Club Penguin Marvel Superhero Takeover 2013 Roundup

Here’s everything we know about the second ever Marvel Superhero Takeover! It all started nearly a month ago, when I posted about some unreleased games with names that pointed towards the party, even though nothing relating to it was announced. The games in question are Super Hero Bounce and Robot Factory, which will be released at the party tomorrow. The current Club Penguin magazine issue is also superhero related and there’s a superhero in the sky in Club Penguin’s Puffle Hotel commercial.

Interestingly enough, not even 12 hours later Spike Hike made an official announcement that the April party would be the Marvel Superhero Takeover. At the time he did not say much, only saying almost everything will be new – new rooms, heroes, villains, and more.

Then on the second of this month the Club Penguin page on Disney.co.uk received an update listing a little bit more in depth party info, reading the following:

Calling all Marvel fans! From 25 April – 7 May, choose a side at the Marvel Super Hero Takeover on Club Penguin. As a villain, check out the Villain HQ, and build robots to cause chaos. Or gather with your hero friends in the Hero Lab and bring justice to the city. Paid members can suit up in more than 25 Marvel costumes! New Heroes. New Villains. Who will rise to victory? Join the epic battle at the Club Penguin Marvel Super Hero Takeover at clubpenguin.com.

There’s going to be 27 different Marvel characters at the party. Here’s some of them:

Sneak peeks of the Robot Factory game were previewed at the Club Penguin Summit.

Tour Guide also said the following about the party in a blog post Q&A:

Will last year’s Marvel costumes return? They sure will! You’ll have another chance to suit up as all your favorite Marvel characters. We can’t wait to see all your crazy Hulk, Loki, and Black Widow outfits. AND there will be new surprises… Marvel costumes you’ve never seen before.

What kinds of new activities will there be? Fasten your flippers! There’ll be two brand new mini-games, available only during the party. One for heroes. One for villains. So pick your side!

Which Mascot will visit? Just like last year, Aunt Arctic will be there on the ground to cover the clash between good and evil! Stay tuned to the blog for dates and times.

What will non-members be allowed to do? Non-members can join a side to protect or destroy Penguintropolis! And everyone can play the new super hero and super villain games! Flippertastic!

Coming to a close, the crystals are most likely related to the party.

Finally, Aunt Arctic will be at the party.

UPDATE: Whoops. I forgot to mention this. Earlier today on the Portuguese blog a picture of some robots was posted.
