Marvel’s Avengers was supposed to receive its last ever patch earlier this week, but it’s only gone and got another one. To be fair, Crystal Dynamics has released v2.8.2 on PS5 and PS4 to clean up a handful of remaining hiccups, and it deserves credit for returning to the well one last time in order to solve any outstanding issues. “We expect this to be the final patch to Marvel’s Avengers before the end of support on 30th September,” a spokesperson said.
What does the patch do, then? Well, it’s definitely clean-up stuff, largely related to a handful of issues that emerged when the developer made all of the game’s post-release content free. We’ve included the patch notes below:
- Update 2.8.2 addresses the issue preventing founders – any player who has earned an Achievement/Trophy prior to April 1 – from receiving Iron Man’s ‘Variable Threat Response Battle Suit.’
- Some players aren’t able to receive this Founders’ Gift if they migrated from PS4 to PS5 and didn’t earn any Trophies before April 1. Update 2.8.2 offers this workaround:
- Load the PS4 version of Marvel’s Avengers, and equip the Variable Threat Response Battle Suit. Then, migrate your PS4 save to PS5. If you do this, the next time you log in on the PS5 version, the Outfit will be unlocked.
- Some players aren’t able to receive this Founders’ Gift if they migrated from PS4 to PS5 and didn’t earn any Trophies before April 1. Update 2.8.2 offers this workaround:
- We have removed all Hero Card-related objectives to fix the issue where Update 2.8’s removal of Hero Cards prevented the completion of certain mission chains.

Haven't touched this game since 2021. It was ok but to me the repetitive gameplay just killed it for me. Only so many times I can kill the same robots before boredom kicks in after all.
Set the way for the Suicide squad game… 🫠
They should add all single player missions easy accessible from a separate menu because all those great. The rest just a filler.
@ChakaL00T I still don't really understand the menu system, I've got to admit.
@get2sammyb as far as I remember all single player missons avaiable to play one by one, but sooner or later you need to upgrade your gear so you need to do "side missons" and those are really boring (for me) and repetative. That's why I stopped playing it. Also the menu and gear upgrades are way too difficult.
I loved Guardians of the Galaxy, if this game would be like that I could say it's nearly perfect
@ChakaL00T
Agreed. Guardians of the Galaxy was a hoot on PS5.
I played the Avengers demo, it was bloody awful
Played the entire single-player campaign, and the first DLC, when they gave everyone a free trial one weekend. I don’t really have much desire to go back to it, but if they put it on sale in the $5 - $10 range I might pick it up, to try out the now unlocked cosmetics and play the other story DLCs.
Just package all singleplayer DLC on a disc fully patched and your done.
@Reeneman I learned my lesson after paying full price for Avengers PS4.
You won't be seeing me buying Suicide Squad game until it's $20 new or cheaper. How the mighty Rocksteady has fallen...
