Loved X-Men: Rise of the Apocalypse and the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Seeing the trailer has inspired me to whip out Ultimate Alliance and binge play it again.

Still my favourite opening in any marvel game "That dude scares me" This trailer is up there with the Marvel vs Capcom 3 cinematic trailers (including the long static one where Magneto faces down Galactus at the end.)

So what roster do you think we are getting? Probably all the MCU characters, plus a few Inhumans and maybe a few X-Men.

As well as the other Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel, Deadpool and She-hulk... I could see them adding Howard the Duck as like a joke character... maybe Cosmo if lockjaw is playable. Tchalla is a lock.

Hoping the gameplay's closer to X-Men Legends than the original Ultimate Alliance. The latter felt more of a bare-bones version of the former.

It looks a bit more like the former, to me, though I'll miss being able to throw people. Then again, given how broken it was to just chuck enemies off of cliffs easily, it did kind of cheapen the combat if you could just choose to not engage with it, when that was an option.

Yeah, it was kinda cheap, but throwing AIM agents off the Helicarrier, or clowns into the meat grinders in MurderWorld, always gave me a chuckle. Especially with how many heroes in the game have "no kill" rules.

I hope Murder World makes a return. That was a really fun level in the original.

Heroes had a really diverse roster, and if they're recycling assets, it gives me hope there'll be some left-field roster inclusions from Heoes, like Moon Knight, She-Hulk or Nova.

Maybe, but she didn't appear at all in 1, and was just an NPC in 2, plus she hasn't been in that much media outside the comics and phone games, unlike most of the announced roster. She may not necessarily be left field, but there are definitely some characters I can see getting the green light (no pun intended... okay, maybe a little intended) before her.

She was a major part of an Avengers Academy Event... before they completely ruined teh game and then shut it down. >_> she was also in MVC 3

Especially in UMVC3 when you could have her and Phoenix Wright on the same team.

So, a couple things came to mind while thinking about this game, and I figured I'd list some fun facts about the Ultimate Alliance series:
-Of the confirmed roster, The following characters have appeared in all Ultimate Alliance games: Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, Black Panther, Hulk, Captain Marvel, Wolverine, Storm, Spider-Man, Venom, Daredevil, Deadpool, Thor, and Nick Fury.
-Despite appearing in all 3 games, UA 3 will be Black Widow's first playable appearance in the series, having been an NPC in both previous games and a boss in 2. (She was playable in the PSP version of 1, but I'm not counting the handheld versions of the games.)
-Black Panther and the Hulk both share the distinction of having been a collectible unlocked character in one game (BP in 1, Hulk in 2), a DLC character in another (Hulk in 1, BP in 2), and a main roster character in the third.
-If we count the X-Men Legends games as precursors to the UA series, then Wolverine and Storm are tied for most playable appearances, being playable in all 5 games. Iceman, Deadpool, and Iron Man are next, with 4 appearances each.
-Nick Fury has been unlocked by completing the main story in every UA game in the series to date. Hopefully, UA 3 keeps up the trend.
-Moon Knight, Colossus, Hawkeye, and Hulk are the only characters in the first UA game to have no unique dialogue in the hub worlds or against bosses. In UA 2, Iron Fist and Songbird have this distinction.

I used Songbird alot in #2 so hope she returns.
Hopefully a few villains are playable. I'd enjoy playing as Vulture or Scorpion.
