Trivia[]

In n-Space (non-DS) versions, the character select mannequin file data of Iron Fist (also actor costume), Bishop, Cable and Electro are found unused and originally meant to be playable in those versions.
- Cable’s play-ability could have been similar to Psylocke for being start out playable in non-DS n-Space versions by default, prior becoming one of the DLCs.
  - Cable could have been remained locked during Folds’ invasions in all versions, which should also applied in DLC pack, as well as can only be unlocked in temporarily in Anti-Reg missions. However, this was shown to be an error, as the cutscenes shows Cable is amongst the victim of the Folds.
- Bishop’s play-ability could have been similar to She-Hulk, due to being only playable on certain n-Space versions while remained NPC in primary Vicarious Visions gameplay version.
- Electro’s play-ability in this version remained unknown, despite being a boss.
- Befitting the similar roles they have in in primary Vicarious Visions gameplay version, both Bishop and Cable could have been locked in their respective sides and as a boss on certain mission stages prior being unlocked during Folds’ invasion.
- Alternate costume was planned to be included in this version as well, but Activision and Marvel rush to release it without modeling alternate costumes.
Unlike other MUA games and X-Men Legends series, MUA2’s team slots remained lock in four team members.
The overreaching antagonist of the Civil War I, Walter Declum, does not appear in this game. Instead, he is replaced by The Fold.
- Declum was also responsible for the comic book event of Civil War I, which then came into light, by the time of Heroic Age comic book event.
