This action-role playing game allows gamers to create Super Hero dream teams featuring X-Men and classic Brotherhood villains as they unite to overcome the ultimate evil - Apocalypse - and prevent one of the most devastating attacks ever against mankind.

"X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse is sure to please X-Men fans everywhere with an original and suspense-filled storyline that teams up the X- Men with the Brotherhood villains for the first time ever," said Will Kassoy, vice president of global brand management, Activision, Inc.

"Marvel couldn't be more pleased with this latest installment in the X-Men Legends franchise," said Ames Kirshen, Vice President of Interactiv, Marvel Entertainment, Inc. "With a truly epic X-Men story, a ton of new playable characters, larger gameplay environments, increased customization features and most importantly the addition of online play, this truly is the deepest X-Men game ever."

In X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse, players create, customize and control teams of four mutants from 16 X-Men and classic Brotherhood villains from the Marvel Universe. With the X-Men and Brotherhood fighting side-by-side for the first time, players can switch between teammates as they overcome obstacles, solve puzzles and defeat 100 types of enemies including Lady Deathstrike and the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse.

X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse challenges players to explore destructible environments set in classic X-Men locations like Genosha and the Infinite Factory, and exotic worldly locales like Egypt and the Savage Lands in both single player and, online multiplayer action including six multiplayer skirmish modes.
