What appears to be footage from EA Motive's long-in-development - and somewhat missing-in-development - Iron Man game has leaked.
The Iron Man footage (via Resetera) shows two-and-a-half minutes of gameplay from various areas of the game. What's immediately impressive is the sense of freedom and speed as you fly around what appears to be an open-world city space, and open battlefields, descending to on-foot combat and back into aerial combat in a fraction of a second.
There's a pleasing zip and sense of impact in combat as well, as Iron Man flings enemies around or smashes them into walls or the ground. And his arsenal appears vast, sporting laser beams - yes, the chest beam - rockets and many destructive gadgets.
Speaking of Iron Man's arsenal: there appears to be some kind of suit customisation in the game. We see Tony Stark - not modelled on Robert Downey Junior, although not far off - in a room surrounded by Iron Man suits, then he interacts with a panel to presumably make alterations to one of them. The suit then reconfigures around him.
The trailer itself is a work-in-progress, so there are unfinished parts, but there's an obvious emphasis on cinematic storytelling as Stark visits famed locations such as the gigantic S.H.I.E.L.D helicarrier, and talks to characters I'm sure we'll recognise once we know their names. There's even a brief section where he appears to be in a bamboo forest somewhere.
The footage is labelled as being from an "Aug26 test", by the way, so taken at face value, it's recent. There's no release date; a placeholder "Release Window" phrase is seen at the end of the trailer without a window itself. (The video also lists the executive producer as "Ultron" and the world director as "The Hulk", amusingly.) I've asked EA for comment.
EA Motive's Iron Man game was announced four years ago, and at the time, was one of "several" superhero games EA would collaborate with Marvel on. A few years later, however, a Black Panther game EA was making was reportedly cancelled.
This isn't the first attempt at an Iron Man game in relatively recent memory. Just Cause developer Avalanche reportedly had an Iron Man game in development in around 2012, which footage coincidentally leaked from earlier this week.
