Original story (published on March 30, 2022) follows:
Marvel’s Avengers, Square Enix’s action, adventure, and looting game, has been available since mid-2020.
Since its release, the game has been surrounded by negative reviews and controversy due to lack of launch content, repetitive gameplay, broken promises, etc.
Over time, the game has received some updates to improve the situation, although the players still expect more from the developers.
However, the game recently received a patch that is causing issues for PS5 players. More specifically, Marvel’s Avengers is constantly crashing on PS5 after the latest v2.3 update (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11).
Marvel’s Avengers crashing on PS5 after v2.3 update
Most player reports on PS5 agree that the Marvel’s Avengers crashing issue happens during an un-skippable cutscene where the character Nick Fury is speaking and mentions the name ‘Clint’.
However, in some cases, the crashing does not occur during the cutscene described above, but during the campaign.

In the meantime, there is a potential workaround (1, 2) you can try to temporarily resolve the glitch. The steps to follow are shown below:
We will keep our eyes open for new developments on the matter to update this story.
