Marvel’s Avengers update 1.58 is now available to download on all platforms. Also appearing as version 2.2.2, you’ll need to install this patch on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, or PC in order to access online features.
This the first major patch of 2022 with developer Crystal Dynamics focusing mainly on Discordant Sound, the first Marvel’s Avengers raid. This was added towards the end of last year, not only introducing a head-scratching slab of endgame content but a series of annoying bugs.
Marvel’s Avengers characters we want to see in-game
Update 1.58 doles out some welcome fixes alongside combat tweaks and other minor adjustments to improve the game on all platforms.
Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have said nothing on who they intend to add as the next playable hero in Marvel’s Avengers. It’s fair to say that, while he had some neat tricks, Spider-Man’s arrival didn’t go down well with fans. On one hand, PlayStation gamers were disappointed by the lack of a new mini-campaign for the webslinger. Meanwhile, those playing on other systems were still miffed at Spider-Man’s PlayStation exclusivity.
