Marvel Pinball: Doctor Strange Trailer

Posted on by

The greatest powers of the occult, both from our own world and the darkest dimensions in existence, are combining their forces to take over Earth. And only one man can stop them — Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme! With the help of the beautiful Clea and his faithful servant Wong, the Master of the Mystic Arts faces his greatest challenge ever in Doctor Strange pinball, the newest addition to the Marvel Pinball library.

Strange’s rival sorcerer Baron Mordo has called upon the demonic forces of the Dread Dormammu and the Fear Lord, Nightmare, all part of his plot to assume the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme for himself. Meanwhile, Shuma-Gorath, the Lord of Chaos, resides in the background with nefarious plans of his own…

Numerous voiceover lines and situations were adapted straight from 50 years of Doctor Strange comic books for this table, including the classic first two issues of Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme, wherein Dormammu threatened our dimension by overtaking Strange in his own body. Only with carefully cast spells (i.e., deadeye shots from you, the player) does Strange hope to stand a chance against inconceivable odds.

Doctor Strange will be available for download in December 2013 on a variety of platforms including Xbox LIVE Arcade, Steam, PlaySation Network, iOS, Google Play, Windows 8, OSX, Kindle Fire and the Wii U eShop.

I love pinball, though still haven’t gotten into digital pinball, but Captain America is getting the table treatment for Marvel Pinball and Pinball FX2.  Available June 28 on the Playstation Network and June 29 on Xbox Live, this looks cool enough I might give it a try.

Also, does this video pretty much confirm to expect the Cosmic Cube in the upcoming movie, Captain America: First Avenger?  That sure looks like it floating next to Cap.
