00:00 Welcome to Mojo Plays, and today we're counting down our picks for the 10 best Marvel
00:14 games.
00:15 For this list, we'll be looking at the best of the best in the Marvel Universe.
00:19 Comic book video games weren't always amazing, but over the years, we've gotten some of
00:24 the best.
00:25 There have been so many great Marvel games, so we may have missed your favorite.
00:29 Which Marvel game is your favorite?
00:31 Let us know in the comments.
00:43 Before we continue, we publish content all week long.

00:56 Marvel's Midnight Sons A tactical deck-building RPG with somewhat
01:09 of a dating sim?
01:11 Marvel's Midnight Sons is definitely a strange combination of genres, but for some reason,
01:16 it works.
01:17 We play as the Hunter, an all-new character that we can customize to make our own.
01:22 The Hunter and the Midnight Sons will be taking on Lilith, the mother of demons, who poses
01:26 a threat to the world.
01:28 While the story is a typical superhero story, bad guys bad, good guys save the day, the
01:33 gameplay is unique when it comes to a superhero game.
01:36 Midnight Sons is a tactical game akin to XCOM, with the twist of the cards acting as your
01:42 abilities.
01:43 While not in battle, we'll be building our friendships with the heroes.
01:47 Acting like having Blade lounge by the pool.
01:59 The Punisher Is the Punisher a one-trick pony?
02:12 It seems all he ever does is seek revenge for his family's death.
02:16 The Punisher may be one of the darkest, grittier Marvel games, but this dark anti-hero game
02:21 sets itself apart with the darker theme.
02:24 The Punisher is your typical third-person action game with a focus on brutality.
02:29 You'll have your typical guns and melee weapons and the ability to use environmental objects
02:34 at your disposal.
02:35 You may not think of The Punisher when you think of great Marvel games, but going back
02:39 to his violent tale of vengeance proves we don't always have to be a good guy to have
02:44 fun.
02:52 Marvel Snap We often dismiss gacha games or phone games,
03:05 but Marvel Snap is full of quality and fun.
03:08 Marvel Snap doesn't try to create anything new here.
03:11 It's a deck-building game, but instead of Wizards and Goblins, the cards are based on
03:16 Marvel.
03:17 Snap plays out in six turns, making the matches fly by and having you sitting there for hours
03:22 playing match after match.
03:24 The deck size is smaller with only 12 cards per deck, but this helps with strategy.
03:29 You'll be able to easily set a deck up for moving, destroying, and buffing.
03:34 Making a deck with synergy is the main appeal.
03:38 Since it's a mobile game, of course there are some dreadful gacha mechanics, but Snap
03:42 doesn't shove it down your throat and actually has you unlocking cards at a pretty nice pace.
03:47 Marvel Snap takes all the gross mobile junk and gacha games away and gives players excellent
03:52 rewards to keep them playing.
04:06 X-Men I hope you brought a lot of quarters, because
04:15 this arcade game is no joke.
04:17 X-Men is a classic Konami side-scrolling beat-em-up that often is forgotten compared to some of
04:22 the other classics.
04:24 This dual-screen, six-player arcade beat-em-up has us playing as one of six X-Men as we take
04:29 on Magneto and his goons.
04:32 This is the 90s X-Men, so we have our typical crew of Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler,
04:37 Colossus, and Dazzler.
04:39 The gameplay is pretty standard, moving left to right, punching and kicking any baddies
04:43 that happen to be in our way until we finally face Magneto.
04:48 Along the way you'll run into classic X-Men baddies like Juggernaut, The Blob, and Mystique.
04:53 X-Men is probably one of the best superhero arcade games, and the cabinet sets itself
04:57 apart with the dual monitors and actual room for players to stand.
05:11 Marvel Ultimate Alliance
05:25 Ultimate Alliance is a Marvel fan's dream game.
05:27 A group of supervillains form an alliance in hopes of attaining ultimate power and controlling
05:32 the world.
05:33 So naturally, heroes do the same, but for the good of the world.
05:37 Marvel Ultimate Alliance has us picking a team of four from the 20-hero roster to travel
05:42 through the Marvel Universe to see different characters and locations.
05:46 Ultimate Alliance is an action RPG that focuses on the squad you build.
05:51 You could take any four characters and throw them into your squad, but an established team
05:55 will gain buffs.
06:05 Marvel vs. Capcom 2 - New Age of Heroes
06:16 One of the biggest crossover fighting games ever has to be MVC2.
06:21 Marvel vs. Capcom 2 takes both worlds of Marvel and Capcom and throws them into a ring to
06:26 duke it out.
06:27 Pick your team of three fighters, the last one standing takes the victory.
06:31 Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is often praised for its huge roster with deep cuts.
06:36 But with 56 characters of all shapes and sizes, balancing is not the game's forte.
06:41 While Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was more balanced, there's something fun about the roster being
06:46 out there and sort of broken.
06:55 Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy
07:02 I don't think a video game has portrayed comic book characters as well as Guardians of the
07:07 Galaxy has.
07:09 Guardians of the Galaxy stayed true to the characters, with Star-Lord being the goofy
07:12 lovable leader, Gilmora being a hardened killer, Drax being the dummy of the group, and Rocket
07:19 and Groot showing brotherly love.
07:22 Even if Rocket has a bad mouth on him.
07:25 The galaxy is threatened and the Guardians plan on saving it.
07:28 To do so, they'll travel to unique planets full of just as unique baddies.
07:32 The main draw to Guardians of the Galaxy is the gameplay.
07:36 Seeing the team fight along each other while using combos really makes the team feel like
07:40 a team.
07:41 Everything we fell in love with from the Guardians of the Galaxy movie is here, with the exception
07:45 of Chris Pratt.
07:46 The game oozes 80s nostalgia and even has the iconic music.
07:58 The Incredible Hawk - Ultimate Destruction
08:07 I've never felt like the Hawk more than when playing Ultimate Destruction.
08:11 While the story isn't the main draw to Ultimate Destruction, it's still here.
08:15 Bruce Banner goes into hiding, only to be found by the Division.
08:19 The game has us playing as the Hawk in an open world that is ours to destroy.
08:24 This is where the game shines.
08:25 The combat makes you feel powerful by letting you run up buildings, leap around while pushing
08:30 cars out of the way, and even taking buses and turning them into boxing gloves.
08:35 The Incredible Hawk - Ultimate Destruction is the ultimate power trip that's full of
08:39 destructive mayhem.
08:45 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes - The LEGO games are always a blast, and when there's a property
08:59 involved, so much care goes into the world and characters.
09:02 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is a love letter to all Marvel in a cute little LEGO package.
09:08 The heroes must stop Loki before he collects all the cosmic bricks.
09:12 To do this, we'll be traveling the open world and doing missions to take on familiar villains.
09:17 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes has a huge roster of 155 playable minifigs.
09:23 Now some of these are more funny joke characters like Stan Lee, but the game is full of great
09:28 heroes like Iron Man and the Hawk.
09:31 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes could have been an easy cash grab, and it turned into a great
09:35 open world superhero game full of charm and blocks to break.
09:49 Marvel's Spider-Man - Is there any better Marvel game than Marvel's Spider-Man?
10:00 Well maybe Spider-Man Miles Morales, but both games set the bar for what we want in a Marvel
10:05 game.
10:06 Everything in this game felt perfect.
10:09 Combat felt like we'd imagine comic book punches to feel, swinging around New York was the
10:13 best we've ever seen and felt, and seeing a more mature Peter Parker was refreshing too.
10:20 We played as a seasoned Spider-Man in Marvel's Spider-Man, so jumping to Miles Morales was
10:24 a nice change for us as Miles was just learning his power, and all that can be felt in his
10:29 swinging and combat.
10:31 No matter which of the two Spider-Man games you like, either can be called the best Marvel
10:35 video game.
