It’s no secret that a lot of Marvel fans are disappointed with the new faces of all their beloved heroes in Marvel’s Avengers. But what if Crystal Dynamics’ upcoming title had the original cast? Well, we can get a glimpse of such a thing thanks to this deepfake video from BabyZone.
In this video, BabyZone added Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo in their iconic roles. BabyZone used DeepFaceLab 2.0 by IPerov to create the face models for each actor.
“I used my own 192 DF model trained over 1M iterations. Faceset of for each actor was created from Marvel’s Avengers movies and then trained separately for each cutscene, and all models training were performed on NVidia 1080Ti and 1070 Ti GPU mounted together. I created masks and applied XSeg masking during the render. “
The end result feels a bit weird. For instance, Thor looks way better than his in-game model. On the other hand, Black Widow is a mixed bag (sometimes it’s better and sometimes it’s worse). Ironman also looks weird, especially due to his new in-game haircut. Lastly, Captain America and Bruce Banner look serviceable.
In short, the results are not as mind-blowing as some other videos I’ve seen. Still, it will undoubtedly put a smile on most Marvel fans’ faces. I also really wonder whether a Texture Pack, featuring all the original cast, will be possible in the PC version.
Marvel’s Avengers releases on September 4th. The game will also receive a Day-1 Update that is 18GB in size. Naturally, we’ll be sure to cover this upcoming triple-A game, and will report on whether its performance has been improved over its open beta build.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Marvel’s Avengers (game) feels like a Marvel cos play group at comic-con.
only autistic rytards care about super hero movies and super hero games.
The PC version will get a mod to replace all the faces anyways…but that mod will not make this game any interesting.
Not if it’s always online
True that buddy
and somehow faces of hollywood actors make the game more immersive? Here’s a thought, how about the characters actually look like the effing characters established in the books for decades??? You know a game that actually has comic characters faithfully reproduced from the comics!
Ikr. Actors faces in games are rtarded. You have a medium which is not bounded by the limitations of movies and you choose to bind them to it. Madness!
it gets worse. Have you noticed how masked characters in the movies tend to not be wearing the face masks when they should? It’s so the pampered actors get their facetime with the audience. Pretty sure they get those demands in the contracts. So far Ryan Rynolds has been staying faithful to the hero image he is portraying but then again the other choice is a lot of makeup. This why I don’t bother with the movies anymore. It’s no longer the characters but the actors who are being portrayed on the screen.
Because normies (the game is clearly aimed towards them, like in most GaaS) attached the faces of the actors from the movies to the characters, they don’t care about comic book accuracy at all. This game should came back in 2009 with the first movie, now is irrelevant and having this who? cosplaying as the Avengers doesnt help.
Put “deepfake” in the headline you wiley bastad John ?
In the picture above,Captain America looks like vin diesel with hair…lol
Lol I can’t unsee that now xD
Yes turn Captain America back into Captain Cuck.
Anyone who thought this game was linked to the MCU is a f*king moron and live in a really f*king small world.
By the way, which one is Scarlett Johansson ? ROFL
Great, now I can have Hollywood hacks in my videogames
And just think Square Enix will charge you for this to be put into the game officially.
