RELATED: Marvel’s Avengers Officially Adds Spider-Man As PlayStation Exclusive
For shoppers who purchase a physical edition that rewards the early access closed beta access, there are a handful of different systems they’ll need to visit and multiple codes to redeem before the beta is safely installed on their PS4 or PS4 Pro. Let’s run through how this should play out.
At this point, players select which platform their pre-order is for. Select PlayStation if that’s the case (especially if you want to play as Spider-Man…) and then you will be presented with yet another redemption code. Yes, there is a second code that is required. Players need to take this code and either redeem it on their console (this is the simpler option) or login to MyPlayStation and redeem it there. If the code is redeemed on the console itself, pre-loading the beta should be fairly straightforward from this point.
Players who decide to redeem the code on MyPlayStation since they are likely already on a browser window after visiting the Square Enix site just have once additional step to take. After the code has been successfully redeemed, head to your PS4 console. Going to the storefront and selecting the Marvels Avengers Beta will present users with an error message that says something like “You do not have access to this item because you have not pre-ordered Marvels Avengers.” Do not panic. Instead of access the download through the storefront, users who redeemed a physical edition code need to visit their games library. From here, players should be able to locate the Marvels Avengers beta and begin the download. It’s a little overly complicated, but that’s all there is to it.
Continue to check back for updates and guides throughout the weekend as we work through the beta and power up our heroes.
Marvel’s Avengers is set to release on September 4, 2020, for the PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One. A PS5 and Xbox Series X version will be released at a later date.
