About Marvel's Avengers - The Definitive Edition
Marvel's Avengers - The Definitive Edition is an action adventure from Crystal Dynamics and Eidos-Montreal, starring Marvel heroes including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow and Ms. Marvel. There is a story campaign, then missions you can take on alone or in online co-op with friends, levelling up and improving your heroes as you go. It includes in-game purchases. It is rated PEGI 16. The makers recommend a GTX 1060 or RX 480 and 16 GB of memory, so a mid-range gaming PC runs it well.
What Marvel's Avengers - The Definitive Edition needs
In plain words: to play at all it needs basic graphics: built-in graphics on a modern processor, or an old entry-level card, and to play it well the makers suggest a mid-range graphics card from a few years ago, with 16GB of memory.
| Part | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Graphics card | NVIDIA GTX 950 / AMD 270 (min 2GB video ram) | NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 480, 8GB |
| Processor | i3-4160 or AMD equivalent | Intel Core i7 4770K, 3.4 Ghz or AMD Ryzen 5 1600, 3.2 Ghz |
| Memory (RAM) | 8 GB RAM | 16 GB RAM |
| Storage | 75 GB available space | 110 GB available space |

Will my computer play Marvel's Avengers - The Definitive Edition?
On most computers we find the graphics card for you. Add your processor and memory, and we will tell you if it plays, and what to upgrade if not.
A low-spec PC or a high-spec PC?
The gap between the minimum and recommended spec is modest, so a mid-range gaming PC gives a good experience.
On a PC that only just meets the minimum, the game will start and play, but on low settings: simpler shadows and textures, shorter view distances and fewer frames each second, so fast moments can feel less smooth. A 1080p screen is the sensible match.
On a PC that meets or beats the recommended spec, you can turn the settings up: sharper textures, proper shadows and lighting, more detail in the distance, and a smoother picture. A stronger PC also lets you use a sharper 1440p or high-refresh screen.
