High Moon Studios is going all out on the development for their upcoming video game based on Marvel’s “Merc With A Mouth” Deadpool.
Two new characters from the Marvel universe have been revealed as a part of the game’s hero/villain roster – Mister Sinister and X-Men’s Psylocke. Check out the pics (and Deadpool’s hilarious description of them below):
Deadpool took some time out of his busy mercenary schedule to post a few words about his game’s newest members, too:
Sooo, uhhhh, APPARENTLY there are characters in my new upcoming Activision game, DEADPOOL, who are not Deadpool! Right??
I thought it was pretty clear when I said I wanted a true Deadpool game that it would star Deadpool…in every role! My star power shouldn’t be limited to the central protagonist. I should be playing the hero, the anti-hero, the villain who eventually changes sides to join forces against the TRUE villain (me), the romantic interest, the quirky best friend, the comic relief, and at least 8 other characters in fat suits! Is that too much to ask?!
But…I’ve been talking to my therapist…and she says it’s important that I not allow the existence of other people who are not me to determine my own self-worth. I just have to be the best unhinged mutant mercenary I can be. So, here’s a look at some of the…other…characters you can meet in DEADPOOL.
Cable and Deadpool.
Domino.
Cable and Deadpool’s X-Force partner Domino are also along for the ride. Check out their pics above (nagging Cable must be one of ‘Pool’s favorite hobbies).
Long time writer for the Deadpool comic, Daniel Way, is penning the story for this third-person shooter. Check out the latest trailer for this comic book-themed shooter above. For a preview of the game, check out this gameplay vid from Rev3Games below.
Deadpool will be available on June 25, 2013 for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
