Fresh from Gamescom, Marvel Entertainment and Square Enix have unveiled the first official gameplay video for Marvel’s Avengers, the upcoming video game from Crystal Dynamics, which is packed with almost 20 minutes of lightning strikes, repulsor blasts, ground pounds, shield throws, spy tech and superhero action; check it out here…
Marvel’s Avengers is a story-driven, third-person action-adventure game. Players will reassemble and rebuild their Avengers roster in an original, cinematic single-player campaign, then battle solo or online alongside friends in new missions around the globe. They can also customize Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and harness their unique powers to defend the world from escalating threats for years to come.
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.
Marvel’s Avengers is set for release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Stadia and PC on May 15th 2020.
