A massive data breach that occurred via the Steam API affecting over 100 games gave comic book fans an unexpected surprise: A list of achievements for the unannounced Marvel’s Avengers project, a long-running game property from THQ that was canceled in 2011, was discovered in the repository.
Although the original studio is long gone and the files themselves have been on the system since 2013, backend updates in recent months have once again drawn the attention of data miners to them. There have been recent rumors that a new Avengers project is indeed in development, and fans are wondering if someone is trying to give an old development a second life, or if this is just a digital offering.
Meanwhile, players have spotted mentions and covers of Marvel’s Avengers in official promotional materials for the series PlayStation Serieswhich is adjacent to the future Marvel’s Wolverine, Marvel Rivals and other popular comic book projects.
