The Marvel universe is being torn apart. You and your team of Marvel super heroes help Nick Fury launch a secret pre-emptive strike against Latveria and Lucia Von Bardas only to have to thwart her retalitaory attack on New York City.
Coupled with other super hero incidents, public sentiment turns against super heroes. The Superhuman Registration Act becomes law and super heroes must register as weapons of mass destruction, and become licensed government agents with the United States government. Lines are drawn as Iron Man leads the pro-registration faction, while Captain America spearheads the stand on anti-registration. You must pick a side and fight to determine the fate of the universe and humankind. So, whose side are you on.
Playable Characters
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 will feature a wide array of playable heroes and villains, some of which are available from the beginning of the game, while others will need to be unlocked. Although the final list was not available at publishing time, some of the faces from the Marvel universe that players can count on seeing include: Daredevil, Green Goblin, Human Torch, Invisible Woman, Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man, Luke Cage, Mr. Fantastic, Deadpool, Juggernaut, Thing, Spider-Man, Storm, Songbird, Thor, Iron Fist, Wolverine, Venom and Gambit.
Gameplay
As with the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance, the new version of the game is an action RPG in which players create their own fighting team made up of four super heroes/villains. The makeup of teams can be changed as the player chooses, and characters can be leveled up as they gain experience and the game progresses. In addition, the separate powers of super heroes can be combined, or "fused," resulting in unique abilities that are devastating in combat. The game contains over 250 of these fused powers that only await the right combination in battle to be released.

THAT BEING SAID: the game is addictive. It shouldn't be, as many people (including myself) do consider this a much more shallow experience compared to the first game. The plot is loosely based off Civil War but does a good job capturing the atmosphere of either side and adds a plotline of it's own somewhat continuing off of the first game. And the game doesn't really explore the other realms within Marvel besides Prison 42 and Wakanda. But I love the game. I've already replayed it several times when I probably should've moved on to other, much better games. And by that statement, I mean as in games that can appeal to everyone. This definitely appeals better if you are a Marvel fan. And if you played the first game you will probably find much more fun in it than this one. But I like this one better. I don't know why.
Maybe it is the fusion system that allows two heroes to combine their talents to form one powerful attack, maybe it is the selection of heroes this time around (Venom anyone? Even if it isn't Eddie Brock, a Brock skin is unlockable) and/or maybe it is the fact that there is a cheap yet somewhat charming 'dialogue' system that allows you (in character with whatever super hero you are playing as no less) to be Aggressive, Defensive or Diplomatic with other NPCs in the world (which add nifty little bonuses) there is just something about this game that has it now in my top ten for the moment at least.
I can't honestly recommend this game to everyone, but I love it to death.
Graphics :
Its definitely not on par with the current gen games. Its just ok, nothing more than average.
The cutscenes are of very poor quality, both from graphics and direction point of view.
MUA 1 had some superb cutscenes to show off. None of that 's here.
Gameplay:
By now most of you have heard about the bugs: characters getting stuck, repeatedly resetting to 'auto spend' character points, enemy soldiers walking in the air. And DLCs should be coming. So optimistically speaking, we can assume that they would be fixed very soon.
BUT... the core game play cant be fixed & sadly its very poor. What's there isn't bad but its just too little 'to do'. This game plays the same as MUA 1 but all the customizations and collectible equipments form MUA 1 has been greatly and i mean GREATLY stripped down. Now its like a 'kindergarten RPG'. Even X-Men Legends 1 had more 'to do' gameplay in it than MUA 2.
This is a linear game. Atleast they could have done the level design right. Even the level design in this game is poor. Certain level have these small path patterns that are repeated through out that level. Some levels are very similar to MUA 1.
They took 3 years to make this game. I had very high hopes.
MUA 1 made big improvements over X-men Legends 2.
Shockingly MUA 2 takes several steps backwards.
I have returned my copy.
Definitely don't buy this. You can rent it if you want. But I suggest not to waste your time on this one.
It had no comic with it. I paid the extra loot for it BECAUSE of the comic book. I'm not super upset it's not with it. But I would have paid less for just the game w/case and instruction booklet.
Fast shipping. But no comic. 🤷♂️

と思い購入。
英語が全く分からない自分でも、いとこと一緒に好みのヒーローを使って楽しく遊べました。
三国無双とかと違って難易度上げると本当に難しいのでやりごたえがありました
メーカーにも複雑な事情があるのでしょうが、ジャガーノートやマグニート(配信予定の追加キャラクター)で
プレイできるものと思っていたので、残念でした
ただ、ゲーム内容に関しては前作より格段に映像が見やすくなっていますし、
2人協力プレイができるところも良いですね。
