Gazillion has announced that the first wave of major updates for Marvel Heroes is available starting today. The update marks the biggest one for the game in the two years that it has been released.ย Todayโ€™s update includes a number of highly requested improvements for PC and Mac gamers.

โ€œWhen we moved from Marvel Heroes to Marvel Heroes 2015, it was to showcase just how much the game had improved since its launch โ€“ but itโ€™s had another year and a half of improvements since then, and with todayโ€™s launch of Marvel Heroes 2016, the newest additions make it even better,โ€ said Gazillion Studio Director Jeff Lind. โ€œWhat weโ€™re launching today is just the beginning of what will be the biggest year yet for the game. Our awesome community expects regular updates, and theyโ€™ll continue to get those โ€“ but itโ€™s the big content drops like todayโ€™s first wave of the Marvel Heroes 2016 initiative where the game will really shine. Youโ€™ll see these throughout the year, and the best announcements are yet to come.โ€

The most notable additions to the new update include:

The Advance Pack 3 includes seven new heroes and villains that will be released throughout the year.

ยทย โ€œSecret Invasionโ€ Story Chapter: Battle shape-shifting Skrull invaders, including the Super-Skrull and alien versions of Super Heroes, in this adaptation of 2008โ€™s Secret Invasion comic book event. Who do you trust? (A Fortune Card themed to the new chapter is also available.)
ยทย Controller Support: For the first time ever, play with the likes of Xbox Oneยฎ and Xbox 360ยฎ controllers, the Steam Controller, Logitech controllers, and more on PC.
ยทย Revamped Deadpool: The Merc with a Mouth has been part of the Marvel Heroes lineup since the beginning โ€“ and now with new animations, effects and nine new moves added to his power set, heโ€™s even better! (A new Zen Deadpool costume is also available.)
ยทย Playable Black Cat: Voiced by Jennifer Hale, just as she was in the 1990sย Spider-Man animated series, Felicia Hardy crosses our path as the gameโ€™s 55thplayable character.
ยทย Agent Venom Team-Up: Once Peter Parkerโ€™s high school bully, war hero Lt. Flash Thompson now hosts the Venom symbiote, ready to serve beside you.
ยทย Steam Achievements: More than 50 achievements for those who play via Steam.
ยทย Visual Updates: Starting with Captain America, Black Widow and Jean Grey, characters introduced with the initial launch of Marvel Heroes will be brought up to the more realistic visual standards of newer characters. Visual Updates for older character models will continue moving forward.
ยทย Leaderboards: The most dedicated players will be recognized, as new Leaderboards begin to be continually added. Tournaments and Seasons will grow out of this eventually, as well.
ยทย Mac version Out of Beta: Just like it sounds.

Gazillion also recently announced the Advanced Pack 3, which includes several new characters for the coming year. This pack will cost players $59.99 for the standard edition. A $79.99 edition is also available that adds inย four new Team-Up Super Heroes to be added later this year.

Marvel Heroes is available to play for free on Steam on the official website atย MarvelHeroes.com.

I am an aspiring journalist with dreams to make it to the conventions and play with the big boys of the game industry. When I'm not writing about games, I'm playing and enjoying them. Some say that I have an obsession, but I don't. I have a really expensive hobby.
