We have a brand new story trailer for Marvel's Avengers, the upcoming action game from Square Enix. In this PlayStation 4 title, you'll take on the role of various superheroes, such as Iron Man, Thor, and Hulk, and up to now we've not really known who they're fighting against. As revealed in the War Table live stream, it turns out the big villain of the piece is MODOK.
MODOK -- which stands for Mechanized Organism Designed Only for Killing, by the way -- is the alter ego of Dr. Tarleton, a scientist working at tech giant AIM to find a "cure" for inhumans. That is, people with superpowers.
It seems we'll be facing off against his armies of robots and contraptions in a fight to clear the Avengers name. After the events of A-Day, which sees the fate of Captain America sealed in an explosive incident, the gaggle of heroes disbands, until Kamala Khan discovers Dr. Tarleton's evil intentions.
We didn't just get a new story trailer today; there's also plenty of new gameplay footage to soak in. What do you think of Marvel's Avengers? Face off in the comments section below.

Wow, MODOK. Interesting choice, he’s become more comic relief than an actually nefarious foe.
MODOK being the villain instantly shot my interest up in this game, though I’m still on the fence
He's going to look horrifying with this game's graphics.
Choosing MODOK is a different but welcome choice, i liked they haven't gone for Ultron, Loki or Thanos what would be an obvious choice. Hope the game is good but i still have doubts, at least i still have Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 if the game sucks though i suppose.
Wow that trailer actually made me hyped for a game I couldn’t care less about up until seeing that.
Looks like how a person who hates videogames, despite never playing one, would imagine a videogame.
@Enuo That's good for a villain......right?
Hi there fellow gamers. This actualy looks quite interesting. It definitely made the game much more appealing, at least to me. Let´s see what Crystal Dynamics can do with this lincence. Cheers and happy gaming to us all
If this game can actually make MODOK of all villains more than just a comic relief joke villain I'll be highly impressed
Especially with his... comical design
Looks interesting but I get the feeling the campaign will be like 5 hours long or something. Still very much on the fence with this one, could go either way.
After actually watching the story trailer fully, my interest has been rekindled...not enough to pay above $20 though.
