Marvel Avengers forthcoming Spider-Man DLC will unfortunately not include any story missions, it has now been revealed. Previously, we have seen the likes of Black Panther, Kate Bishop and Hawkeye receive their own levels to fight, but it looks like that won’t be the case with our favourite wall-crawler.

Many fans assumed that Spider-Man would receive the same treatment as any other DLC, because that’s what we were essentially told. This is what the games senior producer, Dan Matlack, said during an announcement on the game’s Discord in September.

“Spider-Man is what we call an ‘event’ so he will have cut scenes and a story for sure”.

Unsurprisingly, some took that to mean that would be accompanied with story missions. However, Avengers gameplay director Phillippe Therien has confirmed that is not the case.

Instead of a short campaign with new missions, the web-slingers story will be displayed through audio logs and illustrated cut scenes. These will be unlocked by completing new Avengers multiplayer challenges. Check out this game play clip below which explains the DLC in further detail:

Spider-Man Hoping To Save Avengers Game

The delayed and PlayStation-exclusive superhero will finally arrive on PS4 and PS5 come November 30. Can he be the superhero to save the Avengers from their miserable fate?

Spidey won’t be arriving alone when we finally get to play as him either. Accompanied by a new Hero Event called With Great Power, he will team up with Ms. Marvel and Black Widow to try stop an AIM plan. Despite working in a team, he will apparently be debating whether he prefers working alone or not.

Despite the fact the Spider-Man content is a PlayStation exclusive, it has been revealed the game’s 2.2 patch will include content available on all formats. As a result, we will be presented with a Klaw Raid which takes place after the events of the War for Wakanda expansion.

“We want to spend our efforts on content that everyone can enjoy, so we chose to spend a lot of our energy on the Klaw raid that’s coming up at the same time,” Crystal Dynamics’ Therien said.

“Really that’s a simple decision for us. Spider-Man can play all the content, but then we release a piece of content that’s good on all platforms. Really that was a decision that’s been that way since the beginning,” he claimed.

Hopefully, the introduction of Spider-man will help the game escape recent controversy. It’s lifespan so far has been extremely lacklustre, resulting in poor critic responses and fan trolling. They’ve hardly helped themselves, especially with the addition of paid XP boosters, which they were forced to subsequently remove.

It comes at a difficult time for the games developers, who admitted that  Crystal Dynamics was potentially a bad fit for Marvel’s Avengers given its lack of experience with the games as a service model. We just hope they can deliver a somewhat satisfying Spider-Man experience. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just an enjoyable wall-crawling adventure.

If your looking for a bit more than that, well be sure to pick up a copy of Insomniacs Spider-Man. These games certainly are almost perfect, and don’t be shy in checking out how we ranked our top five Spider-Man video games.

We have known for some time that Spiderman is on his way to the somewhat lackluster “Marvel’s Avengers” video game by square enix, but now, at long last we have a release date.

As revealed in the most recent roadmap update posted to Twitter, Spiderman will Launch on the 30th of november 2021 as a part of the games next major event. That being said, this is only for PlayStation 4 and 5 players. PC and Xbox players will not see Spiderman enter the game due to Sony owning the rights to the character and Holding an Iron fist over them. Between the ever growing doubt of Spiderman’s Continued existence in the Marvel Cinematic universe and now this, Sony seems hell bent on Controlling Everything to do with the character.

The Event will be titled “Spider man: With Great Power Hero Event” (which really rolls of the tongue) and will follow Spidey as he uncovers an Aims conspiracy to Build a “Synthoid army”. It has also been suggested that Spidey will develop a close friendship with Kamala Khan Miss Marvel and Black widow, while simultaneously trying to keep his identity from them both.

Everything else about spider man’s addition to the game, including his appearance, is being kept under wraps but developer Crystal Dynamics.

Marvels Avengers has had a rough Time recently, with controversy over the selling of XP boosters and “Pay to Win mechanics” in the game, although as of yesterday it has come out that these are being removed from the game.

PlayStation 5 players will also get to see the sequel to 2018’s “Marvels Spiderman” in 2023, which will see Peter and Miles take on Venom.

It finally looks like the Avengers are starting to assemble in the gaming world, with Marvel Avengers arrival on Xbox Game Pass turning the games fortunes right around.

Upon its 2020 release, the Avengers team were greeted with a luke-warm reception. Fans were left disappointed with ‘convulated and uninspired menus with major bug issues’.

Broken matchmaking, reused environments and unimaginative enemies looked to make Crystal Dynamics action role-playing brawler doomed to stay in the unfortunate game category of ‘what could’ve been’. Even the release of post-launch content such as the War for Wakanda DLC didn’t look like it was going to pull the game out from the ashes.

That is until now, as it seems the developers decision to put the game on the Xbox Game pass is  paying off. Tony Stark and co have risen into the top 15 most played games on Xbox overall in the US since its arrival on the Game Pass. An impressive feat for a product which looked devoid of ideas.

However, this recent success should come as no surprise. The Xbox Game Pass has a track-record of helping to improve player numbers which means it should be no different for Stan Lees superheroes.

The big question now is whether Crystal Dynamic are able to transfer this new-found popularity into a long-term plan for the games future.

As previously mentioned, players were not overly impressed with what they were offered at first. Upon launch, Kataku reviewer Mike Fahey specifically criticised the games repetitive features and lack of content. He wasn’t alone.

“We need new content. New enemies. New game mechanics…The initial excitement over playing beloved superheroes has dulled, thanks to a lack of variety in late-game content”.

For a property of this magnitude, Marvel’s Avengers should’ve taken advantage of the Marvel hysteria infecting the globe right now. Instead, everything just felt a little too rushed. However, the signs that Crystal Dynamic can turn it around after this are starting to look promising.

The games above-mentioned War for Wakanda DLC and the upcoming Spider-man DLC look to add a lot more free content for players to divulge in- even if the latter is only available for Playstation users.

Crystal Dynamics also put out a recent and well-received next-gen update for the game on Xbox Series X.

Let’s just hope Crystal Dynamic will take  advantage of this recent success so all our Marvel gaming fantasies are properly fulfilled.

If you want to jump in on the all the action, Marvel’s Avengers is available now on PS4 and Xbox One here.
