While unveiling a new high-tech headquarters, an explosion causes the Avengers to take action. While fighting off bad guys and tanks, Captain America jumps aboard a helicarrier to dispatch baddies. However, a massive explosion not only <strong>causes massive civilian casualties but the death of Cap himself.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After his death, the remaining Avengers are blamed for the tragedy.

Well, we don&#8217;t think so. Cap has died in the comics before and has come back. Also, it appears as though you do play as Cap at the beginning of the game, so we don&#8217;t think the game developers would create unique fighting mechanics for Cap, just to not have him in the game later.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-starred-link\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-starred-link__img\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2019\/03\/iron-man-192.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-title\">\r\n        <p class=\"sc-card-starred-link__title\">Which Avengers: Endgame hero are you?<\/p>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__button\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/avengers-endgame-hero-quiz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\">Take the quiz \u25ba<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__link\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/avengers-endgame-hero-quiz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<h2>Sorry Hawkeye, maybe later<\/h2>\n<p>In the game, you appear to play as Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, <strong>Black Widow<\/strong>, and Captain America.
