Trivia[]

  • In n-Space (non-DS) versions, the character select mannequin file data of Iron Fist (also actor costume), Bishop, Cable and Electro are found unused and originally meant to be playable in those versions.
    • Cable’s play-ability could have been similar to Psylocke for being start out playable in non-DS n-Space versions by default, prior becoming one of the DLCs.
      • Cable could have been remained locked during Folds’ invasions in all versions, which should also applied in DLC pack, as well as can only be unlocked in temporarily in Anti-Reg missions. However, this was shown to be an error, as the cutscenes shows Cable is amongst the victim of the Folds.
    • Bishop’s play-ability could have been similar to She-Hulk, due to being only playable on certain n-Space versions while remained NPC in primary Vicarious Visions gameplay version.
    • Electro’s play-ability in this version remained unknown, despite being a boss.
    • Befitting the similar roles they have in in primary Vicarious Visions gameplay version, both Bishop and Cable could have been locked in their respective sides and as a boss on certain mission stages prior being unlocked during Folds’ invasion.
    • Alternate costume was planned to be included in this version as well, but Activision and Marvel rush to release it without modeling alternate costumes.
  • Unlike other MUA games and X-Men Legends series, MUA2’s team slots remained lock in four team members.
  • The overreaching antagonist of the Civil War I, Walter Declum, does not appear in this game. Instead, he is replaced by The Fold.
    • Declum was also responsible for the comic book event of Civil War I, which then came into light, by the time of Heroic Age comic book event.
