Today's Stream of Marvel's Avengers Will Show Gameplay [Updated]
Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics will organize a stream today, during which we will be able to see some gameplay footage from the Marvel's Avengers project.
Update (co-op mode, MODOK and microtransactions):
As announced, the presentation of Marvel's Avengers was streamed yesterday. It consisted of several trailers and extensive gameplay fragments. The recording is provided above. It also showed the types of missions available in the game and a wide range of alternative costumes for superheroes, many of which are based on classic comic book stories. Each hero is given dozens of different outfits.
Modification of characters will not be limited to their appearance. With the help of equipment, artifacts and progression system we will be able to match the superhero to our individual style of play. In this way, for example, our Hulk will be able to be very different from the one controlled by our friend. In addition, each hero is to have three unique special abilities, which we will be able to change with modifiers.
People waiting for the game will be less pleased to know that there will be microtransactions in Marvel's Avengers, although for now it is not known what character they will take.
During the gameplay show it was also revealed that the main antagonist will be MODOK, i.e. a villain who gained superhuman intelligence through mutation experiments. The price for this was a deformed body, with a huge head.
The so-called War Zones were also an interesting element of the presentation. They are missions designed for a three-person co-op mode, but we will also be able to play them solo with our comrades controlled by artificial intelligence. Such challenges will be divided into three categories. Vaults will have a structure reminiscent of dungeons from RPGs and will offer rich rewards in exchange for their completion. In the Villain Sectors we'll be in zones full of classic super villains, and Iconic missions will enable us to play the famous adventures of the Avengers, which took place before the game's plot began.
