Xbox Reportedly Working On Licensing Old Activision Marvel Games

According to a new report, Xbox is working with Marvel to relicense Deadpool and Marvel Ultimate Alliance games.

Speaking during the Xbox Era Podcast, Nick Baker stated that he heard Microsoft is working on relicensing the games. While they are quite old, Deadpool was released for the Xbox One and can be played on the current generation.

However, since Activision lost the rights several years ago, none of its Marvel games are currently available for purchase. Xbox seems to be attempting to deal with this problem.

Pretty much tells me they are not spending money to make new games. It's likr a few thousand bucks to renew a license.

If true, I hope they get license for the Xbox 360 game X-Men Origins: Wolverine as it's the only old licensed game that I want to play.

They shouldn't be able to get any games renewed with X-Men characters due to the licensing deal Disney has with Sony.

When out of ideas. Just do marvel.

Considering Sony appears to have X-Men licence, I doubt this can happen.

They’re going to try anything to mimic Sony’s powerful Marvel relationship. Not going to work.

Sony pretty much has all X-Men and Spider-Man characters exclusive.

I thought their deal was for future games through 2035? Don't see why it would affect an already existing old Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 game especially if the game gets re-released for PlayStation which Microsoft would probably do.
