AMG announces a new Marvel Crisis Protocol Core Set!
Since its debut in 2019, Crisis Protocol has seen remarkable growth, not only in the ever-expanding roster of characters and the passionate global community but also in the evolution of Atomic Mass Games (AMG) as a studio.
What began with just four members has now flourished into a team nine times its original size. Over the years, AMG has honed and refined its expertise in sculpting, engineering, plastic production processes, game design, and development, as well as its artistic vision within the vast Marvel Universe.
Today, we are delighted to announce the upcoming release of a new and improved Core Set for Marvel: Crisis Protocol – “Earth’s Mightiest.” This new Core Set will maintain the game’s current rules while revamping and enhancing various aspects to offer an even more captivating entry point into the world of Crisis Protocol.
A Refreshed Experience for New Players
The Director of Product Development at AMG shared their excitement about the Earth’s Mightiest Core Set: “It was an incredible opportunity for us as a studio to refresh the primary entry point for new players and ensure the game’s continued upward growth. When we created the original MCP Core Set, we worked tirelessly to make it the best, most immersive, and fully-formed starter experience in the world of miniatures gaming. The last four years have provided us with invaluable insights, and we were eager to update the Core Set to maintain its position as one of the best starter experiences in tabletop miniatures gaming.”
Sculpting Excellence and Evolved Miniature Designs
With the new Core Set, iconic characters from the original lineup have been revisited and redesigned with meticulous attention to detail. Sculpting Director Marco Segovia, who was also part of the game’s initial sculpting team, explained, “This new core set is a culmination of all the lessons we learned in sculpting and parting miniatures. Learning about the material and its limitations allowed us to improve and integrate feedback from the community into these new versions of our beloved characters. From posing, part count, anatomy, special effects, terrain, and more, this box showcases the best of what we’ve learned and will continue to learn, as our journey to improve has no destination.”
A Creative Evolution
Creative Director Dallas Kemp, one of the core founding members of AMG, emphasized that the new Core Set represents the evolution of ideas and expressions within Marvel: Crisis Protocol. He said, “We’ve always pushed ourselves to create the best and most unique miniatures and games. The new Core Set is a culmination of our ideas and expression of Marvel: Crisis Protocol, a new stage that has been in progress for quite some time. It sets a new standard and builds upon what came before, shaping the language and ideas we want to express. We wanted to showcase our heroes and villains at a new point in their journey, exploring new narrative, engineering, and sculpting aspects.”
The Best of Crisis Protocol in One Box
Lead Developer Will Pagani shared his enthusiasm about the Core Set’s development, stating, “The opportunity to create new versions of characters with all the lessons we learned up to this point has been really fun. We portrayed these characters at different points in their stories, giving them a fresh expression while maintaining their essence. We also made sure that the majority of tactic cards would be compatible with previous versions of the characters. This exciting design process allowed us to delve back into the roots of MCP and explore new interactions with these beloved characters.”
