How to Start a New Game in Marvel’s Avengers

To start a new game in Marvel’s Avengers, aka restart the campaign, you have to delete your save file and start over from the start. On PC, you’ll have to go into the game’s folder and delete the save file manually; at least, that’s what players on Steam are reporting. At the time of writing, this is the only way to restart the campaign and collect whatever you might have missed in your first go-around. Along with everything else, because you’ve just deleted your save file. It’s… not exactly ideal, but it’s the only method right now.

I honestly don’t know why they made the game this way. Hopefully, when the game launches fully on September 4th, there will be some sort of patch that lets you replay the main campaign missions like a normal person. Until then, you’ll have to suffer the indignity of binning your save file and starting from scratch. This is going to be a point of contention among the fan base, to be sure, and it’ll only get worse when everyone gets access to the game.

Marvel’s Avengers Save File Location

You can find your Marvel’s Avengers save file in the following location: DRIVE:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Marvel’s Avengers. That’s, of course, assuming that you’ve used the standard settings when installing. If not, well, then it’s safe to assume that you already know where the files are, since you put them there. Either way, once you open the correct folder, delete your saved game, and start the campaign over.

And, well, there you have it, that’s how you restart the Marvel’s Avengers campaign. If you need further assistance with the game, check out some of our other guides.
