Coates had some good ideas but Poor execution imo.
Coates stuff will be used and probably slightly altered .
Also I like NUMbaku
Regardless of who makes the game, Black Panther is only interesting when he is interacting with the outside world.
His rogues gallery is not strong enough to have it be strictly a Wakanda-based game.
So you might as well have a game where T'Challa could travel to NYC and Chicago, and Tokyo and what not.
But then again, you might as well turn it into an Avengers game.
Meh
SM PS4 was just Doc Ock and then a bunch of "others." Ain't like the general public cares about Mr. Negative lol. I read comics and barely know who he is.
You need one main guy and then others for fights. The "others" just need a cool design and powers.
There isn't anything special about Shocker, Rhino, Mr. Negative, or Scorpion other than cool costume + some powers.
Need a Brute like Rhino? Jakarra or M'baku work just fine.
Need a fly around dude like Vulture? Solomon Prey works just fine.
Need a dude with creepy powers like Negative? Baron works just fine. Tetu works just fine
Need someone to shoot stuff like Scorpion or Shocker or Electro??? You got Klaw, you got 6mil man, you got Salamander, you got Lord Karnaj
Need the big bad behind the scenes like Doc or someone to tease for the future like Osborn? You got Killmonger, Kiber, Achebe, Moses
Need a chick like Black Cat? Madam Slay, Malice, Zeniz, or Zanda work just fine.
People overrate what you need to make video games or cartoons. THe only reason spidey has so many popular villains is because they are stupid simple with decent costumes and he had a cartoon to push them constantly.
People will buy the game based on the title hero. Not the villains.

“Only interesting when interacting with the outside world.”
Like that Avengers expansion didn’t have people wanting to free roam Wakanda outside of the typical mission zones. Lmao.
The rogues gallery idea I think they can mitigate that by mixing BP villains people already know about (Klaw, Killmonger), giving exposure to lesser known rogues (Baron Macabre, Madame Slay), and some well known villains from other franchises that make sense for him to go up against (Mephisto, Kraven).

T'Challa
A.K.A. The Black Panther
King of Wakanda
King of the Dead and The Champion of Bast
Two-Time Time Magazine "Person Of The Year"
Six-Time People Magazine "Sexiest Man Alive"
To be fair unless the character in question is Batman, Spider Man or The Flash (and most Flash centric media down plays his rogues) they all have maybe 3 or 4 decent villains and that's it.
Which puts characters like Captain America, Iron Man and Black Panther all in the same boat.
Actually Iron Man might be even worse off now than the other two considering his archenemy has just been repurposed into Shang Chi's dad. The comics are gonna do the same sooner or later.
But for videogame purposes you just need one villain who has a army for the hero to beat up and 3 other villains to help get between the main villain and the hero.
Black Panther has enough rogues to fill out the video game formula and even if he didn't, the game would just use Hydra again.
See Wakanda and Die. Based entirely in Wakanda and the Skrulls can become any villain or hero. Super Skrulls are bosses.
You can have aerial fights with the N'Yami cruisers going against Skrull warships, each with their own fighter jets.
There can be stealth missions where you don't know if you're working with a Wakandan or Skrull.
Side missions allow you to chose to be other characters besides T'Challa. And some of the characters you choose to be could turn out to be Skrulls but you don't know it.
I'd play this game in a heartbeat.
I think people that post on comic message boards forget how little people know (or care) about the supporting characters around the one hero they recognize.
Wolverine is about ot get a game and a normal person might recognize Sabertooth. And maybe might remember the dumb robot silver samurai from the movie. Maybe.

Probably more people know Silver Samurai from the 90s X-Men Cartoon and the Marvel v. Capcom Fighting Game than the comics.
And Sabertooth was in BOTH of those. That's probably why the general public even knows who he is.
Oh yeah, there was a bad Wolverine movie with Sabertooth in it too. I almost forgot.
But generally, Comics peeps can't seem to ever get their heads around how the general audience DGAF about actual comics or the comics canon.
As a Spider-Man fan, this is pretty much the truth.
Sounds very much like the workings of a good Black Panther solo game.
Yeah, that does sound like an epic game.
If you're referring to X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Sabretooth there was generally one of the better parts, at least in terms of actually capturing him as the intelligent, sadistic predator he is when he's written decently enough. That said, generally cosigned.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Had it NOT been for the company going out of business....
Static had a COMPLETE video game for Game Boy.
Now who is in his rogue gallery???? Once you got past Hotstreak and Ebon? Yet he got a completed game.
Lets not forget Shadowman at Valiant-who also has a video game.
Miles Morales had one made for him in Finn.
Fantastic Four had a game with foes that most don't know beyond Doom. Diablo was in it.
