Marvel’s Avengers Confirmed for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X
Square Enix announced today that Marvel’s Avengers will be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X when the consoles launch in Holiday 2020. Players who own the current-gen version of the game will be able to upgrade to the next-gen version at no additional cost, regardless if players are moving from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 or Xbox One to Xbox Series X. Those moving their saves to next-gen will transfer their player profiles and progression so they can pick up right where they left off. In addition, cross-gen play will be supported so PS5 players will be able to play with their friends on PS4 and Xbox Series X players will be connected with their friends on Xbox One.
Marvel’s Avengers on next-gen systems will feature faster load times, boosted resolution and fidelity, improved texturing and armor destruction, ray tracing, and more. The PlayStation 5 experience will fully utilize the high speed SSD, the PS5 DualSense advanced haptics, and spatial audio. To fully customize their visual experience, PS5 will also provide players with their choice of Enhanced Graphics Mode or High Framerate mode.
Square Enix will have more details to share on Xbox Series X, Stadia, and PC specific features at a later time.
