Every playable character in Marvel's Avengers

If we’ve learned anything from Marvel’s comic books and cinematic universe, it’s that the world is always expanding. New villains are always appearing, and new heroes are always swooping in to stop them. Crystal Dynamics is taking this same approach with a game starring Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Marvel’s Avengers launches with six playable characters, but that’s far from all the heroes we’ll be able to control when all is said and done. Crystal Dynamics has said that all playable characters will be added at no additional cost, but additional upgrades for those characters can cost money.

Check out all the characters you can play as in Marvel’s Avengers, as well as all the heroes still to come.

Just like its hero roster, Marvel’s Avengers has steadily increased its villain roster.
