COMBAT

Fantastic 4 is an action brawling game, so you need to master all aspects of combat to succeed. Try using different combinations of moves to finish enemies with special maneuvers.

Character Switching

You can switch to other hero characters any time they're available. If a hero character is available, his or her face appears on-screen in the HUD (Heads-Up-Display). Switch to a different hero by pressing the correct direction on the directional buttons.

Combos

Perform combos using sequential presses of the attack buttons. You'll unlock additional extended combos as you progress through the game. Specific combos are necessary to defeat the most challenging enemies.

Grappling and Throwing

Each character has different grappling abilities. Heroes can pick up enemies and objects (the Action button) as they fight their way through the levels, and then throw them for maximum damage!

Explore the limits of each hero to find the enemies and objects that can be picked up. Grappling also initiates Team Combos.

Cosmic Power

Each character has different cosmic powers accessed by pressing the Cosmic button plus another button. Holding down the Cosmic button also gives you a speed and defense boost, but drains your cosmic power bar.

Supers

Each character has a super move accessed by pressing the Cosmic + Jump buttons. These super moves do major damage and become available as you successfully complete three and four-hit combos. The gold "4" icon in the upper left corner of the screen shows when you have supers available.

Targeting

Targeting is initiated by holding the Target button. A targeting reticule appears on the nearest enemy. Switch targets by pressing directions on the right analog stick.

You can also strafe with the left analog stick and dodge with the left analog stick plus the Jump button. Targeting mode is especially good for throwing objects and enemies into other foes, using a hero's long-range attack or homing in on a boss.

Team Combos

Characters can perform special maneuvers with each other for the ultimate finisher on an enemy. To perform a team combo, walk up to a hero that has grappled an enemy.

You can grapple an enemy with one hero, then switch to a second hero. Face the grappling hero and press the Grab button to perform a team combo.

Buddy Buffs

Heroes can use their powers on each other to help in certain combat situations. Hold the Cosmic button plus a direction on the directional buttons. The character corresponding to the direction pressed receives the buddy buff.

You can also call for a buff from your nearest teammate by pressing the direction corresponding to the current hero. Each hero has a different power (either offensive or defensive) they can help with. Practice to find out which ones work better in certain situations.

Lives

Each hero starts with three lives. The green dot in the upper left-hand corner of the screen shows the number of available lives you have. Earn extra lives by completing bonus tasks and/or collecting special power-ups.

UPGRADES

You can upgrade hero moves whenever you have enough points available. Push

Enemies & Characters

Reed Richards™

Infused with cosmic energy, Mr. Fantastic gained extreme malleability, allowing him to reshape his body and stretch his limbs. His natural leadership and brilliant mind are invaluable to the Fantastic 4.

Sue Storm™

The Invisible Woman™ can become invisible and create translucent, nearly impregnable force shields, which she uses for defense, projectiles, and levitation. She is the emotional backbone of the team.

Johnny Storm™

The Human Torch™ can generate and control flame, fly at high speeds, and launch fireballs. He is the youngest member of the team, often acting impulsively but is devastating in long-range combat.

Ben Grimm™

The Thing™ possesses superhuman strength and a tough hide of rock, making him the Fantastic 4's human tank. Despite his permanent transformation, he remains a kidder and can withstand nearly any attack.

Victor Von Doom™ aka Dr. Doom™

Victor Von Doom's transformation gave him metal alloy skin and the ability to create and control electricity. Jealous of Reed, he will stop at nothing to end the Fantastic 4.

Mole Man™

Mole Man may not look threatening, but his legions of underworld creatures constantly threaten the surface world and do his bidding.

Diablo™

Diablo, master of alchemic arts, uses potions to create golems from basic elements to do his bidding. His powerful potions often have limited duration due to flaws.

Dragon Man™

Dragon Man is a flying, fire-breathing menace currently imprisoned in the Vault. What he lacks in intelligence, he makes up for in raw power.

Blastaar™

Originally from the Negative Zone, Blastaar came to Earth to conquer it but is now imprisoned in the Vault. He is a cunning, cruel, and formidable foe.

Annihilus™

Harnessing cosmic power with a control rod, Annihilus has superhuman strength, near-immortality, and superior intelligence. He is dedicated to conquering any being that threatens his insane quest for power.

Puppetmaster™

Phillip Masters™ can control others using objects sculpted from a mystical radioactive clay. He is also the stepfather of Alicia Masters and has vowed to protect her.
