Marvel Super Hero Squad Online unleashes Earth's Mightiest Heroes in all their costumed glory! With the introduction of Ant-Man and The Avengers movie Captain America, Super Hero Squad Online is the first online Marvel game that allows players to assemble the original Avengers team consisting of Iron Man, Ant-Man, Wasp, Thor, Black Panther, Hawkeye, the Hulk and Captain America.

In celebration of the upcoming theatrical release from "Marvel's The Avengers," Marvel Super Hero Squad Online brings together a team of heroes to protect Baxter Plaza and Asgard from the mad trickster god Loki.  Meanwhile, the world itself falls into chaos, mirroring the very first adventure the original Avengers embarked upon.
