Wednesday, January 16, 2002 - It was announced that Marvel has reached two agreements with Universal Interactive and Encore to release video games based on two popular superheroes.
Universal Interactive will publish a game based on The Incredible Hulk.
"The Incredible Hulk is a classic entertainment franchise that provides innumerable creative possibilities to explore," said Jim Wilson, president of Universal Interactive. "UI is looking forward to creating video games that convey all the excitement of The Incredible Hulk and push the envelope on gameplay mechanics."
Encore has reached another agreement to develop a game based on the adventures of Daredevil. The game will feature many characters from the comic series like Bullseye, Kingpin and Elektra. The release of the game will probably get along the release of the upcoming Daredevil movie coming out in late 2002.
"Marvel's Daredevil is an enormously popular character with a huge fan base who are eagerly awaiting this video game," said Michael Bell, chairman and CEO of Encore. "The debut of the console game and the live-action film will not only dramatically expand that fan base, but also propel Daredevil into mainstream popular culture"
It was not announced on which platform the games will be released.
