With all the hype around the Deadpool film starring Ryan Reynolds, it isn't a surprise to Activision's Deadpool game resurface. What is a surprise, however, is where the game has shown up – on Steam.
Back in January 2014, Activision sent out a warning that Deadpool and several other Marvel digital games would be removed permanently from the digital stores. Physical copies of the games that were removed from digital retailers were still available after the games were taken down.
Deadpool is back on Steam for $39.99, it hasn't returned to the Xbox Store or PSN though.
Here's a description of the game from Deadpool himself:
There are a few important things I need to say before you crack into my insanely sweet game. (Oof. Here we go again.) I'm a mercenary with an accelerated healing factor. I've been described as unstable, which is just plain coo-coo. (Wait, do sane people say coo-coo?) I'm gonna battle for the safety of humans and mutants. (And even mumans.) Be prepared for just about anything. (Holla!)
Key Features:
-
I made sure to capture all my good sides, so I made my game a third-person action-shooter. (Yep, you get to look at my heinie.)
-
Keep a look out cuz some of my X-Men pals (Whoa, what pals?!) are making an appearance. (Hope you don't mind picking hair out of your tacos.)
-
I'm really good at killing, so I made it a blast stringing together combos, and totally eviscerating my enemies. (Ev-is-cer-a-ting!)
-
I brought my skills and a buttload of my favorite things. Katanas (check), guns (bang!) explosives (boom), duct tape (quack) and of course, yours truly – ME! (Checkmate!)
