A datamine of the code for Marvel's Avengers on PC has discovered 15 more characters that will be added to the game as playable characters.

The release of Marvel's Avengers on PS4, Xbox One, and PC is now less than three weeks away. However, between the reveals of news about the game and its ongoing beta weekends, it is already the center of attention. As has often been the case for the game ever since its reveal trailer at E3 2019, it isn't always in the limelight for the right reasons.

That was the case not too long ago when it was revealed that in 2021, Spider-Man will join up with the Avengers. Sounds like good news, right? Well, it would be if Spidey was coming to all three platforms. Due to Sony's ownership of the web-slinger, Spider-Man will only be appearing on the PS4/PS5 version of the game.

There is good news for players of Marvel's Avengers on all platforms, and it comes in the form of a datamine. Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have announced that Hawkeye will be the first character added to the roster after release, however, the leaked info has revealed that there will be a lot more heroes joining the fun. Anyone who wants those characters to come as a surprise when they are officially announced might want to look away now.
