Don't Revive Your Friends

In what seemingly came out of nowhere (at least to me because I live under a rock, apparently), EA announced that a new studio, Cliffhanger Games, will be working with Marvel to develop a Black Panther game. With the success of Spider-Man and the hype of the upcoming Wolverine game, this is pretty darn exciting. Read more below: As we celebrate the 57th anniversary of Black Panther’s comic debut this July, we’re thrilled to announce Cliffhanger Games, a new triple-A development studio based in Seattle, is working on an original, third-person, single-player Black Panther game in collaboration with Marvel Games.
