(Images via Insomniac Games & WB Games Montréal) Superhero games from Marvel and DC haven't been very long-lasting in their respective industries as they have been in the movie business. Despite the fact that there have been some excellent films over the past couple of decades, the genre took off in the late 2000s and the early 2010s. These are the top 10 modern superhero games that have been released over the past two console generations and PC, even if their release schedule is more infrequent than that of the original IPs. The remastered modern classics and fresh mainstream hits are among the titles available.

The protagonist of the video game is named Kat, an amnesiac with psychic abilities who can control how gravity affects her. Kat uses these abilities to protect her hometown of Hekseville, making for a brilliantly unique action-adventure experience.

Gravity Rush is available on PS4 in its Remastered form and is compatible with contemporary hardware. Some fans are hoping that it will be included in the next PS Plus Extra subscription tier since it offers a good chance for a second shot. 2 Injustice Gods Among Us - Ultimate Edition Do you have what it takes to defeat an all-out-of-control superman? (Image via NetherRealms Studios) The first Injustice game offered a compelling Elseworlds interpretation of the adored DC Comics pantheon of heroes before the cliche of the legendary superhero's dictatorial fall from grace got overused. Injustice: Gods Among Us, a fighting superhero game created by NetherRealm Studios (well known for the Mortal Kombat series), was an exceptional instance of a game that was both mechanically complex and had a compelling single-player narrative.

As a result, Batman and other heroes led a revolt against him. The game is accessible on PC, and the Ultimate Edition is also available on PS4 and Xbox One. 3 Batman The Enemy Within I am the Dark Knight (Image via Telltale Games) A plethora of mythos has developed around The Dark Knight as he has become one of the most well-known and adored superheroes in pop culture. However, Telltale Games used the opportunity to subvert the conventional canon in their Batman point-and-click adventures.

It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. 4 Lego Marvel Super Heroes Relive the memory as Iron man, but in LEGO (Image via Traveller's Tales) Video games based on the Traveller's Tales Lego series are the greatest options for fans seeking a more laid-back and campy superhero game adventure. The top pick is the first Lego Marvel Super Heroes. The game takes the formula and applies it to an open-world scenario. It has received positive reviews from critics for its large availability of playable characters, its gameplay, and the variety of its missions.

Note: Fans should also take advantage of the chance to play Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, one of this month's top video games, as TT (Traveller's Tales) is generally consistent with their quality. 5 Gravity Rush 2 defy gravity with stunning visuals and story (Image via Japan Studios) Gravity Rush 2 had the chance to expand the IP's muscles with more contemporary advancements, even though the creator, Japan Studios, and the department that handled both titles were regrettably disbanded. It garnered a more positive critical response as it expanded on the original's already great foundations. グラビティデイズ2(実況)の魅力を広め隊拡散[email protected]フォロバ100(一部例外)@GRAVITYDAZE2botGravity Rush 2 Live Action Tráiler - Made in Japan youtu.be/tgky0MmxSqk#YouTube#相互フォロー#フォロバ100#GRAVITYDAZE2#グラビティデイズ2#ゲーム好きと繋がりたい#RTした人全員フォローする#いいねした人全員フォローする11Gravity Rush 2 Live Action Tráiler - Made in Japan youtu.be/tgky0MmxSqk#YouTube#相互フォロー#フォロバ100#GRAVITYDAZE2#グラビティデイズ2#ゲーム好きと繋がりたい#RTした人全員フォローする#いいねした人全員フォローする The story was even more fascinating and cohesive, with Kat's fleshed-out character development once again being a standout. Similarly, the title got enhanced in terms of gameplay by broadening her gravity-defying abilities. Gravity Rush 2 is available for players on PS4. 6 Guardians Of The Galaxy Get to fill the shoes of Star Lord of the Guardians of the Galaxy and take down foes (Image via Eidos-Montréal With regard to their superhero gaming approach, Square Enix has recently lost some of the support of their fan base, and the 2020 Avengers game was an example of that. On the other hand, Guardians of the Galaxy is a pleasantly straightforward single-player action-adventure game, rather than a short and microtransaction-filled game as a service.

The action was excellent and enjoyable, and it featured a well-written plot that presented sympathetic versions of these heroes who stood apart from their MCU equivalents. Xbox One, Xbox Series XS, PS4, PS5, PC, and Switch support Guardians of the Galaxy. 7 Spider-Man Miles Morales Swing through New York with vigor and vitality and take down bad guys as your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man (Image via Insomniac Games) Spider-Man: Miles Morales, a spin-off sequel to Insomniac's 2018 smash blockbuster, was published to help welcome the PS5 generation.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales is available on PS4 and PS5 and will be coming to PC in November 2022. 8 Batman Arkham Knight "I am the vengeance, I am the Knight, I am Batman." (Image via Rocksteady Games) Like legendary filmmaker Christopher Nolan did with The Dark Knight Trilogy, Rocksteady revitalized the Batman IP in the contemporary superhero game. It garnered a lot of positive reviews, despite the fact that it didn't quite reach the rapturous acclaim of City or Asylum.

Similarly, it offered improved free-flow and stealth fighting, a satisfying emotional conclusion to Rocksteady's acclaimed Arkham trilogy, and a psychologically exciting representation of Batman and the Joker's twisted interaction. Arkham Knight is accessible on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. 9 Injustice 2 Find out who your strongest adversary is by taking down the best of the best (Image via NetherRealm Studios) NetherRealm's Injustice 2 is built on the popularity of the first game. From the gameplay aspect, the superhero game introduces minor but significant changes to streamline battles, such as the RPG-esque Gear System. Similarly, it does an outstanding job of providing another interesting Elseworlds DC story while still being user-friendly for newbies in the fighting genre.

The title is now available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. 10 Spider-Man Swing, jump, web up enemies, and take down bad guys of New York before it is too late (image via Insomniac Games) The opportunity to establish the most well-known personal superhero game in the world as a PlayStation pillar was seized by Sony and Insomniac. The acclaimed Spider-Man game was released in 2018, giving the character a modern triple-A spin in gaming. Along with the aforementioned Miles Morales, the title possibly offers the most thrilling web-swinging gameplay in a Spider-Man game.
