I’ll miss you, Ms. Marvel

Marvel’s Avengers is a recreation that ought to have run for a decade. A games-as-a-service title connected to arguably the largest IP on this planet, it needed to potential to be a gargantuan hit. I bear in mind seeing the Avengers Academy sales space at E3 and the way Sq. Enix went all out attempting to get folks enthusiastic about this recreation. And but, for a myriad of causes, Marvel’s Avengers didn’t resonate with gamers. This is the reason as we speak, just a little greater than two-and-a-half years after it first launched, the sport is getting its closing content material replace.

As defined in January, Replace 2.8 would be the final content material patch for Marvel’s Avengers earlier than official help ends later this yr. The patch unlocks {the marketplace}, including almost all MCU and non-MCU-inspired outfits, nameplates, takedowns, and extra to each participant’s Hero Card. Costumes which might be earned by way of gameplay or bought on the Beauty Vendor will nonetheless should be earned and bought. Anybody who has earned at the least one trophy or achievement earlier than April 1 can be gifted the Iron Man Variable Risk Response Battle Swimsuit, which turns Tony Stark right into a kick-ass Conflict Machine. The builders have additionally introduced all gamers will obtain this new Black Panther pores and skin.

When you have any unspent credit, these can be transformed to in-game assets when you replace the sport. Moreover, Hero’s Catalysts and Fragment Extractors have been faraway from Marvel’s Avengers and changed with a everlasting 1.5x multiplier on Fragments and XP.

That about covers the largest particulars of the Replace 2.8 patch, however there are quite a lot of small fixes you may examine on the official patch notes. For those who’re a fan of the sport, I’d recommend trying out that hyperlink as there’s a pretty thank-you message from Sandra Saad, the voice of Ms. Marvel.

If you wish to give the sport a go now that each one the microtransactions have been eliminated, Marvel’s Avengers is out there on Xbox Sport Cross and PlayStation Plus Further. As a reminder, official help for Marvel’s Avengers will finish on September 30, 2023. The sport will nonetheless be playable after that date has handed, however gamers shouldn’t anticipate any extra updates or patches past that date.
