Marvel's Avengers game release time on PS4 and Xbox One in BST, CEST, EDT and PDT explained
Let's get the simpler of the two out of the way. If you are purchasing on console - PS4 or Xbox One - then Marvel's Avengers is rolling out by timezone.
As such, the Marvel's Avengers PS4 and Xbox One release time is midnight on September 4th. This means as soon as it's Friday, you can access the game in your region.
Note if you are buying the game physically on any platform, you need to download a day one patch to start playing. Though the game's many modes encourage co-operative play, the campaign can be played solo and offline after the patch is installed.

- UK - 5pm (BST)
- Europe and the Middle East - 6pm (CEST)
