Deadpool (video game)

Deadpool is an action-adventure video game based on the Marvel Comics antihero of the same name. It was developed by High Moon Studios and published by Activision for PlayStation 3, Windows, and Xbox 360 in June 2013. Written by Daniel Way, the game's story follows Deadpool as he joins forces with Cable and the X-Men in order to thwart Mister Sinister's latest scheme, getting into numerous comedic adventures along the way. Similarly to other media featuring the character, the game includes self-referential humor and numerous fourth wall breaks. Upon release, the game received mixed reviews, being praised for its humor and plot elements while critiqued for deficiencies in its gameplay. Deadpool, along with most other games published by Activision that had used the Marvel license, was de-listed and removed from all digital storefronts in 2014. The game was re-released on November 18, 2015 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam to coincide with the release of the 2016 film based on the character and included all original DLC. On November 16, 2017, the game was once again removed from digital storefronts due to licensing issues.
