The Avengers is a cancelled first-person brawler video game set to be released in 2012, to coincide with the release of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film of the same name.[1][2][3][4][5] The game was not tied or based around the film, but rather an original story, inspired by the "Secret Invasion" storyline in the comics.
