It's weird the embargo is ending so late in the day.

IGN - 7.8
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order is a fun, if fairly simple, comic book beat-em-up that's enjoyable alone or with friends alike.

Eurogamer
With this surprise Switch exclusive, Nintendo has taken an old-school approach - for better and for worse.

Game Informer - 7/10
The bland level designs and baffling character progression hold the action back and make it somewhat of a slog

Gamespot - 8/10
The long-dormant series returns in a superhero caper that excels because of its diversity and synergized action.

Nintendo Life - 8/10
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order isn't a groundbreaking, narrative-heavy reinterpretation of the comic characters you know and love, but then again neither were the first two games. In that regard, it's a very faithful sequel that mines the vast roster of characters from the comics while including plenty of nods to the current state of the more modern Marvel Cinematic Universe. While it doesn't do anything particularly new or outstanding, it embraces the brainless fun of its brawler combat with gusto, and it's at its absolute best when played with a team of player-controlled supers.

US Gamer - 3.5/5
The Ultimate Alliance comes roaring back with this Nintendo Switch exclusive. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 pulls inspiration for Marvel comics, movies, TV, and more to create an homage to the brand's long history. Unfortunately, some camera issues and general readability mar the overall experience, and the alternate costumes fall short of the Ultimate Alliance standard. Despite that, this is a great couch co-op adventure with all your Marvel favorites.

Destructoid - 7/10
There's plenty of room for improvement, but I had fun playing through Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3. With the Marvel IP less muddled and the simplicity of this deal between Marvel and Nintendo, I'd love to see another with enhancements in tow.

I love me my handheld play, but I dunno handheld performance sounds rough. May have to dock this one.

It's probably because of Comic Con
