EA Confirms At Least Three Marvel Games Despite Panther Cancelation

EA has confirmed its ongoing partnership with Marvel despite the cancellation of the Black Panther game. The publisher announced it still has at least three Marvel games in development, including an Iron Man title by EA Motive. EA's focus remains on significant growth opportunities, and the cancellation of Black Panther is part of a larger strategy to streamline operations, which has included recent layoffs. EA reassured fans that the relationship with Marvel is strong and that Iron Man's development is on track. This decision, however, raises concerns about the future of EA's licensed IP projects, especially following multiple cancellations throughout the year.

EA confirmed that it is still working on at least three Marvel games, including Iron Man, despite cancelling the Black Panther project. The company's commitment to its partnership with Marvel remains intact.

Black Panther was originally announced in 2023 but has since faced a series of challenges, leading to its cancellation in 2025. This game was intended to explore the rich narrative and vibrant world of Wakanda, but EA's broader strategy shift and operational restructuring ultimately resulted in its discontinuation. Meanwhile, Skydance Games is also developing a separate Black Panther project titled Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra, which has been delayed to 2026, indicating that the franchise still holds significant potential outside of EA's purview.
