Fans of games tend to love high-quality product tie-ins, from The Witcher<\/em> figures<\/a>, through Mario<\/em> stuffed toys, to expensive limited-edition\u00a0statues\u00a0such as Resident Evil<\/em>‘s Ada Wong. However the\u00a0latest tie-in announcement from Intel has come under fire from gamers, namely for being extremely superficial. The products in question are the Marvel’s Avengers <\/em><\/strong>Edition processors, a tie-in for the upcoming game\u00a0of the same name, featuring\u00a0on certain unlocked versions of i9, i7, and i5 CPUs.<\/p>\n

Intel announced the processor range with a tweet and short promotional video,\u00a0showing the creation of the artwork based on Avengers characters from muralist Tristan Eaton, which features on the packaging. The issue gamers are having is that according to a leaked retail image from Twitter user Momomo_us, the promotional CPUs don’t actually include the game Marvel’s Avengers<\/a><\/em>, or potentially anything else to differentiate it from the regular products.<\/p>\n

While there is a possibility that the package will include other promotional items or trinkets, similar to limited edition versions of game releases, the very specific wording on the launch video suggests this will not be the case: “Intel Core Desktop Processors Featuring Marvel’s Avengers<\/em> Collector’s Edition Packaging.” A recent leak does suggest that a special in-game skin or skins\u00a0could be available for those who buy the CPUs<\/a>, but they appear to be very similar to regular in-game skins,\u00a0so are unlikely to make disappointed gamers happy. PC Gamer has also noted that the product details on leaked retail images show the processor specifications to be exactly the same as the standard KA unlocked editions.<\/p>\n
