Marvel Entertainment and TinyCo have released a new trailer for Marvel Avengers Academy, featuring a first-look at the newly re-imagined Avengers as they will appear in the upcoming adventure / simulation title for moible devices. The game reimagines the Avengers as students navigating high school life, while protecting the world, and training as superheroes.


Here are the official character descriptions, released by TinyCo:

· Captain America – The living legend and natural born leader just might be the only mature person at the Academy, so he's a perfect fit to lead away missions and serve as Class President. But that doesn't mean he relates to his classmates. The guys respect him, the girls adore him, and Hydra hates him, but he's still trying to find his place in this crazy world, and even crazier campus.

· The Hulk – He's the ultimate Big Man on Campus, a gentle giant who just happens to be "the strongest there is." He does his best to learn and fit in, but this Academy wasn't made for invulnerable behemoths, so his anxiety and frustrations inevitably turn to anger and that's not good for anyone.

· Iron Man – Tony Stark is a billionaire. A genius. An inventor. And he'll be more than happy to tell you about all of his other talents. He's a charming, self-centered, ladies-man-in-training who wants to save the world, and make sure everyone knows he's the handsome, ingenious hero who did it. He brings Stark Tower with him to Avengers Academy so that he can work in his high-tech lab, relax in his high-rise hot tub, and remind everyone that he owns a skyscraper with his name on it.

· Thor – He's the literal golden god of Avengers Academy. An impossibly handsome, ridiculously strong, and unbelievably athletic exchange student who thrives on competition and seeks out confrontation. He's effortlessly popular even though he never seems to really understand his new Midgardian classmates, and ends up causing trouble just as often as he saves the day.

· Black Widow – She's on a single-minded mission to uncover the Academy's secrets, while avoiding her annoying classmates. Unfortunately, she has to trust people and make friends because she'll need help from her fellow heroes to find what Nick Fury is hiding, and defeat dangerous enemies everywhere from Asgard to right under her feet.
