Official description

X-Men Legends is the only epic action-RPG where gamers pick and customize a team of X-Men, and for the first time, experience the X-Men's greatest strength—working together to combat evil and protect the fate of mankind. The story begins when the X-Men learn that Magneto, their greatest adversary, has devised a plan to give mutants the power to reign supreme over humans. The X-Men are then forced to battle Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutants to prevent global chaos and stop the imprisonment of the human race. To save the world from this fate, players pick from a roster of more than a dozen popular X-Men characters, including Wolverine, Gambit and Storm, to create, customize and control teams of four in real-time action. Authored by former X-Men comic book writers, the original storyline is rife with plot twists and intrigue and enlists players in the most immersive X-Men quest ever.
