When will EA’s Iron Man game be released?

Currently, no release date has been specified for the new Iron Man game. The upcoming Marvel adventure remains in development at Motive, with a team led by Guardians of the Galaxy producer Olivier Proulx and Star Wars: Squadrons director Ian Frazier.

Proulx expressed in a statement that “it’s an honor and privilege to have the opportunity to make a video game based on one of the most iconic Super Heroes in entertainment today.”

“We have a great opportunity to create a new and unique story that we can call our own. Marvel is encouraging us to create something fresh. We have a lot of freedom, which is so engaging for the team.”

In an April 9, 2024, update on the EA blog, Motive GM Patrick Klaus explained that while the company would be diverting members of the Dead Space remake’s creative team to work on the next Battlefield game, Iron Man remains a priority for Motive under Proulx and Frazier’s leadership.

“The team made excellent progress this year, hitting a major internal milestone and laying a robust foundation for the journey ahead,” Klaus said. “Iron Man is an important priority for Motive, and I’m very proud of the work we’ve accomplished so far.” Klaus did not offer any update on a potential release date.

What platforms will EA’s Iron Man game be on?

Though no platforms have been confirmed for the new Marvel title, we expect it to be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S|X and PC. It is unclear whether the game will factor in previous generations upon release.

EA’s Iron Man game gameplay details

EA’s Iron Man game will be a third-person, single-player adventure that promises blistering action in the traditional Marvel manner.

Bill Roseman, the Creative Director and President at Marvel Games, said, “we are thrilled to collaborate with the talented team at Motive Studio to bring their original vision of one of Marvel’s most important, powerful and beloved characters.”

“Their experience delivering both established entertainment worlds and thrilling gameplay — combined with their authentic passion for the armored icon — will fuel our quest to deliver a love letter to a legendary hero in the form of the ultimate Iron Man video game.”

Speaking with GamesIndustry.biz, Roseman also said, “Every decision (the Motive team) are making about their Marvel universe, their Tony Stark, their Iron Man… they’re building it from the ground-up.”

“I don’t want to say what is and isn’t in this game, but for example, there is S.H.I.E.L.D, Hydra, there’s the Daily Bugle, there’s these different countries that exist. These are building blocks that make the Marvel universe. They make it feel like a real Marvel story.”
