Someone managed to get six minutes worth of footage of Square Enix’s upcoming Avengers game, footage that was supposed to remain behind the closed doors of SDCC. The original plan was reportedly to have it be an exclusive treat for all of the Marvel Gaming panel attendees, with a public reveal set for sometime next month. A fan with a phone had different ideas. The video is weirdly-angled and partially cut off, as you’d expect a sneaky recording to be, but it gives us a showing of Thor, Iron Man, and Hulk in action.
Our earlier report on the panel will give you some context for the footage. To sum it up, the Avengers are in San Francisco to publicly introduce a new west coast Avengers Tower. The celebration is cut short when terrorists attack the Golden Gate Bridge. Most of the team splits off to deal with the threat while Cap stays behind to defend the Helicarrier. The gameplay shown is that of the heroes fighting through various sections of the bridge attack.
