There are a handful of Marvel video games in development right now at various studios, but the next one might be a game people still know shockingly little about. It’s called Project Comet, and even though a trailer for the game leaked a while ago, for some reason it’s currently going viral on social media.
One look at the trailer and you might think you’re watching a reveal for the next season of Marvel Rivals. You’ll be convinced of it as the game’s heroes start showing up.

Not only is this not a trailer for the next season of Marvel Rivals, but outside of being another Marvel game, it has no ties to the NetEase hero shooter whatsoever. Project Comet is being developed by Scopely, the mobile gaming behemoth that now owns Pokemon Go and is already in bed with Marvel, having developed Marvel Strike Force.
