Can I Run Marvel Heroes?
Traveller's Tales released Marvel Heroes in 2013. It is an action adventure game, published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It offers a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. It is localised into 10 languages according to the store listing. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. Its Metacritic score stands at 78. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. Its Steam review count passes 21 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Cloud saves are enabled. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It carries 45 achievements.
