Despite the numerous gameplay trailers and character spotlight profiles released for Marvel's Avengers, there are still plenty of questions surrounding Crystal Dynamics' upcoming action-adventure video game starring Earth's Mightiest. From the all-new original story to the various customization features, the video is our most in-depth look yet at the highly anticipated game.
The video walks us through the overall plot synopsis, which involves a government ban on super heroes following a catastrophic event that forces the Avengers to disband. In their absence, a new organization, Advanced Idea Mechanics (A.I.M.), rises in a pursuit to create a safer world through science. But as the video teases, under the surface is the signs of a conspiracy against heroes.
Marvel's Avengers also features a surprisingly deep customization system. In addition to selecting your heroes' cosmetic outfits, you'll also unlock gear that can be equipped to further customize your play style. Gear can be powered up by unlocking perks, while skills and abilities -- which will help build your heroes to fit your play style -- can be unlocked by earning experience.
The video also briefly touches on the two different kinds of missions in Marvel's Avengers. First, there are Hero missions; these are the single-player campaign experiences that showcase specific heroes. Then there are Warzone missions, which are played solo or online with up to four players.
