Publisher Square Enix has announced that the 'first public gameplay reveal' for upcoming superhero biff-em-up Marvel's Avengers will happen at this year's San Diego Comic Con.

The reveal will go down during a Marvel's Avengers panel taking place over the famous convention on Thursday, July 18 and will be hosted by Crystal Dynamics' Shaun Escayg, Creative Director on the game. 

The bad news is, for now at least, it seems this gameplay demo will be 'for attendees only' so only those in Hall H will get to see it for now, but of course there's always the possibility the footage might be released later in some form.

Marvel's Avengers was finally formally revealed at this year's E3 after a long gestation period (first being announced back in 2017) – you'll play as each of Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the aftermath of a catastrophic event called A Day. It'll be released for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Google Stadia and PC on May 15.
