It's coming to PC & console in May 2020, Hopefully it'll be a good game with Crystal Dynamics at the helm.

I'll be adding to these posts as more info is released. I wasn't that interested in it until I saw that Crystal Dynamics were involved. They did a great job with Tomb Raider so hopefully they'll do as good a job with this.

It's an interesting one, if at least from a delivery point of view. A games as a service game, but with extra content for free (including new heroes and regions), and they intend for us to be playing it for long after release.
The real question (for me, anyway) is can they make all the heroes play differently enough from each other, but have all their various skills needed to overcome missions. What I mean is, if all missions can just be completed through the brute force of Hulk, Thor, or firepower of Iron Man, then I don't see it having much longevity. If genuine teamwork and tactics are needed though, utilising all the heroes' individual skills, it could be great.

I like how they made Black Window a bloke in this, very PC.

Here's a leaked video of gameplay footage from Comic Con doing the rounds for those wanting to see it in action. Filmed on a phone though, so you might prefer to wait for the official release sometime next week.

Still finding it difficult to get too enthused about this, but we should know more in a few weeks.

That actually looks better than I was imagining, at least in terms of depth/scope. And I don't mind games as a service when all the updates are free! Still not convinced I'll buy it, but it has potential to be fun.

Here's the latest "war table".

I'd say that looks pretty good! Kinda like a Marvel-themed Warframe

I hope the combat system is similar to that found in the latest Spider-Man games, really enjoyed that game... 100% Platinum club!
Also, I wonder if we'll see all the Avengers being included over the many months ahead, Spider-Man maybe or does Sony hold the rights for this?

Funnily enough, there were rumours going around that Spidey would be exclusive to the PS version of Avengers, but I can't see that happening really. He appeared in Ultimate Alliance 3 on the Switch, so I guess there's a chance he'll be included somewhere down the line.

I'd probably get this game when it reduces in price (pending half decent reviews), and as much as having Spider-Man in the game is pleasing from my perspective as a dead cert PS5 owner, it really is anti-consumer to be doing it.

Didn't they just nick the combat from the Arkham trilogy?
