Chapter 1
In the barren and dystopian streets of a New York City, citizens are heavily monitored and troops cover every block. Hawkeye is talking to an ambigious Avengers team covered in dark.

He arrives at a junkyard, where a gang has gathered. In the center, they keep Tony Stark tied to a chair. The team has to silently take out the gang members before their presence finally becomes known to the entire gang. After defeating them, the team confronts the leader, Crossbones. After defeating him, Hawkeye unties Stark. Security forces begin to close in on them both. Stark is unable to stand, seemingly drugged by his captors. the team carries him and eventually the security forces lose track of them. He lifts a manhole and goes down into the sewers with Stark. More troops follow into the sewers, this time on hovering vehicles. After defeating them, the team makes it to the base of operations for the fractured and demoralized Avengers. All of the members include Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, Black Widow, Wasp, Yellowjacket, and Hawkeye.

Stark tells the team that Kang the Conqueror is giving amnesty to anyone who can turn in heroes to be imprisoned by his forces. The team in turn provides him with his crude Mark 1 suit which is removed from any network, thus allowing them to remain off the radar. The team concocts a plan for Bruce banner to transform into the Hulk and knock out Thor before delivering him to Kang at his base in New York City. Meanwhile, the Avengers will infiltrate the base.

Chapter 2
Now you can choose your hero as well as the team to execute the plan, with of course the exception of Thor and Hulk. Those you do not choose for the mission will stay at the base in case things go awry. The plan initially goes smoothly,. The Hulk knocks out Thor and arrives at the base. The Avengers team slowly infiltrates the base, taking out Kang's various troops and security systems. The Hulk discovers that Kang is nowhere to be found. Instead, he is using Vision as a conduit to rule the time period. The Hulk decides to go against the original plan and attacks Kang's forces, making the entire mission go sideways. The rest of the team arrives on the scene and works quickly to free Vision. Vision is killed by Kang's forces before he can be freed. The team manage to escape with their lives back to their base in the sewers.

Chapter 2
Bruce Banner is verbally attacked by Tony Stark, who blames him for the mission's failure. Wonder Man doubts the plan's viability in the first place. The team changes course. Stark asks Captain America if he knows if Nick Fury had any fail safe plans for a situation like this, and if so, where were they located. Captain America says Nick Fury had a hidden safehouse located in the Savage Land. The team goes to San Fransisco to find Nick Fury's coordinates for the Savage land. A seperate team is formed again to infiltrate a hangar belonging to Kang's forces to provide a method of travel.

After taking off with an aircraft, they arrive in San Francisco and are surprised to see massive structures surrounding the city. They slip by into the city and find Nick Fury's coordinates. Arriving eventually in Savage Land, the team splits to scan the island. The player forms a team again here. The Avengers fend off against dinosaurs, humanoids with monkey-like traits named Tree People, and a tribe of yeti named Snowmen throughout the island. Eventually the Avengers all arrive at Fury's safehouse.

The team uncover a contingency plan of Fury's, in the case of an attack from the future, to use Doctor Doom's time platform, which is supposed to be in the safe house after Nick Fury had stolen it from Doom in the past, and go to the future to sever the attacker's connection to the past. However, it seems Doom had reclaimed it years ago. Tony Stark explains to the rest of the team that Latveria has been left untouched due to an agreement between Doom and Kang, which will mean that they will have to go to confront Doom to get the time platform.
