Play X-Men - Destiny (EU) Online

X-Men: Destiny for the Nintendo DS came out in 2011, published by Activision. It was one of those handheld tie-ins that tried to do something a little different on the system, letting you step into the shoes of a new mutant during a pretty chaotic time for the X-Men universe. The DS was still going strong then, and this was part of that wave of comic book games that didn't always get a lot of attention but offered a unique take for fans.

You create your own mutant character, choosing from a few power sets like density control or energy projection, and then jump into a story where you decide to side with the X-Men or the Brotherhood. Gameplay is a mix of side-scrolling beat 'em up action and light exploration, with touch screen inputs used for special attacks and interactive elements. You fight through waves of enemies, upgrade your abilities, and make dialogue choices that influence how certain characters react to you. The pacing is fairly straightforward, though some sections can feel repetitive. It’s a simple but satisfying experience if you enjoy customizing a hero and mashing through enemies with superpowers.
