“Cutting to the short of it: ‘
The Avengers Project’ is
Avengers: Ultimate Alliance,” the ***** leaker said. “But it's not just
Ultimate Alliance 3, it's a full reboot with the name on it (think something like the new
God of War, minus the story continuity: similar name, totally new gameplay/story structure). That's the reason why the tagline of the first teaser was 'Reassemble', to hint at it being a reboot. This is also why the previous Ultimate Alliance games got uprezed recently for current-gen."
The user elaborated on the game’s story which reportedly includes an event that separates the superhero team even more so than they were in
Captain America: Civil War.
“The game takes place from the perspective of multiple Avengers after a cataclysmic incident broke the team apart (think more Dissassembled than
Civil War), but there are 3 which are the core focus: Captain America, Iron Man, and Scarlet Witch (who you heard in the trailer). They aren't the ONLY playable characters, but they are the leads of the story. Gameplay wise think a mix between
Uncharted and
Infamous.”
Info shared in the ***** post also mentioned that the game will have “connections” with the PlayStation 4’s exclusive
Spider-Man game with both existing in the same world. The post also references a
Guardians of the Galaxy game that Eidos Montreal is reportedly working on.
