Transformers developers making Deadpool game

Activision and High Moon Studios have announced a game based on Marvel Comics' Deadpool.

Deadpool has appeared in several video games over the years but this will be his first time as a lead character.

Details are scarce but Deadpool is expected to launch sometime in 2013.

Deadpool will be voiced by Nolan North, who has previously appeared as Nathan Drake in the Uncharted games.

High Moon Studios had been expected to announce a new Marvel game after a Comic-Con programming schedule revealed they would be making an appearance.
