Asian-inspired Marvel superheroes to debut on Marvel Future Fight

At the recent Thailand Game Show, Netmarble, the Korean mobile game developer of Marvel: Future Fight announced the introduction of the superteam of four new exclusive Marvel heroes that will be coming to the mobile game.

This is not the first time that Marvel: Future Fight has introduced original heroes outside of Marvel's comics or movies.

However, what makes it noteworthy is that these new original heroes will be hailing from Asia.

Based on the four mythological beasts of Chinese mythology, the Asian inspired Superteam, Warriors of the Sky, will introduce the characters War Tiger, Blue Dragon, Sun Bird and Shadow Shell - who are from Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Taiwan respectively.
