New Black Panther, Captain America Game From Amy Hennig Unveiled at State of Unreal 2024

IGN: "We already knew that Amy Hennig, the award-winning writer and director behind games such as Jak 3 and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, was working on a narrative-driven Marvel game focused on Captain America and Black Panther. And today, we finally learned some new details, including its official title: Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra. It'll arrive sometime in 2025. Kicking off State of Unreal 2024, Skydance Media unveiled the first trailer for the game, which you can check out below."

I mean I assume everything here is in engine and there does seem to be some in game footage. It looks really good. I think this is what people were expecting from the gen in terms of visuals after the initial Unreal Engine 5 footage shown back in 2020.

DAY ONE!!!

[mariopasta]

This trailer really got my psyched. Great setting too, 1945. Perfect. I wonder will we be playing as both at certain times? Hope it's very very "wide linear" or "semi-open" environments. I want to sneak in with stealth using Black Panther perched in a tree at night time .

Kinda funny that Cap looks like the dude who plays US Soldier in the Marvel movies/series.

[CobraKai]

SAME!!! I needs a great Captain America game

"I assume everything here is in engine and there does seem to be some in game footage."

It was rendered real time no smoke and mirrors.

characters are also metahuman based. UE5 is truly nuts.

[CantThinkOfAUsername]

The facial animations are really good. UE5 is a great tool in the right hands.

[Storm23]

Truly beautiful. And I love Amy Hennig. Personally, it sucks that it is a Marvel game as I have zero interest in anything related to that universe. Too bad for e but super happy for all the people that will enjoy this.

[BanginTunes]

I can guarantee the finished game will be low framerate with an ugly upscaling solution on affordable hardware

Hey it's Ezekiel in a game.

[ChasterMies]

Phenomenal.

You can never do too wrong with cinematics, but gameplay, on the other hand 🤔 that's what will determine the fate of this game

It´s a game from Amy Henning, so I´m positive gameplay will be top notch!

HYPE IS REAL!

[solideagle]

I think She is a writer not gameplay designer

[raWfodog]

I agree with you that this is something to look forward to but sometimes 'hype' can hurt more than help. It can set expectations too high and then if a 'good' game isn't great, it can sometimes feel disappointing. I hope the gameplay reveal is nice though.

@solideagle

"I think She is a writer not gameplay designer"

She´s also a *game director*! A VERY talented and competent one.

Look it up!

[Cacabunga]

Not much hypes you...

[outsider1624]

Damn the facial animations looks good. Here's hoping gameplay is great as well.

[chaoslh]

It's in game. They showed it after this trailer.

[-Foxtrot]

I think it looks decent if we go by the cinematics but gameplay is where I'll draw my final judgment

The music reminded me a little of Uncharted funnily enough.

[Ninver]

*rubs hands like birdman*

Yeah it's looking saucey

[babadivad]

How many Black Panther games are coming?

[Friendlygamer]

1

[-Foxtrot]

Yeah kind of odd to have Black Panther in this and then give him a solo game with T'Challa

There's so many Marvel heroes like Daredevil, The Punisher, Moonknight, Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange etc who would be great picks for their own games.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

A grand total of 2

[SlothLordPootus]

I REALLY wish Amy Hennig was working on something non-licensed.

[AdonisIsBeast]

Think Sweet Baby Inc. will be consulting on this one?

[Ray J]

Let‘s pray Sweet Baby Inc. stays away as far as possible from this Black Panther game, so they can’t ruin it with their toxic nonsense.

There is a former Sweet Baby Inc. employee in charge of a new Balck Panther game, but that one is in development by Cliffhanger Games and published by EA. So fingers crossed only the EA one gets infected by SBI, while the Amy Hennig one reaches its full potential.

[Inverno]

Wonder who the third supe is, also the link leads to a 404.

[Lightning77]

I think it's in engine. We have to wait for DF to look into it. If it is, its pretty damn impressive graphically and presentation.

I think it's SP only which is a major win imo.

[badz149]

lemme guess...set in another universe?

[Good-Smurf]

Amy is in streaks of bad luck or something any game she got involved the past 10 years were all got cancelled, poorly received or in development hell.
Hopefully and finally, this would be the game that break those bad streaks, shipped a game at this point in her career would be a big accomplishment worthy of a celebration.

[repsahj]

I like it!!...........so far.

[Huey_My_D_Long]

Love to see that Khary Payton, Voice of Cyborg, got the role!
