The video game lovers of "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance" franchise have been waiting for a long time for the release of ''Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3.'' Raven Software is taking longer than expected and the tentative release date as of now is 2017.

The gamers are hoping that along with PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox and Xbox 360, this ambitious game should be released on smartphones and tablets too. YHM and Kpopstarz has kept the readers updated about any latest developments in this filed. ''Some fans even call the free-to-play MMO Marvel Heroes a successor to the Ultimate Alliance games. Though it had a rocky beginning upon its release in 2013, it's apparently undergone several drastic improvements. Apparently, it's pretty decent'' confirmed the article on Inverse.

''Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2'' was released in 2009. ''I don't even think it would take that much of an overhaul to the existing gameplay. The previous games in the series had a very Diablo-esque feel to them that with a little updating would work very well today'' the writer for the article on gamesided mentioned.

The writer echoed the mass sentiment of the gamers and mentioned ''I want a third Ultimate Alliance to let me explore the new post-Secret Wars Marvel Universe. I want to play a new team with Spider-Gwen, Kamala Khan, Ghost Rider, and Jessica Jones and see what the hell happens. Sure, it may not include the Fantastic Four or most of the X-Men, but hey, Totally Awesome Hulk! Silk! Jane Foster Thor!''

So what can the gamers expect now since Marvel has partnered with Telltale Games for the release of this game? ''Telltale Games is an independent digital publisher best known for their episodic gaming release and digital distribution.
