Great news for Marvel fans! A new Avengers game is reportedly in the works, and it’s completely separate from Square Enix’s earlier game. According to industry insider Daniel Richtman, this project promises a fresh take on Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Let’s get into the whole news.
Source of the Rumor: New Avengers Game Unrelated to Square Enix
Richtman, who often shares entertainment scoops, revealed the new Avengers game on Patreon, where he posts exclusive updates for his followers.
He mentioned that this game won’t have any connection to ‘Marvel’s Avengers,’ the one made by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix.
Details about the studio behind the project or when the game will launch are still under wraps. Even so, fans are buzzing with excitement.
Background of Square Enix’s ‘Marvel’s Avengers’
“Marvel’s Avengers” came out in September 2020, made by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. It got mixed reviews from people who played it. The single-player story was fun, especially with Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel) – she was a cool new addition. Each hero had their own powers, which made the game interesting.
But the game had its problems too. A lot of players didn’t like how repetitive the missions were. The game also had bugs and there wasn’t much to do after finishing it. This made a lot of people stop playing, and it got harder to find other players for the multiplayer modes.
They tried to fix things, like selling XP boosts to level up faster. But this just upset players, who thought the game was more about making money than actually being fun. In the end, “Marvel’s Avengers” didn’t live up to the hype, and it was a big letdown for Square Enix.
Connection to Previous Rumors: A New Game by Marvel Studios or Insomniac
In October 2024, an insider known as MyTimeToShineHello also shared exciting news that Marvel Studios is working on its very first video game set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
This would be a big change from earlier Marvel games, which had Marvel characters but didn’t follow the storylines from the MCU movies.
Apart from that, there’s also hope that Insomniac Games might be behind the new project.
This studio is known for making the super successful ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man’ games, which were loved for their awesome stories and fun gameplay. Insomniac is also working on ‘Marvel’s Wolverine,’ so they’re clearly a trusted partner of Marvel Games.
Right now, though, there haven’t been any official updates or confirmations about the new Avengers game, and fans are still waiting to hear more about it.
