MARVEL Realm of Champions is a bold, new imagining of the Marvel Universe that transports players to Battleworld, a mysterious, war-ravaged planet forged from many realities. The factions of Battleworld had been kept in isolation until Maestro marched over the land and forced the houses to unify into a single Realm, keeping a tenuous peace on the planet. The Maestro’s reign was cut short when he was mysteriously murdered, causing massive unrest and the threat of imminent war. In a last-ditch effort, a group of the House Leaders gathered and agreed to fight in a secret war to prevent an open war.
After selecting their Champion and equipping the best gear for the battle, players can team up with friends for epic multiplayer skirmishes in unique Marvel-inspired battle arenas and brawl in real-time cooperative battles for glory, triumph, and honor.
“MARVEL Realm of Champions is a game that could only be possible thanks to Kabam’s team of incredibly talented and knowledgeable creators and the level of trust and confidence we have built with Marvel Games. Marvel is an amazing partner, allowing us the opportunity to transform their properties into something that no Marvel fan has witnessed before,” said Gabriel Frizzera, Creative Director of MARVEL Realm of Champions. “This is only the beginning for Realm, we are creating a world as deep and rich as MARVEL Contest of Champions. We are looking forward to seeing how the world and stories of Battleworld unfold as players dive deep into what makes Realm special.”
“As MARVEL Contest of Champions celebrates its sixth sensational year, our amazing friends at Kabam are boldly expanding their ongoing story as they invite players around the world to select and shape their own Marvel Super Hero to battle for the fate of Battleworld,” said Marvel Games VP and Head of Creative Bill Rosemann. ““From the Super Soldiers of the noble Patriot Garrison to the Web Warriors of the secretive Spider-Guild to the Hulks of the rampaging Gamma Horde, players have the power of variety and customization at their fingertips. Choose wisely and brawl bravely!”
