Gameplay Footage And Details From THQ's Delayed Video Game For The Avengers!

Following last month's test footage leak, the good folks from Kotaku have recieved a trailer, gameplay footage, as well additional info from developers THQ Brisbane regarding the much-anticipated game they were working on before their studio closed; Marvel's The Avengers. Seemingly looking promising, watch three videos below, and additional details lower.







The source tells Kotaku Australia that it was the only game that THQ Studio Australia (Studio Oz) was working on at the time of the closure and they had already poured 18 months of hard work into crafting what was anticipated to be a high quality Marvel movie game instead of just another licensed title.

When the developers at the studio got wind that Studio Oz was in trouble, they made these videos for Marvel in hope that the comic book giant would come on board and prevent any closures. Despite the superhero first-person brawler impressing Marvel, the project was ultimately canned by THQ.

The game was being developed for Xbox 360 and PS3, with THQ’s Melbourne studio, Blue Tongue, said to have been working on the PC version. Our source tells us that approximately 200 people in total were working on the game, including Blue Tongue and outsourcing.

I don't like the fact that its first person and the character designs suck.

Once again Marvel fails at making a good video game.

Also this isn't a adaption of the movie guys. They said so in the last Avengers game article.

Likin' the first person. Makes u feel like your the hero :). Looks better than the other Marvel games if they put more effort into it. Maybe this confirms the Skrulls in the movie they seem to big a threat to just randomly throw in a game. They look pretty damn cool would like to see them in a movie.

It's Based Off The Avengers.. Does Not Confirm Anything... I Don't Think They Would Release It... ;)

It Had Alot Of Potential.. All They Had To Do Was Make It 3rd Person View.... And Not Cancel It.. ;)

If you think first person is for shooters only, then you're missing out.. Dead Island, Dark Messiah, Oblivion, Morrowind... Try them out and tell me first person non shooters suck..

The first person style gameplay makes me think of the game Borderland, except more combat base.

God why do they have to cancel something this awesome, it gives me inspiration for a future video game.

Marvel just doesn't give a [frick] when it comes to games -_-

This game fully devolved would be freaking amazing. It would make all those SEGA attempts at Marvel licenses look like Commodore 64 games.
