There's an upcoming Avengers game from Crystal Dynamics, and it will feature a "social", "shared" online play, and will resemble a "3rd person cover based action adventure game".
Earlier this year, Marvel announced that it made a multi-year, multi-game partnerhip with Square Enix, and the first product was announced as an upcoming Avengers game. Details about the game weren't revealed at that time, but now, it looks like we now have an idea what the it will involve.
NeoGAF user kirolak pointed out two job postings from Square-Enix subsidiary Crystal Dynamics for the upcoming Avengers game, which is still being referred to as "The Avengers Project".
One posting is seeking for an experienced Combat Designer, who will work with the rest of the development team to "plan, prototype, and build combat systems that directly apply to a 3rd person cover based action adventure game."
Another posting is looking for a "Lead Level Designer" position, focusing on level development. The posting refers to "fun and unique online experiences" and also asks for an understanding of "the social implicatons of shared gameplay", as well as referencing "various game modes and campaign."
Based on these details, we can say that the Avengers Project will be online, probably MMO-style, and it looks like the game will have a variety of modes and gameplays.
No release date has been announced for Avengers Project yet but it's expected to come out in 2018.
