The rumors surrounding a Black Panther game being in development have finally been confirmed by EA in a surprise announcement yesterday.

Cliffhanger Games

The developers at the helm of the AAA rated Black Panther Game are a newly established EA studio called Cliffhanger games, the team is led by Kevin Stephens (Monolith Productions) and includes some of the developers behind Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Halo Infinite, God of War and Call of Duty.

EA and Cliffhanger Games are keeping all of the details close to their chest for now, with the game in early production there’s not much information regarding a potential release date, story line or even what platforms the game is being made for. All we do currently know for sure is that the Black Panther game is set to be “an original third-person, single-player adventure developed in partnership with Marvel Games.”

Motive Studios and Iron Man

Back in 2022 it was revealed that Marvel and EA Games entered an agreement to develop at least three story-adventure games based on Marvel comics characters. The first of the three Marvel games to be revealed was from Motive Studios, the creators of Dead Space, who announced in 2022 that they were working on an “all-new single-player, action-adventure Iron Man game.”

With not much further information on the Iron Man game currently in development it’s difficult to draw any comparisons between the two titles, one thing’s for sure though, the level of detail the devs are promising is definitely something to be excited about.

“We’re dedicated to delivering fans a definitive and authentic Black Panther experience, giving them more agency and control over their narrative than they have ever experienced in a story-driven video game”
