Please get this video to Insomniac thx



This video tries to imagine what a possible modern day AAA Ben 10 game would look like. The video goes into why a Ben 10 game would be feasible in the first place, with a supportive fanbase, a badass protagonist and engaging plot points. I talk about how Sucker Punch and Rocksteady could approach the idea - but ultimately handing over the baton to Insomniac because of their incredible and consistent track record with creating fun superhero experiences.


Thanks for watching! Be sure to leave a like if you enjoyed the video, and comment whether you think a Ben 10 game makes sense! Do subscribe if you would like to see more content like this, it helps the channel a ton! :)

    4:48 HES IN CONTROL OF EXTRAORDINARY ALIENS** continue with your day edit: pretend you don't see Ultimate Alien in the bin either I meant for alien force and ultimate alien to be a single entity - editor MESSED up that one continue with your day again

    CN has been real quiet with Ben 10, for no good reason. The fan base is hungry!
  • @an-animal-lover
    Funny you mentioned Yuri Lowenthal voicing both spider-Man and Ben as not relevant, but id say it would be. The fact that he's voiced both characters, and has experience working with Insomniac i think would make him the perfect choice to voice Ben again
  • @zargham4
    My priorities have changed now i want a AAA ben ten game
  • @breaddoggy5073
    Fun fact, the actor that plays Harry in Spider-Man 2 also played Ben in the live action movie Race Against Time

    The exaggerated swagger of a kid on vacation with his grandpa and cousin.

    I didn't know I wanted an Insomniac Ben 10 game until you made this video. It would be nuts

    1:38 for how much divided omniverse is,it is objectively the best show to base a game on ,it has so many iconic locations and planets to explore ,so many aliens to choose from ,and the expanded plumber base could make for a lot of things ,omniverse is just the best show to base a game on with how much diversify and variety the show has+being the last canon instalment so also having everything from the shows before it rather then being limited to a prequel,as for the show itself I think it did a solid job on balancing dark elements with light one ,it’s mostly light hearted just as classic with serious moments saved for the big arcs that’s more akin to alien force ,give it a watch without comparing and believe me it would be fun
  • As a massive Ben 10 fan, anyone who hasn’t watched Omniverse is missing out. First season alone is leagues ahead.
  • @tron-a-con3700
    I want to see the original 10 aliens in Insomniacs concept
  • @bartohawk7643
    I will NOT stand for Omniverse slander. That being said, I think we're missing the obvious Ben 10 Lego Game
  • @70aon
    Little do you know, you just summoned the whole fandom
  • I like how every Ben 10 show basically flowed from one another like a continuous story almost
  • @Player-re9mo
    I've been wanting to play a triple A Ben 10 game ever since Ben 10 Alien force for Ps2. Glad I'm not the only one still thinking about it!

    That Bumblebee impression was so spot on! I'm dead 💀 💀 💀

    This is great! I really hope Insomniac likes Ben 10 enough to make a game for it! On another note, here's an idea I think would be really cool: Since Ben 10 is a franchise that can fit in a wide variety of art styles, focusing on more stylized art direction rather than realism can have a lot of benefits: 1 - Iconic Designs: If Insomniac makes a Ben 10 game, and I really hope they do, they could pretty create their own unique art style that both suits the game AND the Ben 10 universe. 2 - Budget: The devs won't have to spend too much money on modelling, at least on the technical side, and can focus the rest of the budget on good gameplay! 3 - Performance: I could be wrong here, but with art style built on lower-poly models, the game can be more hardware-friendly. In other words, people with even a decent PC will be able to play the game, making it much more accessible and selling more copies! Also, just another fun idea: Insomniac could go for the Spider-Verse route and make a story that frequently changes art styles! I mean, its pretty much normal for Ben 10 at this point, so why not? It'd be awesome! Welp, thanks for reading my little rant lol
  • There's actually already a perfect time period to set this hypothetical game in that would work for the story and gameplay: the year after Classic when Ben is 11 years old. 1) It takes place after Classic so we'd have a massive rogues gallery to pull from, 2) We don't have too much information on what Ben was doing at this time so it'd be easy to write a story without disrupting canon 3) It would give us a large but not overwhelming alien roster (19 Classic Aliens plus Feedback and Arctiguana since Ben unlocks both of them sometime between Classic and AF) 4) It could expand on the Feedback arc 5) It could definitively answer the question of why Ben took off the Omnitrix in the first place As for gameplay, I think making each alien sort of a skill tree would be interesting where each one has basic combat mechanics but while some unlock new combat abilities others unlock new traversal/puzzle solving abilities. For example, Four Arms could unlock new moves like his thunderclap while XLR8 could unlock the ability to dash/sidestep or run up walls for better traversal.
