About the game
What you do in a play session
Prepare for the ultimate cosmic threat! In Marvel United: The Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos is closer than ever to achieving absolute power. He's not alone; the Black Order is scattered across the universe, collecting the Infinity Stones for their master's Gauntlet. This epic game mode transforms Marvel United into a campaign of up to four games, where the mission is to stop Thanos at all costs. In the first three battles, the focus is on quickly defeating the Children of Thanos to prevent more Stones from falling into the wrong hands. But don't forget to save some energy and utilize the power-ups you unlock, as they will be crucial for the final confrontation. If you manage to overcome the initial challenges, the fight will be against the Mad Titan himself, now supercharged by the power of the Stones he has managed to gather. The Heroes' unity will be paramount, and the smart use of abilities and power-ups will be the only chance to save the universe from destruction. It's a race against time and one of Marvel's most formidable villains, demanding coordination and strategy to emerge victorious. Get ready for a challenge worthy of an intergalactic saga!
