Singapore – Marvel Entertainment and Disney Interactive Media Group (DIMG) today announced that the first social game based on Marvel’s iconic characters, is now live on Facebook.

Called “Marvel: Avengers Alliance”, the game is developed by Playdom, featuring a tactical turn-based combat experience with dozens of familiar Marvel Super Heroes and Super Villains such as Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and Hulk.

Players can train their heroes to unlock unique abilities, and further customize abilities. They can also square off against each other in a player-versus-player combat, challenging their social graph to super-powered showdowns.

In the coming months, “Marvel: Avengers Alliance” will continue to expand with more content releases.  Players can look forward to new missions, storylines, Super Heroes and upgraded abilities.
