Marvel's The Avengers Game: 10 Things You Need To Know

1. Co-Op Gameplay, But Can Be Played Solo

Without any real gameplay footage, we don’t know an awful lot about how the game will play. We might see some soon, but the current trend of heavy CGI trailers with limited gameplay means you can know everything and nothing about the game at once.

While we don’t know the how very much, we do know some core facts. It’s third person (a bit of a given here), and can be played in co-op online or in solo.

This suggests that, for some of the gameplay at least, you can select your character. One of your party can be Hulk, another Iron Man, et cetera. As one of the most famous and beloved teams in comic book history, having a way to actually feel like part of a team definitely kicks the Avengers game up another gear.

The solo option is a necessity too though. Team games, even when they’re PvE with adjustable difficulty, come with pressure that some would rather just tune out of.

Also, just flying around the streets of New York City as Iron Man should be fun enough on its own, so you’ll want some me time to ignore all of your objectives and just weave between the buildings.
