    Default Gazillion Reveals Marvel Super Hero Squad Online MMO

    http://www.shsonline.com/

    Gazillion Entertainment has revealed their first MMO based in the Marvel Universe today, Super Hero Squad Online! Super Hero Squad Online is a MMO directed at the younger crowd, and is based specifically on the popular Super Hero Squad IP which is known for its impressive action figure line and animated series.



    Super Hero Squad Online is being developed by Gazillion's The Amazing Society studio, and will allow players to form a squad from a selection of their favorite Marvel superheroes and embark on adventures all over the world and in familiar locations from the TV series. The game will also feature a robust headquarters customization system, where players can show off their trophies and watch their squad members interact with their created environment.

    Super Hero Squad Online is the first MMO being developed as part of Gazillion's 10 year exclusive publishing agreement with Marvel Entertainment. So those of you who are about to freak out that this is "the" Marvel MMO, rest assured, they've got more for ya!

    You'll be able to get your first look at SHSO this Friday, May 14th at 12:30AM when the teaser trailer will be revealed on GameTrailers TV.

    note that Marvel Universe Online is still in development (by Gazillion too), both are not the same game.

    Not anytime soon, i read 2012 for Marvel Universe Online. Good timing I guess, by then Thor and Captain America movies would have been out, and its Avengers' year

    DC Universe is coming out (most probably) in 2011, it will be suicide to launch 2 big superhero franchise games too near to each other.

    If DC Universe has Atlantis, its game on for me

    The original development for Marvel Universe Online was canned. Gazillion Entertainment then bought the rights from Marvel to make games for them, and restarted the MMO project.

    Marvel Super Hero Squad Online is the more cutesy version (watched the cartoon), wonder how it plays out.

    Actually the original development of Marvel was not canned. All things marvel related (in terms of abilities and iconic superheroes/heroines) and replaced them with non-iconic characters to any comic book whatsoever. This game became Cryptics "Champions Online".
