The as of yet untitled game is being worked on by Tomb Raider developers Crystal Dynamics, with a little help from Eidos-Montreal, the team behind the Deus Ex franchise.

Aside from the teaser trailer announcing the project, there’s little information to go on and it looks like it’ll be a while before we hear anything else, with Marvel and Square Enix promising that more details about this and future games “will be announced sometime in 2018.”

Phil Rogers, CEO of Square Enix Americas and Europe, had a few words to say about the new partnership:
 
“It’s exciting to bring together Square Enix’s award-winning development studios with Marvel’s extraordinary storytellers to establish a new entertainment powerhouse. This collaboration of passion and talent will craft epic, imaginative experiences allowing gamers to live out their Super Hero dreams like never before.”
