Claimed Marvel’s Avengers Datamine could point to new playable characters

08/18/2020 USA


With the beta for Crystal Dynamics’ Marvel’s Avengers game now falling on all platforms (although the PS4 got it early), dataminers have started digging through the files of the PC version of the beta, after all thoughts find clues about upcoming characters. According to a report by IGN, the game files include references to at least 15 previously unannounced playable characters.

As detailed across two different Reddit threads, the characters in the code are named with the prefix UnlockPlayableCharacter, with the full list including the following Marvel heroes:

  • Captain Marvel
  • She-Hulk
  • Kate Bishop
  • War machine
  • Peter Parker
  • Ant-Man
  • Wasp
  • Fisy
  • Black panther
  • Doctor Strange
  • Falcon
  • Mar-Vell
  • Mockingbird
  • Quake
  • Winter soldier
  • Scarlet Witch
  • Hulkbuster

While Peter Parker presumably refers to the PlayStation-exclusive recording of Spider-Man, other fan favorites such as Black Panther, Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch are new to the game.

Some fans have speculated that some of the characters, such as War Machine and Hulkbuster, will essentially be re-released versions of characters in the game, allowing players to get the limitation that prevents two of the same character from participating in a mission.

Although Hawkeye has already been announced as the first DLC character to launch in the game, one user dug deeper into the files to discover that Black Panther, She-Hulk, Kate Bishop, and Winter Soldier have the most files among have their name, implying that they will be ready sooner rather than later to add to the game.

The latest beta dates for Marvel’s Avengers arrive this week, from August 21-23 on all platforms. While the game will launch with six playable characters – Iron Man, Kamala Khan, Black Widow, The Hulk, Captain America, and Thor – the last two will not be playable in beta. Spider-Man will be available exclusively for players on the PS4 and PS5.

Marvel’s Avengers is scheduled to launch on September 4 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The game will also come to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
