If you've been waiting on Marvel and partners to make a solid game from its flagship superhero franchise, the Avengers, then now may be the time to finally get excited. Learning from lessons of the past, Marvel has now partnered with giant publishing/development company, Square Enix and Tomb Raider developer, Crystal Dynamics, to develop a number of new titles in the Marvel universe, with The Avengers at the fore.

Announced in a Tweet with a short, concept art video, we learn that The Avengers are set to reassemble once again. In what guise, remains to be seen, but it's gotten fans of the franchise rather excited.
With a host of memorable characters on the roster and the ability to expand beyond what The Movies have shown us so far, there is a whole lot of potential in an Avengers game. The question is, what guise will it take?
We're guessing some sort of action brawler, but it's equally possible it could be an open world adventure title, or even some sort of team management, strategy game.
What would you like the future of The Avengers gaming legacy to be about?
