Square Enix has just announced that it will end support for Marvel’s Avengers on September 30th, 2023. Furthermore, and according to the publisher, the game will receive its last content update, Update 2.8, on March 31st.
Square Enix has made it clear that even after official support ceases on September 30th, both single- and multi-player gameplay will continue to be available.
On March 31st, Square Enix will remove all of the game’s GaaS and MTX features. In other words, it will make all the game’s Marketplace, Challenge Card, and Shipment cosmetic content available to all players for free. 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.
Lastly, Square Enix will de-list Marvel’s Avengers on September 30th.
This is yet another GaaS game that has failed to meet its initial goal. EIDOS Montreal, Crystal Dynamics and all the other studios that worked on it really struggled to provide new content for it. What’s more, the game was never THAT impressive (in terms of gameplay and combat).
Anyway, it will be interesting to see now whether all the big publishers will further invest in GaaS games. EA, Ubisoft, Microsoft and Square Enix saw numerous GaaS games fail. The only company that saw gains was Activision/Blizzard (like it or not, Diablo Immortal made a lot of money)!

doesnt that game use denuvo? So what happens to the denuvo servers?
They removed it
So one of the laziest cashgrabs ever didn’t pan out, huh? What a shocker
Have the 3 people been notified of this? they sure wont be happy about this “news”
Finally, the game is content complete and I can get it now (for the campaign)
Out of morbid curiosity, I played through the main campaign a couple of years ago when they did one of those free weekend things, and let me tell you, the game was a$s. Everything about it (apart from the technical aspects of the graphics) is utter mediocrity. I wasted my time. Don’t waste yours.
Square Enix is a garbage game developer like most Japanese game developers. Japanese love games where you have to select sh*t from a menu. That is best gameplay on earth for a J@p.

Design your game for the first half hour like a normal singleplayer game then let the grind commence. How is that not deceitful?

…….and nowhere in all the lands was a single sh*t given.
I spent more time downloading the near 100gb of files than I did ever actually playing it. When your first impressions are that poor, you know you dodged a bullet when it was gifted to you. Learn thy lesson Square Enix.
lol karma is a b*tch

Maybe the game will be worth trying again once it goes free? Not that I have any friends who have it to play co-op with, but maybe it will finally be not boring enough to bother playing through by myself? Or maybe it will just be the same boring gameplay experience, but I’ll finally be allowed to put my character in a shiny blue outfit without paying extra…
I played the game when it was in open beta and it was awful. Don’t waste your time or money on this.
I purchased it August 2nd, 2021 after trying a free weekend on Steam. After getting through the horrible beginning of the game where you play as the fake Avengers fighting on a bridge, the combat actually ended up being fun enough to convince me to purchase it at Greenman Gaming for $23.51 (I wouldn’t have paid full price for it).
After a while the gameplay did get too boring for me to want to continue playing it, and the one friend I had who has the game never actually seemed to want to play it with my despite the fact that he claimed to love it, so I eventually just uninstalled it.
I don’t think the makers of the game really knew how to make fun and engaging levels and enemies. Either that or the team working on it just weren’t given enough time to polish their designs to make the gameplay really enjoyable. The complicated inventory and upgrade systems don’t help either, as I always forget how to use them in between play sessions, and then I end up not wanting to play the game since I don’t remember how some of its core systems even work.

Very well presented. Every quote was awesome and thanks for sharing the content. Keep sharing and keep motivating others.
Every paid item will be FREE, now imagine how must feel people who bought those items for real cash.
Total loosers, who paid to suck someone’s c*ck.
3 players, so, statistically, 1 of them has paid so far.
I mean, peak players numbers on Steam was 31,165.
Now it’s ~500, so there are still losers who play this, and bought this pixel trash content.
Will be fun to play through again with all the MT’s unlocked. The graphics can be amazing at times. Will look to buy this on the cheap before it’s done for good.
Sub to the Game Pass and play it through there if you must touch it.
I do not even understand how I ended up here, but I assumed this publish used to be great

who gives a crap, are you stupid? Sony owns the licence to spiderman why shouldn’t it be exclusive to playstation? Write a letter than about how sh*t it is that starfield is exclusive to shitbox.
why did you like your comment?
Yes good question, I wanna know as well. ?
They just own the FILM rights, get a clue, fanboy clown. Spider-man appears in non-Soyny games all of the time. Eg 2019’s Nintendo exclusive, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3; 2022’s multi-platform Marvel Midnight Suns.
People care about platform exclusive content for multi-platform games because it’s anti-consumer move. Xbox and PC customers would’ve been charged the exact same price for the same game, but received less content.
I consider that that the entire concept of exclusive games is anti-consumer, but do recognise the difference in first party titles. Starfield is a 1st party MS game, I disagree with the business decision, but acknowledge the arguments for it. MS funded and own the game, they can use it to leverage their own hardware platform and services makes complete sense.
Soyny buying exclusive content for multi-platform, 3rd party games is entirely a different kettle of fish to dealing with 1st party games.

Eh, Square Enix doesn’t have anything to do with the game anymore, Crystal Dynamics is the one that made the game and was supporting it until now, Square was just the publisher.
The character wasn’t a timed exclusivity with Playstation?
Nope
Spider-man was indeed PS exclusive. Turns out the DLC was laughably bad garbage, so nothing of value was lost. The studio put minimal effort in Spidey and focused on a Black Panther + Wakanda expansion to capitalise on the MCU actor dying.
Great game! Played it on PC Game Pass (so virtually at “no cost”) and it was so much fun. Between this and Guardians of the Galaxy, I think this game is far more linear and action oriented while Guardians a mix of combat/strategy and small puzzles.
Can you imagine the incompetence level you must achieve to flop the literal life-blood of soyjacks everywhere? That IP was infallible, for f*ks sake.
Lmao
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
