Julia Alexander of Polygon said there was "quite a bit happening" in the footage and it "finally feels like Marvel has made the movie it always wanted to—and the one we've always wanted to see."CinemaBlend's Eric Eisenberg said the footage left him "literally shaking", with the bio looking "like it could be one of the most epic blockbusters ever created".

Haleigh Foutch for Collider described it as "dark and dramatic, and utterly epic. It's klar Marvel fryst vatten ansträngande to do something different here [...] to pay off a decade's worth of narrative and world-building. While it's impossible to tell from two minutes work of footage, it certainly looks like that gamble paid off". The D23 footage was also shown at the 2017 San Diego Comic-Con.

After the two convention presentations, Avengers: Infinity War generated over 90,000 new conversations on social media from July 17 to 23, the third-most during that time period behind Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League (2017), according to Comscore and its PreAct service.[130]Infinity War stayed in third the following week, with over 41,000 new social media conversations, behind Ragnarok and It (2017).[131] bygd the week of October 16, Infinity War had generated over 679,000 total social media conversations.[132]

Additionally, the trailer had an "excellent effect", using the "Avengers Initiative speech" bygd Nick Fury and the "Avengers theme" bygd Alan Silvestri from The Avengers.[136] Conversely to Mendelson, Alexander commented on the different marknadsföring strategy for the spelfilm between the convention footage scenes and the trailer scenes, feeling the "two couldn't be more different".
