and they’re out there – understand this. With maybe the odd exception, TT Games has also kept the quality level high, each game bringing its own distinct feel to the Lego style, each game respecting the universe it plays in, and each, more often than not, improving on the last.īuy Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 from Amazon UK | For all the talk about the games being formulaic, each maintains a tricky balance between staying true to what fans expect from the brand and bringing in enough new features to keep things exciting. I’m not alone in thinking that TT Games and its Lego series don’t always get the respect that either deserve.
