Well, it seems the sequel to everyone's favorite comic book heroes-meets-Diablo mashup, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, will be coming out in 2008. Via Joystiq, there has recently been some clarity issues as to when Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 will be released. First it was revealed that the game was pushed back to 2009. However, Activision has clarified things and has released a statement saying that both Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Spiderman Web of Shadows will both be coming out in 2008.
4-player co-op fans/superhero enthusiasts can let out a collective sigh of relief, as (good) 4-player co-op superhero games are the unicorn of the video game world. As this superhero/co-op nerd can attest to, the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance was a blast (in fact as of writing this, I am deep into playing it, with my hardcore team of Deadpool, Dr. Strange, Spiderman, and Iron Man) and allowed for some seriously fun 4-player action. Here's hoping that the sequel will continue the tradition that the original has started.

I think itīs time they make this franchise in an open-ended environment. I mean... X-men Legends 1 and 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance are all based on closed environments, so players are tied to the screen limit. They should make it open-ended like Spider-Man games.
Also, they sould end with mos of that BUFFING powers. Most of them doesnīt make any sense.
This is the best news of the year. My wife will game again.

This is great news! My 6 year old was just asking me when the game was supposed to come out, and when I told him next year, he got all down in the dumps. We had a ball with the first and look forward to the sequel!
