[SDCC 2019] Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day — Игровой процесс широкая общественность увидит лишь после gamescom

На San Diego Comic-Con поклонники супергероев смогли увидеть игровой процесс сразу нескольких игр Marvel, но особый интерес вызывает сочетающий однопользовательский и многопользовательский контент экшен Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day от Eidos Montreal, Crystal Dynamics, Square Enix и Marvel Entertainment. Однако, как и в прошлый раз на Е3, пределы мероприятия видео не покинуло, о чем фанатов предупредили заранее.

Разработчики пока не готовы представить на суд игрового комьюнити свой проект, официально в сеть геймплей попадет лишь через неделю после выставки gamescom, которая пройдет в Кельне, Германия, 19-24 августа. А тем, кто не попал на SDCC, пришлось довольствоваться лишь текстовой трансляцией. Хотя кто-то все-таки заснял на свой смартфон короткий ролик, на котором Тор расправляется с противниками, есть и 6-минутное экранное видео, на нем уже не только бог грома, но и Железный Человек. Показали посетителям выставки и некоторые костюмы героев, например, Тора-викинга, Халка в образе Джо Фиксита и другие.

Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day выйдет 15 мая 2020 года на ПК, Xbox One, PS4 и Google Stadia.

Hall H is very excited! Their enthusiasm is electric. Shaun is now showing us pre-Alpha footage from the Prologue.

Shaun: We’ll continue to iterate and polish until we ship. Our story begins at A-Day, meant to be a celebration, but ending in tragedy.

Fan-favorite moments include Thor pinning an enemy in place with Mjolnir and leaving him suspended while finishing off other enemies with his fists. Calling his hammer back, Thor swirls it at an incredible speed to create a radial wind blast — one of his «Heroic» abilities.

Hulk’s up next, jumping out of the quinjet piloted by Black Widow. His goal is to take out the Pulsar Tanks causing massive damage below. Immediately upon landing, he picks up an enemy & uses him as a melee weapon against other nearby enemies. The crowd loves this move!

As the other Avengers try to secure the Golden Gate Bridge, Captain America is investigating why the Helicarrier autopilot has activated. The helicarrier is infiltrated by enemies, and Cap takes them on with a barrage of melee attack combos.

Back at the bridge, Black Widow confronts a newly arrived threat — Taskmaster — who brought a sonic disruptor bomb to the party. Taskmaster takes to the air, which doesn’t hinder Natasha’s pursuit. She jumps on his back and throws punches till the villain is grounded.

Despite their efforts, the Avengers realize the real target wasn’t the bridge, but the helicarrier. The helicarrier explodes with Captain America on it, and sinks to the bottom of the Bay.

A-Day sets the stage for the rest of the game. Blamed for the tragedy, the Avengers disband. Five years later, with all Super Heroes outlawed and the world in peril, the only hope is to reassemble Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

Both Iron Man’s Original Sin Armor, and Hulk’s Joe Fixit suit are getting some love from the audience! Trust us — there are many more fan favorite outfits to come. With so many mega-Marvel fans in the office, there was lots of healthy debate on which to include.
