Nintendo Switch is getting a heavy-hitting exclusive in 2019.
On Thursday night at the Game Awards in Los Angeles, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order was announced as a Switch exclusive, and this nifty trailer was released.
MUA3 BO will be out in 2019, though a specific month wasn’t shared, however, the actual gameplay in the trailer was great to see. The Marvel Ultimate Alliance series is a great fit for the Switch, but it’s also the kind of game that will attract owners of other consoles.
It’s been 10 years since the last MUA game. In this version, you are charged with assembling your best squad as you choose from members of The Avengers, X-Men, Guardians of the Galaxy and even more. There were so many superheroes and villains on display, it sent my comic nerd into overdrive.

Things look promising in the trailer, for whatever that’s worth. We’ll just have to wait for more revealing gameplay, additional information about modes and other options.
