King T’Challa will make his grand entrance in Marvel’s Avengers on 17th August, when the War for Wakanda heats up on PlayStation 5 and PS4. The campaign – which will be free for all players – will add the Black Panther to the roster of playable superheroes, and will add two new villains, a new biome, new enemies, and the Birnin Zana Outpost. That’s a lot! A War Table livestream will be broadcast at 10AM PDT on 16th August to introduce all of the new additions.
According to Crystal Dynamics, the release of the expansion will stretch the entire game’s single player suite to over 25 hours – especially when you factor in the Hawkeye and Kate Bishop content already available. God of War voice actor Christopher Judge will voice King T’Challa, as he faces off against nemesis Klaw.
If you’ve not played the game yet, then you’ll be able to try it out for free from 29th July through 1st August on PS5 and PS4. There’s also a 50 per cent sale on in the game’s marketplace, while XP is temporarily bumped by 400 per cent. It’s a good opportunity to grind, then, prior to the arrival of the Black Panther in a little over two weeks.

Does anyone care at this point?
Where's Spider-Man?
They truly botched this game's post-release schedule. If they had been adding content and heroes at a decent clip this whole time, I could see them having redeemed themselves a bit and found an audience. But it's a year out and they've barely done anything worthwhile. It's one of the most stagnant live service games around (at least from the outside looking in). They haven't done anything to convince me to support them.
Are they still going through with making it take even longer to level? I wouldn't mind going through the campaign again on PS5 or taking T'Challa and Clint for a spin, but not if leveling is even MORE of an obnoxious grind.
I thought the main game was great, but the extra DLC was essentially drab wave based levels. If they went back and did this like the main story I think people would be more interested. Instead of it being a complete grind.
Obviously looking forward to this, not expecting it to reinvent the wheel but should be a fun couple weeks or so!
Whoa!!!.... well, anyways...
Cool, did they ever make there money back?
@RawnDawn probably not. They are betting on big releases like Black Panther to hopefully net them some financial gains through microtransactions.
Imagine if they would have focused this in on the single player and not try to make is a cash grab GaaS with expansions like this on the regular. That would have been the Avengers game I would have bought day one.
@B_Lindz off topic but your avatar is terrific lol!! Love it!
If anyone's still playing this game, kudos to you. After the main campaign the game is just SO BORING...jesus! You start to see how clunky the combat is sometimes, just beating robots with that metal sound on the Mjolnir, it's so so so boring. This could've been the best game of 2020, this could've been a success in sales...but they ruined it and now no one gives two craps about anything that comes out.
I'm avoiding this game now until all DLC content has been released...already own the game so in no hurry.
