Marvel’s Avengers update 1.50 is now available to download. This latest patch for the superhero brawler will show as version 2.0.4 on other platforms – you’ll need to install it before slipping into the attire of your favourite costumed characters.
Something spooky is certainly afoot as developer Crystal Dynamics looks to celebrate Halloween. From October 21, 2021, through to November 4, 2021, players can unlock exclusive rewards and purchase creepy cosmetics from the marketplace. Complete the main mission chain to unlock two nameplates and a new Thor skin.
Easily the most bizarre costume of the bunch is Captain America’s Capwolf outfit. Believe it or not, this character skin is actually torn from the pages of a Marvel comic – 1992’s Captain America #405 to be precise.
Although kind of cool and another great nod to the more obscure fringes of the Marvel archives, the real fright factor here is probably how much fans will have to pay for this new skin. We’ve already touched on the mad cosmetic DLC prices when Cap’s Infinity War suit was added.
It will also be a very long time before the community forgets Crystal going back on its word regarding microtransactions. Despite telling gamers back at E3 2019 that Marvel’s Avengers would never include gameplay changing DLC, there are no XP and resource boosters in-game.
