THE AVENGERS Console Game Coming To Fruition?

While we've been told announcements were coming soon, a new hint at the chance for Marvel's The Avengers live-action assembly being adapted to console video games has unveiled!

As Marvel's The Avengers big screen assembly has gone on to become "one of the greatest superhero movies of all-time", predicted to have the biggest opening box office weekend ever, peculiarly there isn't a tie-in console video game coinciding with the film's release. Of course, there was a game in the making with THQ up until the Australian studio was closed down. But now a hint at another console game has shown itself via Fusible.

"The Avengers video game looks to have a title — Avengers: Battle for Earth. On May 3, 2012, the domain name avengersbattleforearth.com (Whois) was registered through the brand protection company MarkMonitor. The name was registered by Marvel Characters, Inc. and is currently listed on Ubisoft’s nameservers: nic1.ubisoft.com and nic2.ubisoft.com."

Marvel's vice president of games production alerted us that announcements would unveil in the coming weeks, two weeks ago. And he also said that the Marvel: Avengers Alliance Facebook game was just the beginning of a much wider effort that'll support Marvel's The Avengers franchise with various "video game touch points."

With that said, the chances of Avengers: Battle for Earth being the next big console game is as likely as being another game developed for social networking of some sorts. However, with games such as the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time series, Assassin's Creed franchise, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon & Splinter Cell franchise under Ubisoft's belt, a console game for The Avengers seems more likely. What do you think?




Marvel Studios presents in association with Paramount Pictures “Marvel’s The Avengers”--the super hero team up of a lifetime, featuring iconic Marvel super heroes Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow. When an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security, Nick Fury, Director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster. Spanning the globe, a daring recruitment effort begins.

Starring Robert Downey, Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Samuel L. Jackson, & directed by Joss Whedon from a screenplay by Joss Whedon, “Marvel’s The Avengers” is based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series “The Avengers,” first published in 1963 and a comics institution ever since. Prepare yourself for an exciting event movie, packed with action and spectacular special effects, when “Marvel’s The Avengers” assemble on May 4, 2012. The film is distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. In addition to "Marvel's The Avengers," Marvel Studios will release a slate of films based on the Marvel characters including "Iron Man 3" on May 3, 2013!; and “Thor 2” on November 15, 2013.

Ubisoft? So much win! Just don't do it 1st person, and take the time necessary to do a great game completely based on the movie!

Mass Effect style.

I know how people feel about movie games, but I really enjoyed playing Captain America and I hope the Avengers gets a game based on the movie and not the comics right now.

Why not do it Arkham style, but with multiplayer?

CapFanLex005 - 5/5/2012, 11:14 AM
MASS EFFECT STYLE IS RIGHT!!!!! that would rule. If they can make a game that comes close to the awesomeness of the film then im in. You could even have different styles of game play based on which hero you use. More of a sneak and snipe with Hawkeye or Widow. Take to the sky's with IM and awesome AC style combat with Cap Thor and Hulk!!! Im drooling

It'll likely be another movie-based beat 'em up with co-op or online multiplayer.

Activision will make it, it will be lack-luster to say the least and not be anywhere near the movie or Akrham. It would be cool to get the voice cast from the current animated show though

A 3rd person Avengers game would be awesome..

As for the story..i think it should take place between Avengers 1 and 2

Story: It takes place 1 year after the Movie.Ever since the Avengers beat Loki things have been peaceful but on a peaceful day a television broadcast happens all over the world...Red Skull (Who is alive) explains that he has set bombs all over New York..and that not only they will have to deal with the bombs but a supervillain group called the Dark Avengers and they have to deal with Hydra.There is not enough time to stop the bombs and deafet the Dark Avengers..so they contact Doctor Strange and ask if his team can come in and help stop the Dark Avengers,Red Skull and Hydra.They accepted and the Defenders and Avengers go to new york to stop Red Skull and Hydra

In the game there are two storylines..

The Avengers

The Playable Charcters are

Captain Amercia
Thor
Hulk
Iron man
Hawkeye and Black Widow are not in this game

The Second story line is the

Defenders

Their Team Members are

Doctor Strange
Nova
Ms.Marvel
Iron Fist

NO DC DOESN'T SUCK STOP SAYING THAT PEOPLE!!

I want a new MUA game, not an Avengers game. Most movie related video games sucks!
Knightrider
Knightrider - 5/5/2012, 11:32 AM
@Deadfool Yes, because it isn't like a DC character that has game of the year awards...Hang On! I will hold judgement, as I don't really see the potential for a movie tie-in game and since movie games have such a bad record why everyone is jumping up and down for this one.

DrStrangeFan - 5/5/2012, 11:36 AM
Also there are rival battles between the Defenders and the Avengers (They do no like each other very much)

Hulk vs Ms Marvel

Iron Man vs Nova

Capatain Amercia vs Iron Fist

Doctor Strange vs Thor

Hope its good and has many Avengers in it. :)
I hope there is a multiplayer mode in which you can play as a team with your friends through the story.

Final boss needs to be Ultron or Thanos.
