According to Kotaku, it looks like the video game adaptation of The Avengers will never see the light of day. The site have been informed that work on it isn't going well, and this has resulted in the closure of THQ's Brisbane studio. What this means for it is unknown, but here are some excerpts from the report which explain the situation in full.

We’re hearing rumblings that THQ’s Brisbane studio, the studio that’s currently working on the video game adaptation of The Avengers, is closing its doors today.

We received a tip late last night from a source who claimed that things just "didn’t work out" with said adaptation.

Apparently, at the moment, some staff are still in the dark with regards to the closure, but things "had been rocky for a while." There is no word as of yet what will happen to The Avengers game.


Well, what do you guys make of this news? The fate of the game is currently unknown, and it seems hard to believe that they'd scrap it when it's sure to make them a decent profit! We'll be sure to update you as and when more information comes to light.
