    Amazing VR game.. Picked it up last week and played most of the objectives. Like any Marvel release, this is a super polished game and it runs all nice and smooth on my machine. The amount of content and quality is amazing for this price. I mostly play as Crystal, DrStrange and Iceman.. but all characters have unique attacks and combos. Playing multiplayer and help grinding is the best..Amazing VR game.. Picked it up last week and played most of the objectives.

    Marvel Powers United (MPU) has a lot of great things going for it! First of all, there are 18 heroes to choose from and instead of just getting their hands in VR you get their whole bodies. The first time I tried the Hulk I was shocked at my size compared to the other players in my group. I actually laughed out loud as I realized that he truly is a pretty big guy compared to the otherMarvel Powers United (MPU) has a lot of great things going for it!

I actually laughed out loud as I realized that he truly is a pretty big guy compared to the other characters. Second of all, although some of the heroes may play the same it does help with learning the game and keep in mind that many of them have similar powers. For example: Rocket and Star Lord both shoot guns and can hover, while Wolverine and Black Panther have claws and melee attacks. And yet, even if they may play the same there is something truly incredible about being able to become your favorite Marvel Super Hero. And finally, although people complain about the missions being repetitive, because you basically do the same things each time in different maps, I would like to point out that most multiplayer games do the same thing if you consider Death Match, Team death match, Capture the Flag, Battle Royale etc.....What makes MPU unique is that you get to work together with other players and it does a great job of making you feel like you are actually a team of Super Heroes trying to save the day! Even if you play the same map, with the same objectives, it can be a whole different experience depending on the people you play with! In conclusion, the game is extremely fun to play, the graphics are great, there is a ton of content to unlock, and I have heard that future DLC is going to be free. If you enjoy comics and have always dreamed of becoming your favorite superhero, I highly recommend you check this awesome game out! Expand

    Marvel Powers United VR's high production value can't keep secret the game's true identity: unabashed wave shooting mechanics, bland enemies, and arcade gameplay that's more about points than fun or skill. If you were hoping that Powers United would make you feel like your favorite superhero, you'll be disappointed that the game offers no story, character development/progression, or meaningful exploration of the rich Marvel universe, and instead hinges around collecting outfits, poses, and props.

    The huge number of playable characters may suggest a big adventure is concealed in Marvel Powers United VR. Well, not really. But it's still worth your time, especially if you want to play with all your friends in VR.

    In spite of a very classical structure and a certain underlying redundancy, in short, we perceive that Marvel Powers United VR has been realized with passion and maximum respect for the original works.
