He added, "We aim to provide global users with various pleasures through top-level mobile graphics and real-time multiplayer content focused on fun in every match."


Marvel Future Revolution is the second collaboration between Netmarble and Marvel. Developed by Netmarble Monster, which gained global experience through "Marvel Future Fight," enjoyed by over 120 million players worldwide, the game involved over 200 personnel over three years, reflecting Netmarble's dedication.


The game tells the story of the superhero group "Omega Flight" protecting a world in crisis due to the cosmic phenomenon "Convergence." This story was created in collaboration with Marvel's renowned writer Mark Sumerak, who has worked on "Spider-Man" and "The Avengers."
