Marvel's Avengers

The action of Marvel's Avengers begins on what is known as A-Day. It's the day the superhero team of Captain America, Iron Man, the Hulk, Black Widow and Thor are attacked by an insidious enemy while experimenting with unknown technology. As a result of the catastrophe, which claimed the lives of thousands of people, the Avengers had to go into the shadows. Five years later, comes an even greater evil that once again threatens all life. The superhero team must once again unite to face the enemy.

Marvel's Avengers is an epic action adventure that combines cinematic storytelling with single-player and cooperative gameplay for four players. The project will evolve on a game-to-game basis. Players will receive new superheroes, regions and all upgrades for free. There will definitely be five "core" Avengers available to players at launch: Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, Thor and Black Widow.

Marvel's Avengers flopped
Square Enix has released a new quarterly report reporting a loss on sales of HD games. That's what the company is calling major releases, which was the release of Marvel's Avengers.

Analyst David Gibson examined the Japanese publisher's materials and reported that sales of the Avengers game were only 60% of the planned number. Around three million gamers on various platforms decided to break into the world of superheroes, which did not allow the publisher to recoup the development costs of the game. According to Square Enix's report, the company lost around $62 million on Marvel's Avengers. Gibson estimates that developing the game cost the publisher between $170 million and $190 million.

Financial experts at the Japanese publisher express confidence that all is not lost and Marvel's Avengers will be able to at least recoup its production costs. But when this will happen and how much more money will need to be spent on the development of additions and updates is unknown.
