Avengers: Battle for Earth has been officially registered by Marvel Characters Inc. The registration shows that a movie tie-in for the game is in the works.
MarkMonitor, a brand protection company, registered the name in the United States on May 3 2012 and the name has also been listed on Ubisoft’s nameservers: nic1.ubisoft.com and nic2.ubisoft.com.
No other information about the game has been released. Perhaps this will be one of the big reveals at E3.

I’m hoping it will be kind of like a Harvest Moon type of game. Y’know, plant some crops as Thor, take Hulk out to milk some cows, that kind of thing. I think that the superhero/farm sim is an underutilized genre that’s just begging for a comeback.
Let’s not get carried away here. The film was great, but a movie tie in is still a movie tie in…
