Marvel's Avengers is a game based on the Marvel superhero team of the same name. It was developed by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. The game was released on September 4, 2020 on Xbox One, Google Stadia, PC, and PlayStation 4.[1] A next generation update for Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 was released on March 18, 2021.

Description[]

Marvel’s Avengers begins at A-Day, where Captain America, Iron Man, the Hulk, Black Widow, and Thor are unveiling a hi-tech Avengers Headquarters in San Francisco — including the reveal of their own helicarrier powered by an experimental energy source. The celebration turns deadly when a catastrophic accident results in massive devastation. Blamed for the tragedy, the Avengers disband. Five years later, with all super heroes outlawed and the world in peril, the only hope is to reassemble Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

The game features iconic heroes as you’ve never seen them before, notable villains, recognizable locations, and awesome powers set in an original Avengers story. Unlock powerful skills, heroic abilities, and unique gear for each of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to suit your play style. Up to four players assemble online to defend the Earth from escalating threats that only the Avengers can overcome. Featuring regular content updates, Marvel's Avengers will take players on an epic journey delivered over multiple years, during which you will master extraordinary abilities, customize a growing roster of Heroes, and defend the Earth from escalating threats.
