Marvel had also admitted to having many major projects for virtual reality. The Spider-Man Homecoming experience, available for a few days, was finally only a first taste of what the comic giant was preparing.

The game trailer features three different players: a mechanic, an artist and a businessman playing the characters Hulk, Rocket Raccoon from the Guardians of the Galaxy, and Captain Marvel. The three players cooperate from different locations on a map to complete a mission. The gameplay seems to borrow from the genre of the rail shooter. Using the Oculus Touch controllers, players use their powers by throwing their hands forward to defeat vile aliens.
