Polaris and Scarlet Witch Gameplay – Uncanny X-Men Days of Future Past

Polaris is recognizable even in games… food for thought

It’s a shame the game is set up in such a way that you can’t have the sisters working together, but it’s kinda unavoidable given the way mobile titles work. I was very happy when Glitchsoft (now going by Gigataur) added Lorna, it was the entire reason I got the game.

… Though I didn’t get very far. Because it’s only on mobile, and I’m not really a mobile games person. Still, I got it and played it.

Oh I made it till the end and it was enjoyable. Speaking of sisters together, have you try X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse? Let me post an image where you can see Polaris and Scarlet Witch 2gether.

Have you try Polaris Mod for Marvel Ultimate Alliance *PC ONLY* Another interesting game. Here is an example and a link.

There is also a LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Video Game. I think Polaris looks adorable in this one.

Even in Soul Calibur

Plus this one possibly from Street Fighter

Oh Polaris been around in not just one game, but many and all are fun to play.

The X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse one is odd. As far as I’ve always heard, Lorna was originally set to have a big role, but eventually Marvel gave that role to Wanda and relegated Lorna solely to some tube in the background.

Are you sure the first screencap isn’t from preliminary work or a mod? I never played that game myself, so I don’t know.

I never played the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance either. I played the second one, but on console. It was back when discovering Lorna made me excited to get into stuff tied to Marvel, before Marvel decimated that level of interest with their forced retcon on Wanda and Pietro’s parentage. Still, that’s the great thing about PC versions of games, they can be modded by fans to add the things they want when companies fail to deliver.

I was ecstatic when we learned Lorna would finally be officially playable in Lego Marvel Super Heroes. Literally, I bought the game only because she was playable in it, and it’s led to me buying many other Lego games afterward. I’ve played and beat Lego Lord of the Rings, Lego The Hobbit and Lego Pirates of the Caribbean so far, I plan to eventually get Lego Jurassic World, and it’s all thanks to Lorna becoming available in LMSH.

One you’re missing here, though it’s very easy to miss this, is Lorna’s brief appearance in Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Many of us were ecstatic about this, because at the time, Marvel wasn’t including Lorna with her family – and still isn’t, to be honest. Just in a different manner, by kicking Wanda and Pietro out of it.

The Soul Calibur and possibly Street Fighter ones are fanmade using character editors. You likely already know that, but I feel like it’s important to make that clear since some fans might assume they were officially in those games. Still, I absolutely love those cases, because it further shows how much fandom is out there and what could be had if Marvel actually uses Lorna’s full potential.

I’ll be frank, I don’t think we’ll see Lorna officially in any games outside ones tied to Fox films in the near future, if we’re lucky. It has nothing to do with Lorna, it has to do with Marvel’s current treatment of the X-Men franchise. Marvel’s trying to undermine the X-Men franchise right now, refusing to make cartoons and video games with them among other things. Since Lorna’s part of the X-Men, that means if the X-Men don’t get a shot, Lorna doesn’t get one. Same reason Disney and Marvel canceled the Wolverine and the X-Men cartoon, despite its success and having future seasons already worked out.

I mean, I’d actually play Marvel Heroes if Lorna was playable in it, and members of the team behind it have repeatedly said they’d like to provide a playable Lorna. They just haven’t been allowed to do so.

The good news is, I think Lorna will get to make a big comeback in video games and other media about a decade or two from now, when new people at Marvel see their current treatment of X-Men only hurt their goals and try to reverse course.
