Plot
The game begins when the Silver Surfer, herald to Galactus, is knocked out of the sky, with his surfboard shattering into several 'Cosmic Bricks' that fall onto Earth. With these blocks containing immense power, Nick Fury calls upon the heroes of the Marvel universe to retrieve these blocks before they fall into the wrong hands.[3]
Gameplay
Following on from the gameplay style of past Lego titles, players will be able to control over 100 characters from the Marvel Universe, each with their own unique abilities. For example, Spider-Man can swing on his webs and use his spider sense while The Hulk, who is larger than standard minifigures, can throw large objects, as well as shrink down into Bruce Banner to access computers.[4][5] It has been confirmed that Galactus will be the main antagonist in the game.[6] According to game director, Arthur Parsons, and producer, Phil Ring, one of the main settings of Lego Marvel Super Heroes is a Lego version of New York City.[7] The creative team is also interested in including Marvel Comics co-creator Stan Lee as a cameo in some form in the game, but right now they are unsure of how to incorporate it.[8]
