MULTI Square Enix presents Marvel's Avengers - Assembling on 4th Sep

[NarutimateTaha]

'Marvel's Avengers' similar to 'Marvel's Spider-Man' and 'Marvel's Iron Man'. Same universe maybe?

I would have absolutely loved it if this project had released sometime near Endgame.

But still eagerly looking forward to it. Wondering what genre this will be. We already have a classic traditional MUA style game coming to the Switch.

seems like it will be a brawl fighting game

Some information about the game.

- Single player or co-op
- Assemble teams of up to 4 players.
- Action Adventure genre
- Character customization
- "Ever Expanding" world.

Some more information before the reveal later today.

• Reveal at Square Enix conference
• Co-developed between Crystal and Eidos Montreal
• Focused on singleplayer story-driven aspect (the reveal though)
• Iron Man / Thor / Captain America / Hulk playable and switchable
• Aim for Spider-Man PS4 quality

Good to see Spider Man PS4 is a benchmark. That game is arguably the best comic book/movie franchise game till date.

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 Entertainment and Square Enix are excited to unveil Marvel’s Avengers, an epic action-adventure game that combines cinematic storytelling with single-player and co-operative gameplay.

Honestly, the story doesn't sound all that bad to me. Great voice cast too. Nolan North as Iron Man is cool. I'm pretty attached to the MCU versions of these characters and it will take effort to separate them from their game versions though. It doesn't help that Thor's design is straight up ugly lol

I've never wanted any other game to be good this much. Really, really, really hope they pull off something great.

Some more info on the game from E3.

 

[iampasha]

Super heroes got old and boring for me after the age of 10. I can't imagine a grown man playing and watching superhero movies and being emotionally invested in them. But that's just me

Didn't you say you preferred the Arkham games as a whole? Or do you mean best marvel comic book franchise game.

Spider Man 2018 = Arkham Asylum > Arkham City > Arkham Knight.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe Arkham Asylum goes above Spider Man. Both are equally superb games. Though Arkham Asylum is the king of pacing-done-right in a video game.

 

[iampasha]

Even i like Arkham games

 

[SolitarySoldier]

I couldn't play Arkham Knight for long after playing Spider-Man even though I loved Arkham Asylum. It seemed relatively uninteresting compared to Spider-Man. I don't follow anything superhero though, so I'll only be interested in a superhero game if its as good as Spider-Man.

12 minutes of gameplay:

This actually looks decent. I wonder why they didn't just show this at E3.

This actually looks decent. I wonder why they didn't just show this at E3.

I would say this looks more than decent. Actually pretty good especially based on what i was expecting initially. Games based on movies (Or Vice-Versa) usually end up being a disappointment. I guess developers try and imitate too much of the on screen experience that the end product ends up with absolutely no personality of its own. This is the only concern i have of Avengers. Plus i have always been of the opinion that its pretty hard to make games based on god-like super heroes like Thor or super man or even Hulk to some extent.

 

[NarutimateTaha]

Leaked gameplay:

Alternate suits were shown. They include Iron Man's Original Sin armor and Hulk's Fixit suit.

Nat's character model has been upgraded too:

 

[JANARIOO]

this looks like a Porno version of the avengers

 

[Chandoo]

The thor game play looks very clunky based on the video.

 

[NarutimateTaha]

More gameplay, this time of Hulk, Cap and Black Widow. Hulk and Cap look super fun to play as, and much better than Iron Man and Thor.
