Item Description

The first two Mutant Academy games kept the X-Men locked to a flat fighting plane. Next Dimension breaks them out into fully 3D arenas, and the difference is obvious within a single round: land a heavy enough hit and your opponent goes crashing into a different section of the stage, so a fight that starts in one corner of the X-Mansion can end somewhere else entirely. Exakt Entertainment built this third entry, and it plays like a comic-book splash page come to life.

The roster is the series' biggest yet, bringing back nearly everyone from Mutant Academy 2 and adding new faces. Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Gambit, Rogue, Nightcrawler and Phoenix line up against Magneto, Juggernaut, Sabretooth, Mystique and Toad, with Phoenix's darker side and other deep cuts waiting to be unlocked. The combo system leans into air juggles and launchers, and every character carries a set of meter-powered super moves, from projectiles and attack throws to signature mutant powers, so a well-timed super can swing a round in a heartbeat.

Story mode is the surprise. Loosely inspired by the Operation: Zero Tolerance comic arc, it follows the Prime Sentinel Bastion as he escapes S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, kidnaps Forge to pull weapon designs from his mind and builds a device that can strip mutants of their powers, a threat big enough to force the X-Men and the Brotherhood into an uneasy alliance. Short movies between battles push the plot along, and arcade, versus and survival-style modes are there once the credits roll.

Reviews at the time were mixed, but two decades on that is part of the appeal: a big, loud, early-2000s Marvel fighter with a deep-cut story and a roster built for settling X-Men versus Brotherhood arguments on the couch. For X-Men fans it is the most ambitious take on the Mutant Academy idea, and the series' one outing on the GameCube.

About the game

X-Men: Next Dimension is a fighting game and the third game in the X-Men: Mutant Academy game series. Next Dimension expands upon the concept of the first two games by adding several new characters, 3-D maps, and a story mode, which allows the player to fight a series of battles in between short movies that move the plot along. The plot of the story mode is loosely based on the comic story "Operation: Zero Tolerance".
