As another week passes by without the addition of Kate Bishop or any other new content, Marvel’s Avengers is still patching bugs away and trying to keep the existing community engaged in the game. Although shrinking playerbases on some platforms are starting to cause problems for matchmaking, the Marvel-inspired looter isn’t down for the count yet. The team behind the game is still trying to address the most glaring bugs and set a better foundation for the add-on content that players have been eagerly awaiting with hopes that fans will stick around and new players will arrive when the work is done.
The original plan for Marvel’s Avengers seemed to indicate that a new hero would be arriving on pretty much a monthly basis. By this point players were expecting to have at least Kate Bishop in play, with Clint and possibly Black Panther arriving before the end of 2020. That’s clearly not the case anymore and now the hope is to receive just Kate and the AIM Cloning Labs content before 2020 ends. There is still no release date for that update and the latest patch focused more on bugs than new content.
RELATED:
One particularly interesting change from the new patch is an experience bonus for using Quick Match. This is great news for players still grinding through the game, but offers no benefit for endgame players who hit max level on every character (or at least their main) a long time ago. Unfortunately there is no alternative resource or currency reward, but endgame players have already been quite vocal about their disappointment, so hopefully the team is listening and working up some ways to satisfy that crowd.
