Bandai Namco Games began streaming a gameplay demo on for Marvel Disk Wars: Avengers Ultimate Heroes Nintendo 3DS game on Monday. The video features Iron Man and Spider-Man in battle.
The company also began streaming a 30-second trailer earlier this month:
The game is slated for release on November 13 in Japan.
The game will feature a story, gallery and "challenge" mode, including survival, free battle, and communication battle. The challenge mode offers 13 playable characters: Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Hulk, Wasp, Spider-Man, Loki, M.O.D.O.K., Tiger Shark, Abomination, Graviton, Red Skull and Baron Zemo.
Toei Animation is producing Marvel Disk Wars: The Avengers, Marvel's first television anime series for Japanese boys, for Walt Disney Japan to air throughout Japan. Bandai is responsible for turning the characters into merchandising. The series is aimed at boys ages 6-12, and it premiered in April.
The series started an X-Men arc in July. T.M. Revolution also joined the cast in the spring as Silver Samurai, a major villain who ushers Japan into darkness. Characters from Guardians of the Galaxy also made an appearance in September.
In the anime, portable capturing devices known as "DISKs" were developed to capture evil villains. However, thanks to Loki's machinations, both villains and heroes are sealed up in these Disks and scattered around the world. Amid the chaos, five youths obtained the power to restore these DISK-sealed heroes through a program called "Biocode." These youths received five DISKs that Spider-Man, who narrowly escaped being sealed himself, retrieved. Thus, these five can restore Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and Wasp — the Avengers.
