Premise
The Avengers and the Resistance must join forces when the forces of Hydra and the First Order unwillingly unleash a new powerful threat which puts both factions, the Earth and the entire galaxy at risk. The heroes must also contend with the destructive war between their both enemies' factions, which will likewise threaten all reality unless it is dealt with.

Story Plot
In Kamino, First Order scientists attempt to create Sith Clones in the same facility the Clone Wars troopers were created until they are attacked by incoming mercenaries from the Guavian Death Gang who had been hired by the Hutt's sovereign Rotta to steal First Order technology, the crossfire destroys all of the clones before they can awaken, except for one which escapes via a Escape Pod to unknown places in the Galaxy. At the same time, in a Hydra Space Station, Kree forces under Ronan the Accuser's command are battling a Hydra Group led by Arnim Zola in a attempt to retrieve "what belongs to the empire". Just as the Kree forces are close to victory, the space-station explodes, leaving only Red Skull, Zola and a Venom Symbiote (which retreats to unknown places across the Galaxy via a Escape Pod) alive as Ronan is confident that the Symbiote is no longer under Hydra possession.

The two Escape Pods (both containing the Symbiote and the Sith Clone respectively) end up stranded in distortions of Time and Space and collide with one another and the clone and the Symbiote merge together as one insidious entity dubbing itself "Darth Venom". Overwhelmed by a god-complex, Darth Venom ends up using his new upgraded Sith Powers to merge the two galaxies with one another, expecting that the planned battle between the two factions which created him will destroy all reality.

In the aftermath of the riot in Kamino, Rey and BB-8 travel in there to investigate, but their ship is hit by unknown forces and uncontrollably descends to Earth. Just as their ship starts burning up and is about to crash in the Avengers Tower, Spider-Man and Phoenix Princess quickly notice the situation and save Rey while Ms. Marvel saves BB-8 after he is ejected into a emergency pod. Rey and BB-8 are taken to the Triskelion until she recovers and the young heroes contact the Resistance using what remained from the ship. Meanwhile, the Avengers (consisting of Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, She-Hulk, Black Panther, Thor and Hulk) and X-Men (Wolverine and Jean Grey) reach the forest of Sokovia, where Zola's Hydra vessel had crash-landed, and investigate the wreckage after stopping Hydra's invasion on the town. After a short fight against Red Skull and Zola, the team is attacked by Symbiote-mutated synthezoids and deformed monsters until they are aided by Han Solo, Chewbacca and Finn, who arrive in the Millennium Falcon searching for Rey and BB-8. The Avengers agree to help the crew, but also need to look after the innocents who are endangered by (as Jean Grey predicts) the war which comes by. Jean, however, decides to travel to unknown parts of the galaxy to find answers about the crisis.

After being contacted by Hill over the situation, Rocket Raccoon and Groot venture into Crait to review one of the destroyed Hydra flagships and investigate the alien experiments Zola was working on. They witness Resistance pilot Poe Dameron and his allies having a shootout against First Order troopers who were mutated by Venom Symbiotes. Right after helping defeat the mutated troopers, Rocket and Groot win the Resistance members' trust as they agree to work together in finding clues about what is going on. Just then, they encounter Rey and BB-8 with the New Avengers in Tatooine, where the young heroes were infiltrating the palace of Rotta the Hutt, whom they suspect to have been responsible for the crisis they learned of. The Avengers (old and new) regroup with the assembled Resistance in D'Qar and agree to band together to protect the Galaxy while investigating the cause of the merging. They also need to contend with their respective enemies, who see each other as invaders and their new enemy's minions as the heroes sense that it is their war which threatens their universe's existence.

While going on a quest to find the answers for her questions, Jean ends up transported into Ahch-To (the Planet-location of the first Jedi Temple) and has an encounter with Luke Skywalker. They both sense their enemy Darth Venom and rush back to the Avengers and the Resistance to alert the others. From the A.I. Computer of the Dark Aster and the Supreme Leader Snoke respectively, Ronan the Accuser and Kylo Ren also learn of Darth Venom's existence and set out to "gather an army of Law and Order" to help defeat Darth Venom. Ronan convinces Doctor Octopus, the forces of Hydra and his Kree troops to form a brief truce to defeat Darth Venom and his "minions". Ren and Snoke also convince the First Order and the Guavian Death Gang to put aside their differences and work together so that they can defeat Darth Venom.

Rocket and Dameron deduce that, since Darth Venom is a Venom-symbiote host and a Sith Clone respectively, Darth Venom is most likely residing in either Kamino (where the old Republic Clone Factory is located in) or Klyntar (the home planet of the original Symbiotes). The Avengers and the Resistance plan to split up and search for the planets, but they all end up in the same destination when it turns out that Kamino and Klyntar have been merged with one another as a result of Darth Venom's powers, eventually deducing that this will be the fate of Earth and D'Qar unless they can stop Darth Venom. The assembled villains (Doctor Octopus, Kree and Hydra) and the First Order forces also arrive and confront each other.

Darth Venom reveals himself and singlehandedly manipulates both villain factions on engaging into their final battle. As the Avengers and the Resistance work their way to stop the chaos and Luke and Jean keep Klyntar and Kamino stable, Spider-Man and Rey venture through Darth Venom's lair to confront him. Doctor Octopus and Ren also arrive, but only to be manipulated into confronting each other and engaging into a final showdown until Spider-Man and Rey stop their fight. Just as they both try but fail to attack Darth Venom, Doctor Octopus and Ren end up realizing that none of both fight for Darth Venom and, with bigger help from Spider-Man and Rey, they overcome their rage for each other and the four battle their fused enemy. Doctor Octopus and Ren fail due to Darth Venom having absorbed their hatred for each other, but Spider-Man and Rey (having formed a bond of friendship since they first met) eventually combine their might to defeat Darth Venom, restoring the two worlds to their normal separation. As the villains are returned to their worlds (with most of them returning with no memories of the event), the Avengers and the Resistance share one last moment together before they bit of a friendly farewell and are all returned to Earth and D'Qar respectively.

In the epilogue, the Resistance troopers, inspired by the Stark Industries tech, have created flight exosuits to help in their future battles against the tyranny of the First Order. Peter and Mary Jane are contacted by Rey, who gifts them with their own BB-unit astromech droid as requested by General Leia and BB-8, to which the young couple is grateful for as they hope that the Avengers and the Resistance will team up again one day in the future, with Rey gently replying: "And we'll be waiting.".


 * In a mid-credit scene, Rotta the Hutt enjoys the First Order tech he paid the Guavian Death Gang to steal for him, but only for a short time before the tech explodes and sprays mud in his face as Bala-Tik and his crew take the blame; it turns out to be a sabotage by Rocket and Dameron, who later laugh at Rotta.
 * In a post-credit scene, Ronan and Nebula discovers that the Crypto-Cube the Sakaarians recovered during their "truce" with Doctor Octopus and Hydra is fake; the original one was recovered by Silk and delivered to Maz Kanata for safekeeping. The two eventually contact with each other for a friendly Dejarik match.
