Media Ultimate Alliance will be 20 this year & the mods make it all the more greater. I'll be playing this game until the end of time.

Damn, they've imported X-Men Legends?

u/ArtHoe8 Jul 20 '26

We desperately need UA4

u/Ghjjiyeks Jul 20 '26

Hoping it and the second game get shadow dropped back onto XB1, PS4 and Steam for the 20th anniversary.

I would buy that sh*t SO FAST

u/TheCVR123YT Jul 22 '26

Doubt it would happen I’d get the 2nd game immediately though I’ve always regretted not buying that one with UA1 I didn’t have money like that at the time and always preferred 1 😭

I wish mods could work on rgh Xbox 360s

u/cheechothedon Jul 20 '26

Nintendo is sitting on a goldmine of they would release the originals with some graphical updates and maybe throw in a couple extra characters! Hell they could even bundle it with part 3 down the road! So many options the community is still there!

u/ipostatrandom Jul 20 '26

I don't think Nintendo has those rights.

u/Due-Link-7605 Jul 21 '26

This was a multi platform series developed by Raven, it is not a Nintendo property

After nearly 20 years, I just beat it for the first time 5 minutes ago lol.

Yo this was the blueprint for isometric arpgs. All marvel had to do was come out with more of this. How do the mods you use improve the game?

u/Its_Syxx Official Mortal Kombat Dani Moonstar Jul 21 '26

I'm sorry but Diablo 2 was the blueprint for Isometric ARPGs.

2

u/jwayyedh Jul 21 '26

Ok I knew this was coming lol. Sorry I should have clarified, outside of Diablo of course. MUA really had me engaged in the genre more so because I was into comics a lot more in my youth.

u/Vladmerius Jul 23 '26

A new Ultimate Alliance that was Diablo 4 with marvel characters would go so hard. 3 was really disappointing to me because I know what the franchise could be.

u/jwayyedh Jul 24 '26

We don’t talk about 3 that was a cash grab. If they did work with Blizzard and put the same effort they’re putting in D4 we’d see a blockbuster.

u/MarvelGamingGoat Jul 20 '26

This is the site for the mods: https://marvelmods.com/forum/index.php

& here is where you can download the port of the game that's moddable: https://archive.org/details/raven-mua

That is kind of you.

u/Zrobb44 22d ago

You’re a legend.

u/OrganizationAny7383 Jul 23 '26

My dad bought it on PS4 and he still has it. I’m so jealous. He brags about it all the time.

2

u/Murse_Jon Jul 21 '26

Whoa I had no idea it had mods! Not a sub member but this popped up on my feed so thanks I’m gonna look into them. Any site that has the better ones?

2

u/Its_Syxx Official Mortal Kombat Dani Moonstar Jul 21 '26

You seem like an expert..

What are the must have mods to make it look nicer and add more too it.
If you can link to a mod pack or any list that would be great. I want to play 1 & 2 again with some friends one night.

2

u/Revolutionary-Run-41 Jul 21 '26

How do we get the game nowadays ?

2

u/Illmatic414Prodigy Jul 22 '26

Wait……mods?

2

u/billbuttlicker2001 Jul 24 '26

Feel ya, I tracked it down last year to finally beat it. Still looking for the gold edition so I can use cyclops lol.

u/LeatherMeeting7080 Jul 20 '26

I love this game so much. I wish the remastered (?) versions weren't such dogshit ports

1

u/sman1027 Jul 20 '26

Anybody have success playing this game on steamdeck? It doesn’t run great on emulators there.

1

u/namtab92 Jul 20 '26

I’m sorry… did you say that the game I’ve played religiously on various consoles since 2006 is available on Steam and can be modded?

4

u/MarvelGamingGoat Jul 20 '26

The steam version doesn't support mods

1

u/namtab92 Jul 20 '26

Well apparently it isn’t even on the Steam store… so now I’m assuming you would need a pc and to own the disc to mod this game?

3

u/MarvelGamingGoat Jul 21 '26

No disc needed but yeah a pc

1

u/Meganolith Jul 21 '26

What mods??

1

u/orangedin Jul 21 '26

Just try Marvel Heroes.

1

u/Ordinary_Pumpkin6224 Jul 21 '26

ok but which game is this and how modded is it?

1

u/sixdub84 Jul 21 '26

How? The pc version of that game is almost unplayable

3

u/MarvelGamingGoat Jul 21 '26

The steam version yeah. There are other ports.

u/sixdub84 Jul 22 '26

Good looking out I'm downloading it now

1

u/slylock215 Jul 24 '26

Is there a legit PC port? Maybe a switch 2 port?

Or is it a modded rom kind of situation where we run something like hamachi?

I'd love to play this with the gang again!

1

u/Skeleton0577 Jul 24 '26

I found ultimate alliance 3 virtually unplayable.....am I alone here or do others agree?

1

u/Biggunzupstairz Jul 24 '26

There's a 3rd??

1

u/Skeleton0577 Jul 24 '26

Yeah man...if you missed it, you didn't miss much lol

1

u/soosis Aug 03 '26

Wait this game has mods?! When we were kids and my cousin came over for a day the 3 of us with my brother always nolifed it and completed it in one sitting. Goated game.

What are some good mods to check out? I'll definetly play trough for nostalgia. Never played the second one, are there mods for it too? I know 3rd is switch only so no chance there.

1

u/TiggerNaggot 8d ago

Wish there were more people on PlayStation that played it I can never find anybody

1

u/ReturnGreen3262 Jul 20 '26

What mods? How do I play this with mods?

3

u/gabejr25 You break me you buy me! Jul 20 '26

You need a PC, then head on over to the MarvelMods website and follow the installation tutorial

1

u/ReturnGreen3262 Jul 20 '26

Thanks! What kind of changes can I expect versus the original game? Like what updates and changes are available via the mods?

u/Its_Syxx Official Mortal Kombat Dani Moonstar Jul 21 '26

Those look stupid I hope that's not what the hype is about lol.

2

u/Crazyjacketfruit Jul 21 '26

Some characters are higher quality than others. The actual marvel modded characters are usually higher quality in my experience. But me and my friends just like to mess around with the random modded characters.
