A short teaser film for the upcoming Captain America and Black Panther game from Skydance and Marvel first revealed their partnership, exhibiting a realistic art style and cinematic presentation symbolic of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The teaser showed the two well-known heroes teaming up to fight Hydra’s evil forces in Wakanda and Paris against the backdrop of World War 2. Interestingly, T’Challa’s grandpa Azzuri the Wise becomes the Black Panther, while Steve Rogers becomes Captain America. Two other playable characters—Gabriel Jones, a Wakandan spy, and Nanli, a member of Captain America’s Howling Commandos—were subsequently announced. 

The title that was revealed, “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra,” makes sense considering that the game takes place during World War II and that Hydra is the main opponent.

Kurakasis, a reliable leaker on Twitter, revealed information on the new Captain America and Black Panther game, including its title, “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra.” Kurakasis has a track record of releasing accurate material before official announcements; among other games, he has leaked data about the Metro VR releases, Bethesda’s Indiana Jones game, Sega’s Sonic x Shadow Generations remaster, and others. Fans speculated about a Marvel game set in the 1940s when Kurakasis teased it in a teaser released a few hours before the announcement. The game’s title and the key art for Marvel and Skydance’s future release were then revealed.

Although a specific year was not mentioned in the first teaser trailer for Marvel’s Black Panther and Captain America crossover, the idea fits the suggested period. Gamers, however, have criticized the game’s supposed title, “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra,” saying it is uninspired and doesn’t adequately convey the spirit of the Marvel characters. The title, according to critics, would not appeal to casual players as much and might be less understandable than games with simpler titles like Insomniac’s “Marvel’s Spider-Man” or “Marvel’s Midnight Suns.” Alternatively, the game may be called “Black Panther x Captain America,” which would make it obvious that it is a crossover title. Another suggestion has been to name the game after the Howling Commandos.

It may be difficult to summarize the idea into a title that includes both Black Panther and Captain America; as a result, a shorter title like “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra” may end up being used. Fans have been waiting impatiently for additional information about this new Marvel game since its initial reveal in September 2022, but not much has been revealed. If this leak is accurate, it is one of the first bits of knowledge fans have about the game.
