Marvel's Avengers is an upcoming action-adventure
video game developed by Crystal Dynamics and Eidos Montréal and published by
Square Enix. Based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Avengers, the game
is inspired by the long-running comic book mythology and adaptations in other
media.
The game's main storyline takes place five years after
A-Day, a celebratory day for the Avengers wherein a tragedy resulted in death
and destruction, and the Avengers were blamed. The team are forced to
reassemble to save the world from peril. The game features an online co-op
mode, allowing players to assemble a team of heroes of their own. The playable
characters include Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Black Widow, and Ms.
Marvel.
The game can be played offline as a single-player
experience or online with up to four people during certain aspects of the game.
The game will feature many customization options including abilities and
costumes, which can be upgraded using a skill tree. Costumes have been sourced
from "all corners of the Marvel universe" and can be bought
separately as DLC. Players will also be able to receive free updates containing
new regions and characters.
The game will be released for Stadia, Microsoft
Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in September 2020.
