The trigger activates the repulsor thrusters to move the character in space, the move button fires energy beams and the X button fires a blow. When controlling, the controllers have to be spread out at a certain angle and the hands turned so that Iron Man can move in the desired direction, accelerate and brake.

This includes an exclusive armor that was specially designed for the game by the comic artist Adi Granov.
