"We’ve also made the decision to shift our PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S launch to next year to ensure that we give our team the time to deliver a next-gen experience showcasing all that this game is meant to be. More details to come," reads the message.

Marvel's Avengers will be playable on next-generation consoles via backwards compatibility. Crystal Dynamics promise to improve frame rate and speed up load times. Cross-generation play will also be available.

Marvel’s Avengers begins at A-Day, where Captain America, Iron Man, the Hulk, Black Widow, and Thor are unveiling a hi-tech Avengers Headquarters in San Francisco — including the reveal of their own helicarrier powered by an experimental energy source. The celebration turns deadly when a catastrophic accident results in massive devastation. Blamed for the tragedy, the Avengers disband. Five years later, with all Super Heroes outlawed and the world in peril, the only hope is to reassemble Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

Marvel's Avengers is now available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Google Stadia, and PC.

Marvel's Avengers is coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2021.
