Excitement could not be higher for the anime-inspired fighter coming to PlayStation 5 and PC next year, and the buzz around it has only illuminated how well Marvel is dominating video games right now \u2014 especially when compared to the Distinguished Competition, DC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>Marvel T\u014dkon<\/em>\u2019s announcement comes after a string of successful video games featuring Marvel characters across genres; Marvel is crushing the mobile market with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/23421167\/marvel-snap-how-to-play-rules\"><em>Marvel Snap<\/em><\/a>, the hero shooter category with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/507327\/marvel-rivals-overwatch-lessons-development\"><em>Marvel Rivals<\/em><\/a>, and the single-player space with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/23910756\/spider-man-2-review-insomniac-release-date-ps5\"><em>Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man 2<\/em><\/a> and Insomniac\u2019s previous Spidey games. Marvel\u2019s games offer something for every type of gamer and, even when its games aren\u2019t commercial hits, they can still land with players and critics. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/22740560\/marvels-guardians-of-the-galaxy-game-review-star-lord-rock-drax-groot-gamora\"><em>Marvel\u2019s Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/23484477\/marvels-midnight-suns-review-release-date-characters-pc-ps5-xbox-series-x\"><em>Marvel\u2019s Midnight Suns<\/em><\/a> are two of my favorite games of this generation, and I still hold out hope for sequels to them (no matter how unlikely they are).<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Contrast that with DC, whose characters last saw success in the PS4\/Xbox One days. It\u2019s been eight years since <em>Injustice 2<\/em> dropped, DC\u2019s last objectively great game. A full decade has passed since <em>Batman: Arkham Knight<\/em>, though even that title was a bit of a letdown for some players compared to the previous Arkham games (a little less Batmobile would have gone a long way).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/marvel-is-lapping-dc-in-video-games-right-now-and-it-isnt-close-1.jpg\" alt=\"A screenshot from Batman Arkham Knight featuring Batman looking moody in front of a modern cityscape that looks like Tokyo, Japan\" title=\"A screenshot from Batman Arkham Knight featuring Batman looking moody in front of a modern cityscape that looks like Tokyo, Japan\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">DC struck gold with Rocksteady\u2019s Arkham series, releasing a series of hits from 2009-2015, yet followed that success with some curious decisions. Not one, but two Batman: Arkham VR games were released, the first in 2016 and the second in 2024 exclusively for the Meta Quest 3 (TIL the Meta Quest 3 has exclusive titles). <em>Batman: Arkham Shadow<\/em> garnered a positive reception at launch, but, I mean, are <em>you<\/em> looking to Meta Quest 3 to get your Batman: Arkham fix? Didn\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Then there was <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/23413637\/gotham-knights-review-batman-platforms-release-date-characters-30-fps\">Gotham Knights<\/a><\/em>. Despite the 2022 game featuring members of the Batfamily, it has no connection to the Arkham series. While continuing the Arkham series storyline wouldn\u2019t have saved <em>Gotham Knights<\/em> and its repetitive structure from a mediocre reception, it could have at least given fans of Rocksteady\u2019s series a reason to check it out. Instead, it\u2019s become a one-off dud.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">DC\u2019s other most notable title of this generation is <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/24062018\/suicide-squad-kill-the-justice-league-review-rocksteady\">Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League<\/a><\/em>, which <em>was<\/em> Rocksteady\u2019s continuation of the Arkham series. Its multiplayer and live service ambitions quickly sunk it, and now Rocksteady is pivoting back to Batman and the single-player space, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-02-07\/warner-bros-video-game-division-faces-thin-slate-wonder-woman-issues\">Bloomberg<\/a> report from earlier this year. That Batman game is likely years away (if it ever sees light of day), and it\u2019s increasingly likely that Rocksteady and DC as a whole go the entire PS5\/Xbox Series X generation without a hit game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Marvel isn\u2019t without its duds either; <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/reviews\/2020\/9\/4\/21422679\/marvels-avengers-review-ps4-xbox-pc-stadia-campaign-multiplayer\">Marvel\u2019s Avengers<\/a><\/em> faltered with its own crack at the live service model (and now let us hope this trend is over) and repetitive gameplay. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/602670\/black-panther-cliffhanger-game-nemsis-system-details-canceled\">A Black Panther game was also just cancelled<\/a> that would have seen an evolved version of <em>Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor<\/em>\u2019s Nemesis System \u2014 months after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/news\/529310\/warner-bros-games-monolith-productions-multiversus-studio-closure\">Warner Bros. cancelled a Wonder Woman game from Monolith<\/a>, the creators of the Nemesis System.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/marvel-is-lapping-dc-in-video-games-right-now-and-it-isnt-close-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Still, one comics giant is more obviously on an upwards trajectory than the other. Marvel is succeeding at featuring A-list characters like Spider-Man (both of \u2018em) in games as well as spotlighting lesser-known heroes like Magik in <em>Midnight Suns<\/em> or freakin\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/493135\/marvel-rivals-jeff-the-land-shark\">Jeff the Land Shark<\/a> in <em>Marvel Rivals<\/em>, while DC is struggling getting its Trinity front and center. Aside from <em>Marvel T\u014dkon<\/em>, Marvel also has <em>Marvel Cosmic Invasion<\/em>, <em>Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra<\/em>, <em>Marvel\u2019s Wolverine<\/em>, <em>Marvel\u2019s Blade<\/em>, and an Iron Man game in the pipeline. Meanwhile, DC has, if it ever actually comes out, <em>The Wolf Among Us 2<\/em>, which players may not even realize is based on the comics series <em>Fables<\/em> from DC Comics\u2019 Vertigo line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Hopefully for Wednesday Warriors who want to embody their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/comics\/600993\/superhero-video-games-we-need\">favorite heroes in video games<\/a>, DC and Warner Bros. get their acts together sooner rather than later \u2014 all it could take is the announcement of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/599343\/netherrealm-should-make-injustice-3-and-there-are-lots-of-ways-to-top-the-first-2\"><em>Injustice 3<\/em><\/a> for DC to build back some momentum. Until that happens (and please, NetherRealm, make it happen), Marvel will continue to supply comics fans with what they want: some kick-ass superhero games.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/opinion\/604229\/marvel-dc-video-game-comparisons\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Closing out Wednesday\u2019s PlayStation State of Play was a banger of an announcement: Sony revealed Marvel T\u014dkon: Fighting Souls, a tag-team fighter from Arc System Works (Dragon Ball FighterZ, Guilty Gear Strive).
