History

Thumb
Original Marvel Games logo used until 2024

Established in March 2009, the label handles the licensing of Marvel intellectual properties to video game developers and publishers. After The Walt Disney Company acquisition of Marvel Entertainment later that year,[1] Marvel Games assets were integrated into Disney Interactive, while the division itself remained under Marvel Entertainment.

The Marvel Games branding was revived after Disney discontinued their interactive media business, as a first party developer and publisher by shutting down Disney Interactive Studios, opting to license their intellectual properties for video games instead.[2] Since then, Marvel Games has been involved with publishing and distribution of all Marvel related video games with third parties.
