Despite being an immersive multiplayer stealth game at its core, the playable characters from the newly revealed Thick as Thieves seem to take more after some of Marvel's heroes and villains, like those seen recently in Marvel's Spider-Man 2. As part of its announcement during 2024's The Game Awards, Thick as Thieves showcased key details ranging from stealth-based gameplay to multiplayer functionality. However, the game's small if not diverse roster of playable characters seemingly offers players more than different gameplay styles, as each appears to have been influenced by several different Marvel characters.
