Marvel’s Avengersmay have been delayed into September, but Square Enix still has plans for potential players to get a chance to try it out before then. On Wednesday morning Square Enix confirmed three different dates for different stages of theMarvel’s Avengersbeta. It’ll be split between platforms, with PlayStation users gaining access earlier than PC and Xbox users. But, at the very least, all platforms will eventually have access to aMarvel’s Avengersopen beta.
According to IGN, PlayStation users will get early access to both the closed and open betas forMarvel’s Avengers. This is due to apartnership between Square Enix and Sony, the full details of which aren’t publicly known. Regardless, the pre-order closed beta forMarvel’s Avengersis open to those who pre-ordered a PS4 copy of the game starts August 7. The open beta for all PS4 users will follow on August 14.

The PC and Xbox One open beta will follow on August 21, just a couple weeks before launch.
The exact details for theMarvel’s Avengersbeta have not been made fully available by Square Enix yet. For example, the closed and open betas for all platforms may only last for a handful of days, rather than a full week. Requirements forMarvel’s Avengers' multiplayer featureswill also need to be detailed. Exact starting and stopping dates will be announced at a later date.
In fact, Square Enix has already announced when it will be sharing more information. A secondMarvel’s AvengersWar Table presentationhas been announced for July 29 at 10:00 am PT. This presentation will be dedicated to detailing everything that can be expected from the upcoming beta.
Square Enixdid tease some of the content that will be available for players to try for themselves, however. According to creative director Shaun Escayg, theMarvel’s Avengersbeta will include campaign content, co-op missions, hero progression, as well as exploration in War Zone and a new mission named Drop Zones. In other words, it sounds like the beta will be quite substantial. Stay tuned for more information soon.
