The beta version of the game was rolled out to PC platform and allowed fans to peek at the game's codes.

"Marvel Avengers" DLC Characters Datamined

The latest information about "Marvel Avengers" was shared on Reddit by data miner RoboMatters. Digging through the game's beta, the data miner unearthed a list within the executable file and shared his discovery in a video that you can find below. Each character discovered is named and comes with the prefix, "UnlockPlayableCharacter_."

The full list features "Marvel Avengers" base roster, the post-launch arrival of Ant-Man and a lot more characters introduced by the Marvel Cinematic Universe. If the recent datamining activity proved accurate, players could expect Hawkeye, Vision, Scarlet Witch, War Machine, Falcon and Winter Soldier. Other characters uncovered in the game's PC beta include Wasp, Captain Marvel and Doctor Strange.

Two semi-MCU characters would reportedly arrive in "Marvel Avengers" soon. These are Mockingbird and Quake, who were both featured in "Agents of Shield." Other characters that would soon be introduced to the game through DLC include Black Widow, She-Hulk, Thor, Hulk Buster, Black Panther and Iron-Man. Kamala, Kate Bishop and Mar-Vell would allegedly make the cut.

Other "Marvel Avengers" Details

"Marvel Avengers" Creative Director Shaun Escayg recently said in an interview that the post-release character DLC of the game would "extend to all of the 80-year history of Marvel." Each DLC character would highly likely feature their own story arc, the creative director shared. "It will depend on how deep we go. But no character can be introduced without a story," Escayq noted.

"Marvel Avengers" is scheduled to arrive on September 4, 2020. The action-adventure title would release on current-generation gaming consoles' PS4 and Xbox One and on PC. Next-generation gaming consoles' fans could also anticipate the arrival of "Marvel Avengers" on PS5 and Xbox Series X later this year.
