High Moon's Marvel game revealed: Hit Monkey

High Moon finally revealed what Marvel game they are making, and it isn't a real recognizable comic series.

Hit Monkey is like Rocket Raccoon, an animal character that is cool and not stupid like Howard the Duck. Hit Monkey follows the tale of a  Japanese Macaque Monkey that learns deadly traits by watching an unnamed human hitman that was ironically saved by Japanese Macaque Monkeys after a failed assassination. Eventually the Monkey's clan was all wiped out by a group of men and this lone monkey killed all the men using traits it learned from the hitman. After that, the Monkey dedicated its life to killing assassins - under the alias of Hit-Monkey.

 It's not one we thought would be High Moon's secret Marvel game, but given the good story premise and the fame of Marvel, as well as how well High Moon has proven to take care of a licensed franchise, Hit Monkey could become an excellent and well known game in the long run.

Hit Monkey will release sometime in 2013...
