Marvel's Avengers: How Long Does It Take To Beat?

 

Marvel's Avengers is coming tomorrow, after a brief early access period for Deluxe Edition owners. Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics are planning to make the live game last well into the future with additional characters and missions, but how long can you expect the base story content to last?

Based on the experiences of GameSpot staff, you can expect the story campaign to last around 10-14 hours. That time includes completing all of the story-crucial missions, marked with the Avengers "A" logo, as well as some side-missions.

 

Of course, that's all contained strictly within the Campaign menu. That campaign is a self-contained story that unlocks the full team and awards you with some starting gear, but to really make the most of your heroes you'll want to play the post-campaign content in the Avengers Initiative menu. That's where Crystal Dynamics will be adding more heroes and limited-time events, including the Taking Aim event that will introduce Kate Bishop as the first DLC character.

The Avengers War Table stream that announced Kate Bishop was revised out of respect for Black Panther's lead, the late Chadwick Boseman. There had been speculation that the stream would introduce a Wakanda raid, Black Panther as a DLC character, or both.

"So far, though, I'm really enjoying what Crystal Dynamics is doing with these characters and with the Avengers story the developer is able to tell," Phil Hornshaw wrote in GameSpot's Avengers early review impressions. "It's the heavily video gamey portions that are dragging me down, and I'm hoping Marvel's Avengers will grow into them as I continue my adventures."

Marvel's Avengers releases Sep. 4, 2020. To celebrate, Square Enix gave PlayStation 4 pre-order audiences three weekends worth of beta — fewer if you didn't pre-order or pre-purchased a PC or Xbox One copy. Players got to smash through four main campaign Hero Missions, four multiplayer War Zones, and five multiplayer Drop Zones as Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, the Hulk, and Kamala Khan (a.k.a. Ms. Marvel).

 

If you participated in the Marvel's Avengers beta, you may wonder how much of the full game it "spoiled." Did the beta feature the majority of the collectibles, abilities, cosmetics, and loot? Did the variety of missions represent everything players have to look forward to? How much of the story did Crystal Dynamics reveal?

If you finished everything the beta threw at you, you'll likely be pleased to learn Marvel's Avengers has a lot more in store at launch. Here's the lowdown on just how long it will take you to complete Marvel's Avengers.

In October 2019, ComicBook.com sat down with Crystal Dynamics senior brand director Rich Briggs and asked about the game's length point-blank. According to Briggs, if you stick to the main campaign, Marvel's Avengers will take around 10-12 hours. No grinding, trying to max out characters, or working alongside fellow gamers, just 12 hours of straight single-player story.

 

However, if you complete side missions and other optional activities, you will get a lot more bang for your buck. While Briggs didn't give an exact answer, he stated the total completionist game length is comparable to Crystal Dynamics' previous Tomb Raider games, which average 30 hours.

Of course, these numbers only apply to the game at launch. Marvel's Avengers will receive plenty of post-release content, such as the heroes Hawkeye and Spider-Man and their respective missions, as well as new regions and other levels. Expect the total length to balloon significantly after the game releases.
