* The new Avengers roster appears in Captain America: Civil War, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and released on May 6, 2016.[34] In Civil War, the team is fractured into two opposing groups over the issue of government oversight of the team's activities; one group is led by Captain America and the other by Iron Man.

* The Avengers, broken up in the fallout of the events of Civil War, appear again in Avengers: Infinity War, also directed by the Russo brothers and released on April 27, 2018. In this film, they join forces with the Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), Wong (Benedict Wong), Spider-Man, the Winter Soldier, Black Panther and the army of Wakanda to stop the alien Thanos (Josh Brolin) as he attempts to claim the Infinity Stones. Their campaign fails as Thanos acquires all six Stones and kills half of all life in the universe, including almost all of the Guardians and several Avengers, leaving Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, and War Machine as the only surviving members of the team; Nebula (Karen Gillan), and Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) of the Guardians join the Avengers in the fallout.

* Avengers: Endgame was released on April 26, 2019.[35] In one month after the events of Infinity War, they discover that Thanos has destroyed the Infinity Stones to prevent anyone undoing his victory, leading Thor to decapitate him. Five years later, Ant-Man emerges from the quantum realm after being trapped there since the Snap. He joins the team with a proposition that they retrieve the Infinity Stones from the past in order to undo Thanos' actions using Lang's experience and Hank Pym's research about the quantum realm to devise a means of travelling in time. The mission is successful, though Black Widow sacrifices herself to obtain the Soul Stone. Hulk used the retrieved stones to snap again, this time with the intent of bringing everyone who was lost in the Blip back, but a past version of Thanos follows them back to the present and attacks the Avengers compound. The restored Avengers and allies appear in the final battle against Thanos, including Doctor Strange, Wong, Spider-Man, Scarlet Witch, Falcon, Winter Soldier, the Wasp (Evangeline Lilly), Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista), Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel), Mantis (Pom Klementieff), Black Panther, Shuri (Letitia Wright), M'Baku (Winston Duke), Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), Okoye (Danai Gurira), Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi), Miek, Howard the Duck (voiced by Seth Green), and Kraglin (Sean Gunn).

## Video and computer games

[edit]

The Avengers are featured in the arcade and console game Captain America and the Avengers (1991); Avengers in Galactic Storm (1995); Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (2006), its sequel Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 (2009), and Avengers: Battle for Earth (2012). The Marvel vs. Capcom games feature various Avengers members as playable characters. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order also features the Avengers as main characters.

The team is also featured heavily in the social network game Marvel: Avengers Alliance (2012) and the mobile app game Avengers Initiative (2012).

The 2013 video game Lego Marvel Super Heroes features the Avengers as one of the main protagonists alongside the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, Silver Surfer, Nick Fury, Phil Coulson and S.H.I.E.L.D. in the game's main story. The Avengers lineup in the game was closely based on the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of the team with its members being Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Black Widow, and Hawkeye, other Avengers members included Ant-Man, the Black Panther, the Falcon, Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, the She-Hulk, War Machine, the Winter Soldier, and the Wasp. A spin-off game titled Lego Marvel's Avengers was released in 2015 and stars the Avengers with levels based on various MCU films.

A first person Avengers action game was planned by THQ Studio Australia to coincide with the release of the first live-action movie in 2012. The game would have featured Iron Man, Captain America, the Hulk, and Thor as the main characters, with Black Widow, Hawkeye, War Machine, and Ms. Marvel appearing as unlockable characters. The story, loosely based on Secret Invasion rather than the movie, was penned by veteran comic writer Brian Michael Bendis. Though a fair amount of progress was made on the game, it was ultimately canceled after THQ Studio Australia was closed down.[36][37] In late January 2017, Marvel announced a joint partnership with Square Enix for a multi-game project, starting with a game based on the Avengers, with more information to be revealed in 2018.

The Avengers, while not making an appearance are referenced in Marvel's Spider-Man, particularly Captain America and Iron Man in Otto Octavius' bio. In addition their headquarters Avengers Tower appears as a landmark.

On January 26, 2017, Marvel announced that Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics will be working on an untitled Avengers project. On June 1, 2019, through Avengers' Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts, Marvel announced that the game would be titled Marvel's Avengers and the game will have a worldwide reveal at Square Enix's panel at E3 2019. The game will feature single player, and online multiplayer, with an evergrowing roster. All extra regions and characters will be free downloadable content.

Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Hulk and Captain America of the Avengers appear in Marvel's Midnight Suns as part of the titular team. Black Widow and Thor are mentioned. During the course of the game, it's mentioned that the rest of the Avengers are spread thin across the world, dealing with the Hydra forces acting as distractions.
