Marvel reportedly developing new Avengers video game

Reports suggest that Marvel is working on a new Avengers video game. According to industry insider DanielRPK, the project is currently in development, though specific details regarding the genre, structure, or the assigned studio have not yet been disclosed.

A key distinction of this rumored project is that Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics, the developers behind the previous ‘Marvel’s Avengers’ title, would reportedly not be involved. The previous game faced criticism for its heavy reliance on live-service mechanics and microtransactions, which contributed to its failure to meet expectations.

This potential new direction aligns with Marvel's recent strategy of distributing its intellectual properties across various studios to explore different genres, such as the upcoming Wolverine, Iron Man, and Blade projects.
