When is Marvel's Avengers coming to PlayStation 5? Square Enix confirmed a new-gen port of its GaaS-style superhero action title a long while ago, but new evidence suggests it could be right around the corner.
Over on PSNProfiles, the Trophy list for the PS5 version has emerged, indicating the game will release for Sony's new console very soon. Trophies typically tend to go live just before a game's launch, and lists only appear on the aforementioned website once they do, so it looks like the Avengers will land on PS5 sooner rather than later.
It's worth remembering that a War Table livestream is coming on the 16th February. Square Enix has said that this broadcast will go into detail on the PS5 version, but with the Trophies ready to go on PS5, we suspect the publisher will pin a release date on it too. Roll on next week, then.
Are you excited for the PS5 version of Marvel's Avengers? Suit up in the comments section below.

I still want to play this, personally. I know the reception has been really negative, but I wouldn't mind running through the campaign.
@get2sammyb Same. I ended up getting it during an after Christmas sale because I suspect there's going to be a No Man's Sky type of redemption. Not to mention, a significant amount of reviews I read said, "Campaign = Good; Everything else = Bad"
@get2sammyb maybe they'll put it on PS Plus at some point. Honestly that doesn't seem like a bad idea. I'll play it if they do.
@Brydontk exactly. Despite the hate bandwagon and people looking at a review score and making all sorts of wrong assumptions, the campaign is great.
@Voltan Seems very possible, but probably not in the near-future.
@get2sammyb Agree on PS5 should be a much better experience and hopefully they added some new content. Actually kinda excited to see the PS5 version.
@get2sammyb yeah I’ve been wanting to play this too. I held back after hearing the negative stuff about it. Hopefully the PS5 version will be an improvement.
I played a friend's copy (can you tell I'm winking with this eye patch on?) and really enjoyed the campaign despite its many, really damaging, flaws. The heroes and their abilities are all fun as hell and could absolutely hold up in their own standalone games. It's crazy how good they all feel and it's what makes me itch to buy this game (at a substantially reduced price, or after a substantially improved update).
@naruball I agree, the campaign was really good and included a number of things that made my inner-comics geek smile. The Kamala Khan stuff is great, and a lot of the enemies are straight out of the Lee/Kirby 1960's Captain America run.
It seems like every once in a while, a game has to be sacrificed on the altar of public opinion for being "everything that's wrong with gaming!" and to some extent, that happened here. Without question there are some glaring flaws in design. After finishing the campaign and Kate Bishop add on, I still have a hard time finding objectives and navigating the menus. Also, the loot system is tedious and some of the character designs don't click with me, but all that aside I've really enjoyed my time with the game.
Latest patch has nerfed how you can grind challenges meaning its even more grindy what means more pushing towards MTX, f**k them for doing that.
Avengers was basically Ultimate Alliance with a bunch of live service crap bogging it down
There is genuinely potential for a great single player game in there somewhere but it's never fully realized
Also most of the boss battles squandered their opportunities to utilize the wider Marvel Universe in supporting roles. Abomination's fight still aggravates me
Excited? No.
Disappointed? Very
This should have been the definitive Avengers game. It fell far short, so far in fact it's more of a curate's egg, game than an AAA game.
Definitely not worth my time
@TheFrenchiestFry and MAU is far better, the roster once you include the DLC for MAU3 is incredible.
@Amnesiac Exactly. Not everything about it is great, but overall it's a good game that fell victim to gamers jumping to conclusions and the rest following the herd.
@WallyWest Honestly yeah I'll have to agree
I thought MUA3 was a major step down quality wise from the first two games, MUA2 especially but I'd much rather play that again before Avengers
I enjoyed the single player story well enough but the tacked on multiplayer game as a service concept ruined it.
I bought this game early for the pre-order bonus of collectible pins at GameStop. I played the first hour and was already blown away by the graphics at that point. So I’m excited to play the PS5 version soon. Again all I was expecting was a fun 10 hour campaign where I get to play as the avengers and the occasional DLC that interests me. And I think it’s definitely worth a try if you’re at all interested in the subject matter.
It will have to be sold at a budget price because its not worth RRP
@get2sammyb i kinda wish that they would let you buy the story side as a standalone. The online side seems to be a massive grind im not to interested in.
They should've just left the superhero games to rocksteady and insomniac as they've made the only good ones in the last decade
It plays buttery smooth on the PS5 as it is. I am excited what the official PS5 release has in store!
Sweet. Now I can not play it on two consoles.
Still enjoying the campaign but still have not played online yet..deliberatly stopped playing when the ps5 update landed on my radar but as it stands so far you can play it 4k@30fps or 1080@60fps..
Personally pretty excited.
The demo/beta was kind of bunk but the full game was very fun IMO. Picked it up at a discount and spent an entire Sunday playing the campaign, then set it aside to wait for the PS5 version. So, yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
Seems like there's a lot of bandwagon hate going on, which is unfortunate.
@get2sammyb The same could have been said about Control, yet here we are . Maybe wishful thinking, but I hope it will be included in the March PS Plus offering.
The campaign is a lot of fun, but I have had no interest in playing since finishing it. The missions are very repetitive. Still worth it for the campaign, in my opinion.
@get2sammyb I really enjoyed the campaign, it's not perfect but there is fun to be had with it. I'm really looking forward to jumping back in to do Kate's stuff when the PS5 update drops.
I will probably wait and get it later when it's eather just cheaper or on sale
I might get the ps4 version of you get an upgrade to the ps5 version
Why is there a pic of Noel Fielding?
Just give us an X-Men game please and thank you.
