The game is a direct sequel to LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. Story-wise, it's based on several live action films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Apart from the titular ones, namely Avengers (2012) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), the game also includes plot threads from Thor: The Dark World (2013), Iron Man 3 (2013), Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), and Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), focusing on their respective protagonists. The events of the game once again revolve around the mysterious artifacts called Infinity Gems, which serve as the linchpin to all Avengers stories. It's a colorful, light-hearted 3D platformer with third-person perspective. Therefore, gameplay boils down to exploration of game levels, solving puzzles, gathering collectibles, and fighting with opponents. It lets you play as one of the numerous Marvel superheroes featured in the company's comic books and films, including, but not limited to: Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, Thor, Loki, and Hawkeye. Obviously, not all characters are available from the start, but you gradually unlock them as you make progress in the game. You can complete it solo; however, extra emphasis was put on cooperative gameplay. Here, two players assist each other in combat and when solving puzzles. It has become more cinematic than any previous LEGO game. Thus, the locations themselves are not made of LEGO bricks, with exception of the heroes and a few, selected elements of environment. It has the unique sense of humor characteristic for the series, which is evident in numerous situational jokes. | ||
