Description:

We've all seen the gritty, grown up takes on Marvel's superheroes in the movies, but's not forget that comics aren't just for grown-ups. The Marvel Super Hero Squad cartoon has the younger audience squarely in its sites, with wholesome heroic family fun being served up with a knowing grin. Following in that tradition, Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet throws some of your favourite heroes against some decidedly diabolical dudes.

Namely, players will have to hero up against the likes of Thanos, Doctor Doom and Loki if they want to find the missing Infinity Stones and stop the universe sliding into a decidedly sorry state.

There are some brand spanking new environments to battle through, with Super Hero City, Olympus and other Super Hero Squad environments from the TV series to feel the might of your powers.

You'll also be able to have a good old-fashioned Team Up! Get up to three friends involved, pick your favourite heroes, and form a squad to collect rare objects and unlock challenge mode levels and costumes. Heroes include the likes of Wolverine, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Spider-Man!

If you want even MORE to go at, complete heroic feats (key objectives to you and me) in order to unlock additional levels and outfits!
