Marvel Entertainment and Square Enix announced today a multi-year, multi-game partnership, leading with the reveal of The Avengers project. This newly established partnership pairs the creative minds at Marvel and Square Enix for one of the most powerful alliances in interactive entertainment.

 It's been a minute since we got superhero games that aren't fighting or mobile. Can't wait to see something come from this.

I know Square are going to do something idiotic like pull IO Interactive off Hitman Season 3 for this initiative (S2 is already in production so too late to pull them off that). But when?

Also please god don't let any of their Japanese studios near it either.

I mean why would they when Crystal Dynamics is free. As is thier close partner Avalanche.  Maybe Square would like to work with Platnium again after Nier.

I bet you most of them do. Crystal Dynamics has been free from Tomb Raider for a while now.

Not gonna lie, I’m pretty hyped for this game.  The open beta in 2 weeks is gonna determine if I pick it up day 1 though.

Deus Ex died for this, so all I can hope for is that Square Enix introduces Marvel characters to Kingdom Hearts and Disney fans have to pretend they enjoy heart to heart scenes between Goofy and Tony Stark about the difficulties of parenting.

Title was ironic, but I really feel a disconnect from this game.

I’ll see how it plays out from afar, but from what I can tell there’s really basic combat and the core loop is just bumping your stats?

I’ll hold further judgement until I see more impressions from people who have played it.

The PS4 has an open beta this weekend. Might as well try it yourself.

Everything about this deal is disgusting.  Screw The Avengers.  SE is needing to get someone on Deus Ex follow up FFS.  >:(  This is going to turn out worse that the EA/Star War train wreck.

I might try it after seeing that there's more depth to the combat, but I don't really care much for this game's aesthetic and dunno about the GAAS/grind gameplay.  If I want to play as Marvel characters and go run around beating up bad guys, I already have Ultimate Alliance 3 and its much bigger roster.

I have been underestimating this game in terms of possibilities, for a second or two it definitely felt like I've been playing DMC starring Iron Man and it's been fantastic beyond all fours. I also haven't seen anyone (so far) going for the style that I showcase in this video, I hope it'll spark more interest in exploring the full game when it arrives.

Mickey: "oh no Sora is in Trouble"

Black Widow: "Quick use the Cha-os ex machinum(?) Donald"

Donald: "psyou gotcha BlacksWidows"

Thor: "O no I cannot believe Sepiroth has split the mani.. mana(?) of my soul onto the gust of my conscience I feel my energy draining from my heart"

Iron Man: "Please forgive me Goofy. I cannot open my heart to you. Our love will remain unanswered for I cannot forgive my own sins."

Star Lord: "We really are the last of us"

Mulan: "Now sing everybody!"

****Fly on the winds and pray for my life in the darkness of time with your sooooul..... our love remains darkness of the tiiiiiiides... as we enter the night*****

Can't wait for this to battle it out with Suicide Squad  :wow (both should bomb into the same oblivion as Anthem, but unfortunately all the manbabies will embrace the hype like they are told to).

Every time I see it, I just think that they should have made a Black Widow game that played like Tomb Raider.

I'd play it for free, hell a free version of this is basically Marvel Heroes which I wasted a bunch of time on. Gameplay really doesn't look like it's much better than the ultimate alliance games which have like 5 times as many characters. I'll try the open beta for sure but I'll be waiting a while for it to hit a price I'd jump in on.

Finally got in. Put in around 3 hours.

This game is super high production value turbo trash. Money is burning on screen in the service of a bad PS2 budget title gameplay.

I just ran through the intro level.  This really is the epitome of a "AAA" game.  Cut scene, cut scene, PRESS BUTTON, cut scene, button mash, more cut scenes, cut scene, do some stuff, cut scene, switch characters, repeat.

Thor seems OK I guess.  Iron Man was kind of boring.  Hulk was pretty fun, Cap was good, although there was a point where it kept prompting to press forward and hold O to vault over shield-bearing enemies, and he wouldn't do it because their backs were to the wall.  Black Widow was also good and had better melee stuff than everyone else. 

Visually it looks good, but also off.  There's something about the character models that makes them look like they're from a high quality big budget PS3/360 game.  I selected the performance option over 4K and it seemed pretty smooth for the most part. 

Also kept getting these "YOU ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE SERVER.  CHECK YOUR CONNECTION" messages every so often.  They cover the middle of the screen and are super-annoying.

Nothing about the way the game plays really stood out to me but Hulk and Widow were the most fun.  Will keep going later.

Ironman is a bit more engaging and enjoyable, the Anthem flying is fine.

There are bunch of skills to unlock and whatnot so it's difficult to completely write this off but damn the first impression is bad. Maybe it gets deeper later on but I'd rather wait until this is sub $10 and has X-Men.

it sure as hell wasn't anything amazing, but i did enjoy it in the same way i've like lots of other comic book beat em ups over the years. i'm interested now. tho i gotta say the different faces and mediocre voice actors were giving me uncanny valley vibes, and the character models look almost last-gen.

    Ant-Man
    Vision
    Black Panther
    Dr. Strange
    Falcon
    Mar-Vell
    Mockingbird
    Quake
    Winter Soldier
    Scarlet Witch
    Captain Marvel
    Kate Bishop
    She-Hulk
    War Machine

Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch could be neat but we need lots of X-men. Give me Wolverine, Storm and Magneto cowards.

Played through the tutorial. It has very good graphics.... and the voiced acting is notably terrible.

Gameplay feels nice and punchy, so they campaign might be fun.

Also, ms marvel could do a number on the old prostate.

Edit: also for a game that’s supposed to come out in like 2 weeks it’s buggy as shit. Multiple freezes, disappearing hud in less than a hour of playing it.

Wow the Inhuman aspect of this story feels like a relic. Wonder if it would have featured them had the game started development much later.

From the demo it seems it’s based on the Terrigen cloud storyline.

Tried to do a mission today, got to a room where I needed to kill 5 enemies to continue and they would just straight up disappear, once while I was in the middle of a takedown :rage

Even when I reloaded the check point 90% of the time there were only 2-4 enemies.

I’ll try again tomorrow and hope it’s not still bugged.

Not sure if I'm more angry that they shelved Deus Ex for this crap, or that this crap will still manage to profit due to their asinine Gaas structure and mouth breathing mellenials will keep shoveling them money.  So angry right now.  :ltg
