X-Men: Destiny
X Men Destiny is the upcoming game from Marvel and Activision. This new video game will feature many of your favorite classic mutants as well as some new mutants. One of these new mutants is going to be you. Unlike many other action games where the play is linear, you will be able to make choices that affect the direction of your game and your gaming experience. Although there is little information about this game so far, we can make some speculative conclusions based upon the information we already have.
Some Educated Guesses
Who?
We know this newest X-Men video game will feature classic X-Men characters. From the trailer it is safe to assume we will see Wolverine, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Nightcrawler and Magneto. It will also feature you, the player, as a mutant. Judging from the silhouettes in the X-Men: Destiny game trailer when they mention "you" I think we can assume you will be able to customize your character to some degree. Probably picking out your avatars sex and race at the minimum and if it is really cool you will have the option to pick physical mutations as well. Hopefully powers will also be customizable. This may even be Marvels attempt at answering rival DC Universe's call to arms with DC Universe (DCU) Online.
What?
This is an X-Men game so I am sure there will be plenty of action. It would not be much of a Marvel Comic video game if there was not. We know you as a player character get to make choices that affect the game outcome. If this brings to mind games such as Fable and Dragon Age. These games are adventure roll-playing in nature and allow the characters to move through the world in a non-linear story that invokes the gamer's imagination and allows much more freedom that traditional video games. I even sensed a hint of good vs. evil in the trailer. I think we can make the assumption this game will have both action and roll-play adventure aspects to it. If it compares to Dragon Age it will be phenomenal.
Where & When?
This game will take place at least in part on earth in our present time. Being an X-Men story there is always the possibility of space travel and even time travel. The trailer depicts the Golden Gate Bridge which is in San Francisco, this just happens to be where the X-Men currently reside, which is probably not a coincidence.
Why?
They made this new video game because it may just be the coolest superhero game of all time. If this is done right you will get to create a mutant and pick his or her powers. You will be able to develop your character's powers and grow more powerful as you progress. Not only that but you will also be able to choose if you want to aid humanity or join the mutants who want to rule the world. If this X-Men Destiny video game lives up to its full potential it will rock both the video game and comic book worlds.
