Enjoy both trailers and bios here, as the game will be out on December 6, 2024.
Squirrel Girl
Despite being loved and surrounded by her BFFFS (Best Furry Friends Forever), Doreen Green had always questioned the root of her powers. With time, she embraced her Squirrel-like abilities, no matter their origin, and set her heart on becoming the best superhero there is. With her mammalian powers and ability to communicate with squirrels, Doreen Green takes down the toughest opponents as the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. With her unrivaled agility, lightning-fast reflexes, and acorn bombs, she's ready to help her friends with a bucktooth smile on her face!
Iron Fist
Once just another face in a sea of millions, Lin Lie was gifted an ancient and divine weapon, the Sword of Fu Xi, wielding the power to defeat demons and mystical forces. Pushed to his limits and at the edge of death, Lin Lie was saved by the ancient dragon Shou-Lao the Undying. With his sword now shattered, he was blessed by Shou-Lao's powerful Chi, transforming him into the Immortal Iron Fist. As Iron Fist embraced his new role as the protector of K'un-Lun, he made it his duty to protect the mystical realms in his Collapsing Timeline. Focusing his Chi, he's able to amplify his iron fist to reach unimaginable strength, giving him the power to take on anyone who gets in his way
