VIZIO announced today that they’ve teamed up with Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics to be the official HDTV and soundbar partner for the highly anticipated Marvel’s Avengers video game. VIZIO’s HDTVs are optimized for gaming thanks to their IQ 4K HDR processors as well as the ProGaming Engine.  Paired with a VIZIO soundbar, you’ll be ready to game.

VIZIO’s V-Series 4K TVs feature the new V-Gaming Engine that utilizes Auto Low Latency Mode and Auto Game Mode to optimize its performance when it identifies the gaming system signal. You can also step up to the latest M-Series, P-Series Quantum, or the all-new OLED models, which include a ProGaming Engine that supports variable refresh rate and support for 4K at 120 frames per second.

The latest models also feature fast response times and VIZIO’s lowest ever input lag. They utilize 64-bit image processing and offer HDMI 2.1 connectivity, plus eARC passthrough, using VIZIO’s IQ Ultra and IQ Active processors to adjust contrast at each individual pixel for more depth and dimension to the picture.

Bill Baxter, CTO at VIZIO had this to say about the partnership:

“Today’s gamers want to enhance their playing experience. When they combine a NEW VIZIO 4K TV and NEW 5.1 sound bar they increase their ability to WIN and raise their gaming position. We have created an entirely new lineup of 4K TVs with a dedicated gaming engine & immersive 5.1 sound bars that offer a best-in-class gaming experience. We’re excited to be the official HDTV and Sound Bar partner for the new Marvel’s Avengers game and to give gamers every advantage as they play the highly anticipated game upon its release.”

VIZIO, being the #1 sound bar brand in America, is staying true to its reputation with the revolutionary Elevate Sound Bar that truly elevates the sound experience with DTS:X and rotating speakers to boom sound vertically overhead. VIZIO’s entire line of soundbars will also produce dynamic and accurate sound to allow gamers to hear every little sound and react quicker, enhancing the immersion into the gameplay.

Crystal Dynamics Creative Director, Sean Escayg was quoted saying:

“We want Marvel’s Avengers to be a completely immersive gaming experience and VIZIO’s high performance takes everything to an entirely different level. The all-new VIZIO ProGaming Engine in their TVs will make you feel like you’re a Super Hero.”

Marvel’s Avengers is an epic third-person action-adventure game that features a rich single-player campaign as well as online co-op play. Players reassemble, rebuild, and customize their heroes’ roster to play an original Avengers single-player campaign. You’re able to enter the Avengers Initiative solo or online alongside friends to continue the expanding story. Marvel’s Avengers will release for the PS4, Xbox One, Stadia, and PC on 9/4/20 and will be available on the next-generation PS5 and Xbox Series X when those consoles launch during Holiday 2020.
