Marvel's Avengers Update 1.53

In case you didn’t know, Crystal Dynamics is dropping Marvel’s Avengers’ biggest content drop this November 30, when it makes Spider-Man available for PlayStation (PS4, PS5) gamers, along with the game’s first-ever Raid, and also the resource and gear changes incoming as well.

To help give players a better understanding of it all, Crystal Dynamics has released the Marvel’s Avengers Holiday content deep dive War Table! It’s a 12-minute video where players can check out the changes and new content incoming tomorrow, November 30!

Update: Crystal Dynamics has published a blog regarding the stuff discussed in the trailer

Klaw Raid: Discordant Sound

The new Raid, Discordant Sound, is end-game content designed to challenge the highest-level strike teams and is unlike anything you’ve encountered before in the game. As you and your friends descend into the mines within Mena Ngai, the Great Mound, you’ll face elite enemies and puzzles that will require serious coordination to progress.

Our story picks up directly after the events of “War for Wakanda.” Shuri, the newly appointed Queen Regent, informs Black Panther and the Avengers of a new threat that could destroy Wakanda. Corrupted Vibranium has infested the Great Mound and is spreading through the Wakandan jungle, heralding the return of the sonic monster Klaw. Our Heroes find Mena Ngai swarming with Klaw’s forces and a large sonic barrier blocking the entrance to the mines. Wakanda’s greatest warriors join forces with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to stop the giant Klaw from realizing his devastating vengeance against Wakanda.

Your strike team will encounter all-new enemies, environments, and puzzles never seen before in Marvel’s Avengers that will test your mind, combat prowess, and cooperative teamwork skills. You’ll have to delve into the Mound yourself to find all its secrets and earn its rewards!

Game System Updates

In addition to bringing players our first ever Raid, we’re also making some major updates to the game systems. For the first time, we’re raising the maximum Power Level (PL) from PL 150 to PL 175.

Shipments

Our brand-new Shipments system provides an exciting new way to collect and earn some of our coolest cosmetics. Shipments will contain a randomized collection of cosmetics and resources that update on a rotating basis, but you’ll be able to see everything in a shipment before you decide to spend your hard-earned Units. Best yet, opening 100 shipments in a cycle will guarantee a top-tier reward. Any duplicates of cosmetics you’ve already unlocked are converted into Fragments. Shipments can be bought with earnable Units, and you can earn a free one every day through multiplayer play.

Spider-Man

PlayStation players, assemble: Spider-Man is joining your roster! Our team has been hard at work crafting an all-new Hero Event for Marvel’s Avengers, exclusively for PlayStation.

In the Spider-Man: With Great Power Hero Event, Peter Parker partners up with the Avengers to stop AIM from acquiring technology that could make their Synthoid army unstoppable. Spider-Man forms a tentative friendship with Ms. Marvel and Black Widow while learning the new dynamic of working in a team. Our Peter Parker is a conscientious and cautious early-20-something Hero who is still adjusting to balancing his double life as Spider-Man.

Outside of Spider-Man and the Raid, there are new activities players can dig under as well, which should add some variety for heroes across the world. Once the patch is out, we’ll be sure to let our readers know.
