Marvel superheroes are coming together like never before. Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced Lego Marvel Super Heroes, the first entry in the lucrative brick series to feature Marvel characters.

Developed by TT Games, in association with The Lego Group and Marvel Entertainment, Lego Marvel Super Heroes is due out during fall 2013 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U, PC, DS, 3DS, and PlayStation Vita.

The game will offer an original story that has Nick Fury calling on Iron-Man, the Hulk, Thor, Spider-Man, and Wolverine to save earth from threats at the hands of Loki and Galactus.

Like past entries in the Lego universe, players can expect Lego Marvel Super Heroes to contain the same "classic Lego video game adventure and humor."
