Still waiting for the resurgence of Ben 10. I feel like WB games would have made a standalone game a la arkham by now if it wasn't so mismanaged
I'd love it to be absolutely anyone other than WB Games though
Could make for a cool Metroidvania game. Go around defeating the various aliens to gain their powers and unlock new exploration and combat abilities. Could be 2d or 3d game with plenty of platforming and combat. Basically just hollow knight but you transform to use different powers
The hard part of implementing a good Ben 10 game is that you would have to create at least 11 different gameplay styles to encapsulate the feeling of being Ben. You somehow need to find a way to integrate all of that into a cohesive game that doesn't make you think "oh no not the Grey Matter section again" when you're forced to solve some convoluted puzzle.
Make it a sort of immersive sim? You can solve the puzzle or you can find your way around
That's the hard part OP meant. Immersive sim is hard to make, even the one famous for it(Arkane) had pretty much left the genre.
