The GDC presentation offers a glimmer of hope for fans eagerly awaiting updates on Iron Man. Announced in 2022, the game has remained largely shrouded in mystery, fueling speculation about its potential cancellation. However, EA Motive's participation in GDC confirms ongoing development. The conference runs from March 17th to 21st, 2025, and there's a possibility of gameplay footage or new details being revealed during the demonstration of this new technology.
Currently, Iron Man is known to be a single-player RPG set in an open world, powered by Unreal Engine 5. EA Motive is expected to leverage its experience with Anthem's flight system in the development of Iron Man's aerial mechanics.
