Which Marvel Games Are The Best?

There are so many Marvel games out there now, but which ones stand above the rest?

You’ve got your heavy hitters like Scarlet Witch, Captain Marvel, Thor, and Spider-Man, as well as smaller characters like Angar the Screamer and Union Jack. If you’ve ever wanted to see which comic book characters have made an appearance in the MCU, we’ve got you covered.

Okay, so, there are a lot of characters in these films, and while there are plenty of original characters made up for whatever adventure our heroes are on, there are tons pulled from the comics as well. To make it a little easier to parse through, we broke up all the Marvel films by their phases. Keep in mind that there are characters who are only ever briefly mentioned or hinted at, as well as some who might look vastly different from their comic book origins.

10 Best Marvel Games Of All Time

From Spider-Man to the Avengers, here are the best Marvel video games of all time!

Sometimes, a character’s name is used for a minor character or a background character, with little to no references to their superhero alter ego or life. For example, in Spider-Man: Homecoming, Cindy Moon is credited as one of Peter Parker’s classmates, but she doesn’t seem to have any spider powers and certainly never shows up as Silk. Despite this, we still included Cindy and many other characters as official appearances in the films, despite not showing up in any real way.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One

Phase One saw the release of the first and second Iron Man films, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, and Captain America: The First Avenger. All these films paved the way for the superhero team-up epic, The Avengers.
