This Week In Imports: The Avengers Takes a Stand

Since there are so few actual imports this week, we’re loosening up the definition a bit. Since it’s a Square Enix game and Square Enix is a Japanese company, let’s start with Crystal Dynamics’ new action RPG title: Marvel’s Avengers. The title features many fan-favorite Avengers, like Iron Man, Captain America, and Kamala Khan, and it takes place in a world where the Avengers have disbanded following an incident that destroyed most of San Francisco and the Avengers helicarrier. When Kamala discovers her powers and a conspiracy that seems to lead to the true culprit behind the original disaster, she decides to find the original members of the Avengers.

The title features hack and slash-style gameplay, but with a focus on cooperation between various Avengers members. Players are able to create their own versions of the heroes, such as specializing heroes into more attack or support-based sets. There’s also a variety of costumes to choose from, based on various Marvel comics.

A smattering of smaller titles are also launching this week in Japan. There is the latest game in the G-Mode Archives series of feature phone ports. Touhou Luna Nights is finally debuting on the Xbox One.
