Marvel Project Comet is the internal name for an unannounced Marvel mobile game whose gameplay trailer leaked online this week, first surfacing on Chinese platform Bilibili before spreading to YouTube and X. Multiple gaming outlets have corroborated the footage, which shows a squad-based action RPG starring Wolverine, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange. Marvel has not confirmed anything.
What Leaked, and How We Got Here
A video titled “Marvel’s Comet Project Official Live Trailer” went up on Bilibili on October 2, 2026. Within days it had been re-uploaded to YouTube and shared repeatedly on X, and outlets including Insider Gaming, GamingBible, and Pocket Gamer independently picked it up and treated it as credible leaked footage rather than an official reveal.
This isn’t the first time pieces of the game have surfaced, either. Industry leaker Miller Ross reportedly flagged the project’s existence back in June, and a separate leaker going by MultiverSusie has reportedly shared character models and voice lines over the following months. Pocket Gamer reports that one of the YouTube reuploads of the trailer was taken down on a content claim from Disney — not proof of anything on its own, but exactly the kind of signal you’d expect if this really is unreleased Marvel IP and not an elaborate fake.
The Characters and Story Project Comet Reportedly Features
The leaked trailer reportedly shows Wolverine, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, War Machine, and Elektra in action, with other outlets’ earlier leaks naming additional characters like Juggernaut and Silver Samurai as possibilities for the wider roster. Wolverine in particular has had a rough run in games lately — Insomniac’s Marvel’s Wolverine landed at a middling 78 on Metacritic — so a strong showing in Comet wouldn’t hurt his track record. Combat is described as a mix of basic attacks, cooldown-based special moves, and an ultimate ability per hero — think Marvel Future Fight crossed with Genshin Impact, which is the exact comparison several outlets have landed on independently.
On-screen text in the leak reportedly brands the game a “next-gen mobile ARPG,” built around semi-open Marvel environments and four-player co-op squads. As for the premise, GameRant reports the story is set after the Fantastic Four disappear following a battle with Galactus, which supposedly leaves a power vacuum that lets other heroes — and a new wave of supervillains — take center stage. That’s trailer text and leaker summaries talking, not anything Marvel has put its name to.
Who’s Reportedly Building It, and On What Platforms
Several outlets, citing earlier reporting from Polygon, point to Scopely — the studio behind Marvel Strike Force, Monopoly GO!, and Star Trek Fleet Command — as the developer, though that sourcing is secondhand and Scopely itself hasn’t said a word publicly. Platforms are described as mobile (iOS and Android) and PC, with job listings and leaker chatter suggesting crossplay between them; a handful of outlets float console versions down the line, but that’s speculation layered on top of a leak, not a confirmed plan.
Why This Might Succeed Where Marvel’s Avengers Failed
Here’s the angle that actually matters if Project Comet is real: Marvel’s Avengers died in 2023 largely because Crystal Dynamics tried to bolt live-service loot grinding onto a genre — the single-player-style brawler — that players didn’t want that from. Push Square has made a version of this comparison, noting Project Comet looks like what Avengers was reaching for without the baggage. Worth pushing that a step further: Marvel Rivals already proved the fix isn’t “less monetization,” it’s “match the genre players already showed up for.” Rivals didn’t invent anything new — it just built a hero shooter where hero shooters already had an audience, and NetEase told investors on a February 2025 earnings call that it had crossed 40 million players within about ten weeks of its December 2024 launch. Project Comet is reportedly making the same bet one genre over: gacha ARPGs already have a built-in audience from Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves, so Marvel doesn’t need to convince anyone the format works — it just needs the execution to hold up, which is a much lower bar than Avengers ever cleared.
| Game | Genre | Platforms | Monetization | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Project Comet | Squad-based ARPG (reported) | Mobile & PC reported; console unconfirmed | Reportedly gacha-style; unconfirmed | Leaked, not officially announced |
| Marvel Rivals | Hero shooter | PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S | Free-to-play; battle pass & cosmetics | Live since December 2024 |
| Marvel Snap | Collectible card game | Mobile & PC | Free-to-play; gacha-style card unlocks | Live since October 2022 |
What We Still Don’t Know
No release date has leaked with any real specificity — ignore anything that states one as fact. The same goes for pricing and the exact monetization model; “gacha-style” has come up repeatedly across leaks, but nobody has shown actual shop pricing or currency names. Marvel, Disney, and Scopely have all stayed silent, which is normal for a project this early; studios routinely let leaks sit unaddressed for months before a real announcement, so don’t read the silence as either confirmation or denial.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Project Comet real?
Almost certainly something real leaked — multiple outlets independently verified the trailer’s authenticity, and at least one reupload was taken down on a Disney copyright claim, which is a strong signal it’s genuine Marvel material. But “real leak” isn’t the same as “officially announced”: Marvel and the rumored developer, Scopely, haven’t confirmed the project exists.
Is Project Comet officially confirmed by Marvel?
No. As of this week, neither Marvel nor Disney has issued any statement confirming or denying the game, and Scopely — the studio multiple outlets point to as the developer — hasn’t commented either.
When is Project Comet coming out?
There’s no release date. Nothing in the leaked trailer or the leaker reporting around it points to a release window, and any date you see attached to the game elsewhere is speculation, not a reported fact.
What platforms will Project Comet be on?
Leaks point to mobile (iOS and Android) and PC with crossplay between them. Some outlets have floated console versions as a future possibility, but that’s speculation stacked on top of an unconfirmed leak, not something reported from an actual source.
Who is developing Project Comet?
Several outlets, citing earlier Polygon reporting, name Scopely — the studio behind Marvel Strike Force and Monopoly GO! — as the likely developer. Scopely hasn’t confirmed this publicly.
