A Daredevil video game was once being made but got canceled in 2004.
A long-lost video game featuring the Marvel superhero Daredevil has finally been released after being canceled almost 20 years ago. Back before we had games like Marvel's Spider-Man, Marvel's Avengers, and Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, there were more Marvel video games around. Some of these games were linked to movies, while others had their own unique stories. Now, we've discovered a Daredevil game of the latter type, giving fans a peek at what might have been.
An in-depth look at an unreleased game called Daredevil: The Man Without Fear has been shared by Hidden Palace. This game was in development for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox by a studio called 5,000 Ft. It was intended to be a third-person action game inspired by Frank Miller's Daredevil comics.
In the game, players would have been able to use various special abilities that matched Daredevil's character, like a power to see a "Shadow World" representing his heightened senses. The game's story was based on the "Elektra Lives Again" comic storyline from Marvel, and the main villain Daredevil would have faced off against was Kingpin.
Daredevil: The Man Without Fear was canceled because Marvel didn't agree with the changes made during its development. As the project evolved, some developers left, and eventually, it was dropped. Luckily, prototypes of the game are now online thanks to an anonymous developer who used to work on it.
Possibility of Daredevil Showing Up in Marvel's Spider-Man 2
Surprisingly, there's talk about a new Daredevil project in the works, and it's happening around the same time people are speculating about Daredevil appearing in Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Since Spider-Man 2 came out a few weeks ago, players have found some hints that suggest Daredevil might be involved in the game. When the game's director, Bryan Intihar, was asked about it, he didn't give much away and just said it was an interesting question.
It looks like Insomniac Games might be working on extra stuff for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, possibly involving Daredevil. Right now, they haven't officially said there will be any extra content for the game, but they haven't said there won't be either. We'll have to wait and see if they make extra stuff, but if they do, it's possible Daredevil could be part of it.
