Marvel's Avengers (PS4)

Lego Marvel Avengers: review

Lego Marvel Superheroes is a tough act to follow. It's funny, great fun to play – easily one of the best Lego games so far, in fact – and crammed full of dozens of Marvel characters, both famous and obscure.

LEGO Marvel's Avengers

'Lego Marvel's Avengers' is based almost exclusively on Marvel's Cinematic Universe. It cribs scenes mostly from 'The Avengers' and 'Avengers: Age of Ultron', but also has levels from 'Captain America: The First Avenger', 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier', 'Iron Man 3', and 'Thor: The Dark...

Didn't keep me entertained for long.

Like most Lego games, it's missing a lot of depth and there's loads to do but there's no fun doing them.

Avengers as a service.

That's not to say Avengers is a bad game. It is a very PRETTY game, with some TIDY ENOUGH animations, that unfortunately get stuck under the grind of games as a service. The online mechanic and necessity of the grind to improve your current favourite Avenger stymies the potential of a “good game”. And when characters are locked behind their “narrative moment” (a.k.a release for the title), it doesn't really hope to excite players, but rather tap into their fandom. Hopefully in 6 months time, and with the release of the next generation of consoles, we'll see the true intent of this game and finally feel the impact of what it means to “Assemble”.

Continuing developer TT Games' history of translating entertainment properties into Lego adventure sets, Lego Marvel's Avengers ' 10-hour open-world campaign has plenty to do and a sense of humor that keeps the game entertaining. But technical and mechanical issues disassemble its charm.

Radio messages from Peggy Carter! Slapstick with Thor and Hulk! Lego Marvel's Avengers should be a delightful romp with beloved heroes, but it's a clunky chore.

The Deadly Tower Of Monsters review – so bad it's okay

B-movie by name and B-movie by nature, but there's still enjoyment to be had with the endearingly rubbish enemies and fun but vapid combat.

"Love the smashing and flying around the world."

Good game and hours for fun.

Fun!

Fun game. My husband and I often play with our 9 year old who loves it. Nice challenge to the adventure and he loves unlocking new characters. Looks like we still have pretty far to go, but so far, pretty cool.

This title brings players into the worlds seen on the big screen, taking you through major events seen in The Avengers (or Marvel's Avengers Assemble in the UK), Avengers: Age of Ultron , Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World .
