The upcoming superhero game, Marvel’s Avengers will not be linked to Sony’s upcoming game, Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

This summer has seen a lot of Spider-Man related news. Sony officially revealed that the next Spider-Man game, Spider-Man: Miles Morales would be released for the PlayStation 5 this Holliday season even as Tom Holland’s upcoming Spider-Man film faced another delay. Earlier this month it was also revealed that Spider-Man would be a post-launch DLC character for the PlayStation versions of the upcoming game, Marvel’s Avengers.

This has led some to wonder whether or not the upcoming video game would be linked to the Spider-Man series by Insomniac Games. The game notably included Doctor Strange’s layer in the game as well as Avengers Tower in New York City. Sadly, it has been confirmed that the upcoming game will not have any links to these games.

During an interview with Entertainment Weekly Head of Creative for Marvel Games, Bill Rosemann stated that Marvel’s Avengers will not be taking place in the same universe as Spider-Man: Miles Morales. He did, however, say that the Spider-Man character in the Square Enix game would have certain parallels to Miles Morales:

“It’s part of his goal to give game-makers as much freedom as possible to craft the stories they want to tell. So, while this year’s Avengers won’t be linked to Spider-Man, it has its own web-slinger. Spider-Man has been confirmed to arrive in Marvel’s Avengers as a DLC story sometime after launch. But when the game drops, it will also come with a lead character who maintains certain parallels to Miles.”

What do you all make of Rosemann’s words? Are you sad to hear that Marvel’s Avengers won’t take place in the same universe as Spider-Man: Miles Morales? Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Here is the official synopsis for Marvel’s Avengers:

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.

Featuring regular content updates, Marvel’s Avengers will take players on an epic journey delivered over multiple years. This game is what’s next for the Avengers.

Marvel’s Avengers will be released on September 4, 2020, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. The release date for the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions will be announced at a later date.
