FYI, this story is more than a year old

The sequel to the best-selling X-Men game ever, this game introduces the epic storyline of an uneasy alliance between the X-Men and the hated Brotherhood in a fight to reclaim Earth from Apocalypse’s grasp. Impressive gameplay enhancements include more than double the superpowers and customisation capabilities as well as the debut of several new playable characters (with rumours of Scarlet Witch and Deadpool being included). Rich detailed graphics will bring over 100 diverse types of enemies into the fray and give you a breathtaking range of exotic and real-world environments from the Madri Temple to Egyptian Pyramids. X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse’s diverse online multiplayer modes enables up to 4 players to engage in a co-op story mode, including the dynamic feature that lets your friends jump into or leave the action at any time! A handheld version with wireless multiplayer support is also in the works, which could push Untold Legends off its perch as best RPG game for the PSP.
