Microsoft may be working with Marvel in order to license Deadpool and Marvel Ultimate Alliance video games for Xbox. The two titles were originally published by Activision, but the company lost the rights several years ago, resulting in the games no longer being available for purchase.
A rumor reported by Tech4Gamers indicates that Xbox plans to capitalize on the massive success of Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine film by re-licensing its Deadpool and Marvel Ultimate Alliance ports. Activision, which was recently acquired by Microsoft, originally published the games, but Marvel now retains the rights to the games and the characters, which has made it so the games have been unable to be purchased. Nick Baker from Xbox Era discussed the rumor on a recent episode of the website’s podcast, saying: “[Microsoft is] looking to […] bring those two games back for PC and Series consoles.” Nothing has been officially confirmed by Marvel or Microsoft at this time.
Insomniac Games, the video game developer behind Sony PlayStation’s Marvel Spider-Man titles, announced it was developing a Wolverine video game in 2021. While the release date of Wolverine has yet to be announced, Marvel’s ties with Sony and Insomniac Games may make it difficult for Microsoft and Xbox to secure the rights to republish the old Activision games.
