Update: Thanks to the reveal of Marvel’s Avengers in the 2019 E3 Square-Enix press conference, we now know where The Avengers are… kind of. Although Marvel’s Spider-Man (Insomniac Games) was created by a different studio than Marvel’s Avengers (Crystal Dynamics), and they are both published by different companies and are not necessarily set in the same universe, we hope the reference below ties the two games together, however unofficially. Check out the trailer below:
In the Marvel’s Avengers trailer from E3 2019 above the Avengers appear in San Francisco for the opening of the West Coast Avengers. In Spider-Man PS4, when you take a picture of Avengers Tower for the first time as part of your side quest to photograph different Landmarks, you’re treated to a short but important bit of dialogue from Spider-Man: “Avengers Tower, so cool! Too bad they’re never around to use it. They’re on the west coast or something. Probably surfing.” While we have no official confirmation these two games share the same world, this is a pretty overt connection. Spider-Man told us where the Avengers were in last year’s release, and now this Avengers game picks up with the team in that exact location. Hard to think that’s purely a coincidence!
