Marvel’s upcoming game, 1943: Rise of Hydra, is generating significant buzz. It places players in the roles of Captain America and Black Panther during World War II. They form an unlikely alliance to combat the Nazi threat. Developed by Skydance and helmed by Amy Hennig, known for her work on the Uncharted and Legacy of Kain series, expectations are high.

A WWII Setting Unlike Any Other Marvel Game

Unlike previous Marvel AAA games set in the present, 1943: Rise of Hydra delves into the past. Hennig described the game’s inspiration as classic WWII action-adventure films. Think « men on a mission » stories with Nazis as the primary antagonists. The goal is to recreate the experience of watching a thrilling Marvel movie or TV show, but with player control over the action.

This historical setting offers a fresh perspective on familiar characters. It allows for exploration of themes relevant to the era, such as global conflict, alliances, and the fight against tyranny. This departure from the present day promises a unique Marvel gaming experience.

Wakanda’s Role in the Global Conflict

1943: Rise of Hydra is a « world travel story. » It takes players to various locations, including occupied Paris and Wakanda. Wakanda, typically isolated and protected by a dense jungle, finds itself drawn into the war. Hennig explained that despite their non-interventionist stance, the Wakandans must protect their interests as the world shrinks.

This involvement raises interesting questions. How will Wakanda’s advanced technology and culture interact with the realities of WWII? How will their decision to engage affect their future? Players will explore these themes through the perspectives of Azzuri (Black Panther) and Steve Rogers (Captain America), along with their key allies: Wakandan spy Nanali and Howling Commando Gabe Jones. All four characters will be playable, offering diverse gameplay experiences.

The Alliance of Captain America and Black Panther

The game explores the dynamic between Captain America and Black Panther. Steve Rogers is portrayed as a relatively inexperienced soldier, while Azzuri is more seasoned and mature. The game will delve into their initial meeting and the shared concerns that unite them.

The core message resonates with many Marvel stories: good people must work together to overcome evil. Division leads to failure. This theme of unity is particularly relevant in a WWII setting, where global cooperation was essential to defeating the Axis powers. 1943: Rise of Hydra promises an action-packed adventure with a powerful message about the importance of collaboration in the face of adversity.
