As part of last month’s promotion by Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics for the game’s second anniversary,three classic MCU suits were made availablefor free. These suits are of Thor from the character’s first movie, Captain America from the firstAvengersmovie, and the Iron Man suit fromIron Man 2. This promotion looks to have been made available again up until October 8, and can be freely accessed just by logging into the game. TheMarvel’s AvengersTwitter account posted a video that showcases the MCU-inspired suits in action. These classic Phase 1 Marvel suits are perfect for players who want to be reminded of when the characters teamed up for the first time, and thanks to the free DLC, they can now simulate that experience in the game.
One of the most enjoyable aspects of superhero games are the costumes that developers implement not only from the source material, but also from original designs specific to those games. These cosmetic options are more than just a new look for fans, as they can transport players to the version of the character from a specific storyline, which may impact how those players traverse through the game. The upcomingGotham Knightscosmetic optionsare no exception from an aesthetic standpoint, but also made practically through its RPG elements. However, in the case ofMarvel’s Avengers, players do not have to worry about how a cosmetic will affect their gameplay, as they can enjoy the suit for what it is while engaging with the game in whatever way they see fit.
Players that missed out on the original promotion now have an extra two days to grab these suits for free, but players who already have them should not worry, as more superhero suit content is expected in the future. A recent leak suggests that there may becel-shaded costumes coming toMarvel’s Avengersin the future.
Marvel’s Avengersis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
