Square Enix shows off its big Avengers game at E3
The Avengers films have taken over the world, so it was only a matter of time before a game came around to capitalize on that popularity. The Avengers Project, which is being developed by Crystal Dynamics, was finally shown off during Square Enix’s E3 2019 presentation today. It’s our first glimpse at actual gameplay from the project. All your pals, from Iron Man to The Incredible Hulk are here.
The trailer shows off a battle taking place in San Francisco — but everything goes wrong, and our heroes disband. The game is all about putting the band back together.
Marvel Entertainment and Square Enix have a “multi-year, multi-game partnership” according to a teaser trailer released in 2017. Crystal Dynamics, the developers behind the Avengers project, is known for developing games for the Tomb Raider reboot. Crystal Dynamics will be working alongside Eidos Montréal to bring The Avengers to life — you might know them as the team behind games like Deux Ex: Mankind Divided.
The Avengers Project will have characters and iconic moments from the larger cinematic universe, but according to Marvel, the game will still have a “completely original story.” The title is set up to follow the games-as-a-service model, with Marvel stating that it will “introduce a universe gamers can play in for years to come.”
