Marvel's Avengers is almost dead, so now's the perfect time to jump on what might be the Marvel's Avengers is certainly worth playing after a colossal discount, but act fast.
I'm a staunch defender of Marvel's Avengers. Yeah, its focus on live service elements is to its detriment, but under all those upgrade screens and unending currencies, there's a good single-player adventure. For a cheap price, it's absolutely worth giving it a go at the very least.
Marvel's Avengers will still have single-player and multiplayer content available after Saturday, September 30, 2023, but Square Enix has made it clear that "No new digital purchases of the game will be available" after that date, so you'll need to buy it before then.
All that said, he apologized for what happened to the game. It felt like a game that was released three years too late.
Since the sale, Marvel's Avengers has climbed from less than 250 active players on Steam to almost 1000, and while that's still not really enough to get a good feel for the multiplayer, it is enough for the single-player.
Buying the game right now will give you access to 11 characters (not including Spider-Man), a single-player story, and a slew of expansions with story-based content as well. You also don't need to worry about paying for microtransactions for any cool cosmetics at this point either, as Square Enix has made "Every single Outfit, Takedown, Emote, and Nameplate from the Marketplace, Challenge Cards, and Shipments will be free for all players from this date onwards if you own a copy of the game."
Until Thursday, June 29 you can nab Marvel's Avengers at 85% off, bringing it down to $5.99 / £4.49, which is frankly an absolute steal. If you're subscribed to PC Game though, you can actually play Marvel's Avengers at no extra cost, with all the free expansions and cosmetics available here as well.
If you want something a little different instead, we've got the very best co-op games for you, with both sure to keep you busy amid the summer season of big game releases.
