Gameloft and Marvel Announce ‘Thor: The Dark World’ Hack-and-Slash

TouchArcade Rating:

Thor: The Dark World – The Official Game is an actual name of an upcoming game. And just so we’re clear here because that title sure isn’t, it’ll be THE official tie-in game for Thor: The Dark World, an upcoming movie starring Chris Hemsworth’s crazy big delts.

Dark World is being developed by Gameloft in partnership with Marvel, Gameloft says in today’s announcement materials for the game. And you know what? It could be pretty rad. The footage we’ve got below reveals it as a hack-and-slash, which is a good genre for a hero that hits things with a hammer. Also, Gameloft is pretty good at making these kinds of games, if Dungeon Hunter 4’s solid mechanics are any indication of skill.

We don’t know much more about this one outside of the fact that it’s hitting this fall as a free-to-play title and it’ll pack in social hooks “where fans join forces to earn victory." As more information comes, we’ll bring it to you.

          hi, not sure if you would know but any news on "Buddy & Me" by Sunbreak Games?

    2. defunct32

      It's out in the Singapore app store for 8.98, I saw "offer in-app purchase" oh Square... But this kinda looks good I can't resist, buying it later tomorrow!

      Please don't drain my wallet Squeenix! I will happily buy your games at 15, 20 dollars a throw, but if it needs IAP, I don't care good it is...

      *fingers crossed* it's not required!

      1. defunct32

        As long as it's not PTW IAPs I'm fine with it.

      It looks like Infinity Blade based game play. Is that true? Or am I missing something? $10 is a steep price for an Infinity Blade knock off.

      1. metalcasket

        It's actually $6.99. It's $9.99 in NZ.

        1. Taclys

          Ah, I see. Same symbol, got confused. Still, is it just a knock off?

          Prolly should go read the other articles.

      Awesome. I really hope this hits tonight. Everything else just isn't really my style.

    6. eventide

      Infinity Blade 17?

      Yeah...no thanks.

    7. icoker

      how big is the app in terms of file size?

    8. Morgan01

      Graphics look nice, but would like to hear feedback about gameplay. Also, since it's by SE, I have concerns about possible IAPs since their games are mostly over priced compared to most IOS titles.

      Lost me at squirtenix.
