Marvel’s Avengers becomes more like fate with its next patrol mode

Marvel’s Avengers already has a few elements that were clearly inspired by Bungie Destiny 2’s hit space sandbox, and it’s set to add another similar feature to its world in the form of an upcoming Patrol mode. With a busy summer period before the game, the new Patrol mode will give players a large area to explore, which is not limited by the usual mission settings.

Players will be able to complete quests and earn rewards, but the new mode will only open in the Wasteland area when it arrives. Introduced in the recent Operation: Future Imperfect expansion, the Wasteland is a large, open post-apocalyptic area inhabited by mercenaries and the remnants of AIM’s robot army that were active during the Kree invasion of the planet. The Wasteland will be divided into three key areas: Kree Sentry Graveyard, Ruined City, and SHIELD Fortress.

The area looks like a perfect map for harvesting rare resources, completing missions, and spending time upgrading any Avenger of your choice, much the same way Destiny 2 works with its multiple levels dotted around the solar system. Marvel’s Avengers has other areas that could easily fit into this new mode as well, such as its East Coast, Pacific Northwest, and Snowy Tundra levels that rotate in and out of the game as a stages of the war zone.

Marvel’s Avengers is currently gearing up for a richer content future, as developer Crystal Dynamics has revealed the roadmap for the next few months. Black Panther will headline the War for Wakanda expansion as the next playable character in a future update listed under “Summer and Beyond” on the Roadmap, along with new play options. , cosmetic updates, and in-game events also added throughout the year. a renewed desire on the part of the developer to refine and further strengthen the game.

In the more immediate future, players can try out the Tachyon Anomaly Missions which allow any combination of four heroes and Red Room Takeover, which provides the HARM Training Room with a Black Widow-themed makeover. These two modes will arrive in the spring.

Don’t expect Spider-Man to feature in these plans just yet, as the PlayStation-exclusive hero won’t be going out to save the day for a while.
