LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2
Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 is a Lego-themed action-adventure video game developed by Traveller's Tales. It is the sequel to 2013's Lego Marvel Super Heroes and the third instalment of the Lego Marvel franchise. With the core gameplay following the same style of past Lego titles, the game features the ability to manipulate time and a four-player competitive Super Hero battle mode. Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2's storyline centers around superheroes from different eras and realities of the Marvel Universe as they fight against the time-travelling villain Kang the Conqueror in a battle across space and time.
What it feels like
LEGO comedy, Family Friendly tag, and irreverent tone toward Marvel canon define the experience. Mischievous humor and encouragement to mess around with the LEGO world and character interactions.
What it's about
Superheroes band together against a great evil antagonist across time and space. Time-travel villain Kang and alternate realities create a sci-fi narrative framework. Kang's time-traveling plot involves manipulation of alternate realities and timelines.
How it plays
Fast melee combat against multiple enemies with flashy chained attacks is the core moment-to-moment gameplay in LEGO Marvel. Navigating hazardous geometry and jumping puzzles through LEGO environments is a consistent gameplay element. The core mechanic explicitly involves ability to manipulate time as part of the main gameplay and story with Kang.
How it looks and sounds
LEGO's chibi-like character proportions and colorful, friendly aesthetic.
How it's structured
The game features an open-world environment for exploration and freely-chosen progression through content. Discrete story missions and challenges branch from central hubs, characteristic of LEGO game structure. Four-player split-screen and shared-screen co-op is a core advertised feature.
