Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra

Upcoming Marvel Games in 2027 That Will Blow Your Mind

Marvel’s 2027 lineup includes a WWII team-up, a Venom spin-off, Iron Man in flight, and Blade in Paris. Here are the seven games worth tracking, with platforms and release windows.

A running list of Marvel games has been sitting in a notes app for about three years. Some entries got crossed out (RIP to a couple of projects covered later), some got delayed, and a few turned out to be nothing but wishful thinking on Reddit.

But the 2027 slate?

That’s the first year where almost everything on the list looks genuinely real, and honestly, it’s a stacked one.

There’s a World War II epic from the person who made Uncharted. A Venom game that grew out of a single mission in Spider-Man 2. Iron Man flying around in something that leaked before EA was ready to talk about it.

And that’s before getting to the vampire in Paris.

So here are the seven upcoming Marvel games worth betting on for 2027, plus one cancelled project that still stings.

#1 Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra

Developer: Skydance New Media | Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S | Window: 2027 at the earliest

This is the one worth being most curious about.

Amy Hennig is running the show, and anyone who played the Uncharted games already knows why that matters. The setting is occupied Paris, and the story pairs Captain America with T’Chanda, the 1940s Black Panther and T’Challa’s grandfather.

Two heroes who don’t trust each other, forced to work together while a war rages around them. It’s a great premise, and the trailer actually sold it instead of just showing a logo.

The awkward part is timing. It was originally penciled in for 2026, then quietly pushed back, and now the earliest realistic date is sometime in 2027.

The reassuring news is that the game is reportedly playable start to finish internally, and Paramount’s games division has been vocal about its confidence in the team.

Unreal Engine 5 is doing the heavy lifting on the visuals.

For the full Black Panther experience in 2027, this is where to find it. More on that in a minute.

#2 Marvel’s Venom

Developer: Insomniac Games | Platforms: PS5 (almost certainly) | Window: September 2027, if the rumors hold

That Venom section in Spider-Man 2 felt like a proof of concept more than a side mission. Turns out that wasn’t just wishful thinking.

Insomniac has been linked to a standalone Venom project for a while now, and the chatter from people who actually know things points to Eddie Brock as the lead, a full campaign, and an expanded map that stretches into the Bronx and Staten Island.

The combat sounds like the Spider-Man games with the safety off. Grabs, dashes, tentacles everywhere, plus a character-swap mechanic that borrows from Insomniac’s previous work.

The tone likely lands somewhere between Spider-Man 2 and something noticeably darker. Scope is why it slipped from an earlier slot to 2027, suggesting this isn’t a small side project.

#3 Marvel’s Iron Man

Developer: Motive Studio (EA) | Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S | Window: 2027 or 2028

Someone at EA probably had a bad week when that early trailer leaked.

Motive, the studio behind the Dead Space remake, is building a single-player Iron Man game, and the leaked footage showed free flight, seamless switches between air and ground combat, and suit customization tied to SHIELD.

EA’s response was basically a shrug and a “well, that wasn’t the plan,” which is as close to confirmation as it gets in this industry.

The big question is whether anyone can nail the feeling of flying in a suit of armor. Plenty of games let you glide; very few make you feel like a fighter jet with a personality problem.

Motive has the technical chops. Whether it has the time is another matter, because 2027 is the earliest plausible date, and nobody has committed to it publicly.

#4 Marvel’s Blade

Developer: Arkane Lyon (Bethesda) | Platforms: Xbox, PlayStation, PC | Window: November 2027, reportedly

Arkane Lyon announced this at The Game Awards and then went quiet, which is very on-brand for the studio.

What’s known: it’s third-person, it’s set in Paris, and it involves vampires getting hit with a sword. Full production reportedly kicked off in late 2024, and a fairly credible rumor has November 2027 circled.

Here’s why this one deserves more attention than it usually gets. Arkane’s immersive sims are the kind of games where you spend twenty minutes figuring out three different ways into a building.

A Blade game built with that mindset stalking through nightclubs, using environmental tricks, picking the right moment sounds a lot more interesting than a straight brawler.

It also gives Marvel something it doesn’t have much of: an R-rated, genuinely dark corner of the universe.

#5 Project Comet

Developer: Scopely | Platforms: PC and mobile, with cross-play | Window: Does not have an official release date yet

Not everything needs to cost seventy dollars and take a hundred hours.

Project Comet hasn’t been officially announced, but leaked trailers have been floating around for a while, and they show an open-world RPG with four-player co-op and instant cross-play between PC and phones.

The obvious reference points are Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves.

It’s free to play, it’s from Scopely (the Monopoly Go people), and it’s aimed squarely at people who don’t own a console. That combination might sound off to some longtime Marvel gamers.

But mobile and browser-adjacent Marvel games have a massive audience, and if the leaks are accurate, this is a far more ambitious swing than the usual puzzle-and-collect stuff.

Worth watching, even for skeptics.

#6 Marvel’s Spider-Man 3

Developer: Insomniac Games | Platforms: PS5 | Window: Late 2027, maybe, possibly, don’t hold anyone to it

Yes, the “maybe” is doing a lot of work in that heading. Insomniac hasn’t said a word about Spider-Man 3 officially.

But both previous games landed in the September–October range; the studio has been hiring for something big, and the natural rhythm of these releases points to late 2027.

The complication is Venom. Insomniac can’t ship two enormous games in the same window, and if Venom takes September, Spider-Man probably slides to 2028.

So why include it? Because even the chance of a new mainline Spidey game in the same year as a Venom spin-off and an Iron Man title is worth getting excited about.

If it slips, it slips. Fans will survive.

The Black Panther situation

A lot of people were excited about the standalone Marvel’s Black Panther game that EA and Cliffhanger Games were building.

An original single-player story set in Wakanda, third-person, with no movie tie-in. It sounded great.

Unfortunately, it was cancelled in 2025, and that’s the end of it.

The consolation prize is that Black Panther still gets a lead role in Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra, playable alongside Captain America.

It’s not the solo Wakanda adventure anyone wanted, but it’s a better send-off than nothing.

Where this leaves us

Taken together, 2027 looks like the year Marvel’s gaming strategy finally pays off.

There’s a prestige cinematic project, a violent anti-hero power fantasy, a flying superhero game, a dark vampire story, a free-to-play open world for phone players, and two Insomniac titles in the mix.

Different genres, different platforms, different audiences.

The thread connecting them is that Marvel seems to be picking developers with actual track records instead of chasing whatever’s hot. Hennig, Motive, Arkane, Insomniac.

That’s a good sign for anyone who’s been burned by a licensed game before.

Dates will move. Some of these might not make it to 2027. But the direction is right, and that alone is worth paying attention to.
