Marvel’s Avengers is getting its first character DLC in December

Marvel's Avengers hasn't exactly been in the news for the right reasons lately, but perhaps that could start turning around soon. This week, Crystal Dynamics finally announced a release date for the game's first new character DLC. 

‘Taking AIM' is the name of the first Avengers expansion, which will bring Kate Bishop to the squad, in addition to a new enemy known as the ‘Super Adaptoid', which can copy the super abilities of Earth's mightiest heroes.

Here's the official description for the expansion: “In Taking AIM, Kate Bishop, master archer and skilled gymnast, resurfaces after her investigation of Nick Fury’s disappearance following A-Day leads to her mentor Clint Barton (aka Hawkeye) going missing as well. As she unravels the mystery behind the sudden appearance of the time-warping Tachyon Rifts, she uncovers a twisted new plan from AIM, which pushes her to work with the Avengers once again.”

The DLC arrives on the 8th of December and is the first half of a two-part story line, which will introduce both the Kate Bishop and Clint Barton versions of Hawkeye.

KitGuru Says: The best thing Crystal Dynamics can do at this point is bring a roadmap to the forefront and get players invested in the future of the game. Perhaps a proper next-gen enhanced release could also get the game back on track. Did any of you play Marvel's Avengers when it came out? Would you consider returning for a specific hero expansion?
