Released for PS4 on January 26, 2016, the game continues the popular tradition of LEGO adaptations that blend family-friendly gameplay with well-known movie franchises.
The story in LEGO Marvel’s Avengers focuses primarily on the events from the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies The Avengers (2012) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), but it also features levels inspired by Captain America: The First Avenger, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Gameplay on PS4 includes classic LEGO mechanics such as collecting studs, solving puzzles, and engaging in brawler-style combat. The game features special Avengers Team-Up moves, allowing players to perform powerful combo attacks between certain character pairs. Players can explore several open-world hub locations, including New York City, Asgard, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, Barton Farm, and Sokovia, each filled with side missions, secrets, and collectibles.
LEGO Marvel’s Avengers for PS4 offers more than 200 playable characters from the Marvel universe, each with their own abilities and powers. Fan favorites like Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye are included, along with lesser-known heroes and villains. Local co-op multiplayer is supported, allowing two players to team up and play together on the same console.
The PS4 version takes advantage of the system’s graphical capabilities, offering sharper visuals and smoother performance compared to older console versions. Additional content is available through downloadable character and level packs, which can be accessed via a season pass or purchased separately.
