Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How many playable Marvel characters are in the game?

Answer: There are almost 200 playable characters in the game. That is, if you’re not counting the 42 downloadable content (DLC) characters announced so far. You can also save up to 12 custom characters using the game’s character creator.

A quick look at the character creator in the SHIELD Helicarrier’s Medical Bay (at the SHIELD logos).

Question: How to buy characters?

Answer: Should be the same as how it was in Lego Marvel Super Heroes. This can only be done while you’re in Free Play mode (it doesn’t work in Story mode). The “switching characters” button is the same as the “transforming characters” button (that you use to turn into Lego Big Figures like the Hulk). You can only buy a character that you have already unlocked, by holding the Triangle button on PlayStation / holding the Y button on Xbox / X button on Nintendo, to bring up the character menu. When you see that character menu, then select the black silhouette of the character you want from the grid and select “Buy” to make it available for you to play with in Free Play mode.

Important Note #1: Unlocking characters usually involves completing campaign missions, side missions, or finding their token hidden throughout the Manhattan overworld map and other hub areas. To find out how to get all the characters in the game, please look at our upcoming “Lego Marvel’s Avengers Unlockable Characters Guide” for the full details.

Important Note #2: If you’re not done with the Story campaign yet, and are not doing Free Play mode, then the only way to bring up the character menu screen to buy characters is by finding a SHIELD computer. Look for the blue Vehicle Call-In Points that are connected to SHIELD and that can even take you to the SHIELD Helicarrier.

Question: How to switch characters?

Answer: This can only be done while you’re in Free Play mode (it doesn’t work in Story mode). The “switching characters” button is the same as the “transforming characters (into Lego Big Figures)” button. Hold the Triangle button on PlayStation / holding the Y button on Xbox / X button on Nintendo, to bring up the character menu. – Keep in mind that on transforming characters you have to wait until they are halfway through their transform animation, and then hold the same button again for the character menu to pop up.

Question: How do I get into Free Play?

Answer: When you’re already playing the game in any level, press the pause button and in the menu that comes up you will find the “Go To Space” option. Select that option and you’ll be brought to a world globe map that shows all the Story levels you’ve already finished and that as a result are now playable in Free Play mode. You can even select what part of each level you want to start in for Free Play Mode.

Question: How to travel between Hub Worlds and Free Roam Levels?

Answer: Aboard the SHIELD Helicarrier flight deck, hop in the red & white colored AV-12112 that looks like the Avengers Quinjet, to fly to space. From there you can select where you want to go.

Question: How do you save the game?

Answer: The game will automatically save your progress once you reach the end of a level. If you want to save the game manually, you have to press the Start button get to the pause menu and from there you can exit the game, at which point the game should ask if you want to save and quit… say “Yes” to save.

Question: Is there a game-breaking glitch I should know about?

Answer: None discovered as of yet. – But be weary as the previous Marvel game had a platforming section where Hawkeye got stuck, leaving you unable to save.

Tony Stark / Iron Man Tip: This time around Iron Man can unlock all known suit variations from an in-suit selection wheel, so no need to keep switching to a new character if you need the Hulkbuster armor.

Brick Interaction Tips:
– You need heat-based attacks, like Iron Man (Hulkbuster/Mark 44)’s laser beam, to destroy Gold LEGO objects.
– Iron Man can destroy Silver LEGO objects by firing his rockets (just pick any of the many Iron Man armors). So can anyone who has explosive weapons or abilities.
– Super strength characters can destroy or manipulate LEGO objects that normal characters cannot.
– The “big-figs” like the Hulk and Abomination can destroy or manipulate objects in ways even different than characters with normal super strength. As well as do a super jump and climb buildings.
– Mrs. Marvel (Kamala Khan) can shrink, grow as well as bend & stretch (in the previous game she could build objects from black Cosmic LEGO pieces).
– Scarlet Witch has the special abilities to use Mind Control and Telekinesis. Which will come in handy when you want to move things and people around.
– You will need a Dig ability character to complete a lot of the challenges inside the hub levels. You can find Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan) in the Manhattan Hub edge of the park by doing her Crocodile Conundrum mission.
