Marvel’s gaming efforts have expanded significantly over the course of recent years, but there’s plenty of older licensed Marvel titles that are fondly remembered but are now next to completely inaccessible, thanks to expired licenses. Some of these fan favourites, however, might be making a comeback. 

That’s as per XboxEra co-founder Nick Baker, who recently claimed on the XboxEra Podcast that Microsoft is attempting to get the licenses renewed for the Xbox One ports of Deadpool and Marvel Ultimate Alliance, both of which were originally published by Activision.

Both titles have, of course, become exceedingly difficult to find in recent years, having been delisted following expired licenses, though given the popularity of the characters in those games, it would make sense that Microsoft may try and bring them them back. 

Whether or not this actually leads to something that remains to be seen, but both of those games are fan favourites, to say the very least, so there’s going to be no shortage of demand for both of them to see the light of day again.
