That War for Wakanda Expansion is our biggest content update for Marvel’s Avengers so far and is available starting today for Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S! We put so much new free content in the expansion for those who already have the game, but today we want to talk about that specifically War for Wakanda‘s challenging new enemy types and of course our new playable hero: Black Panther!
When we created Black Panther, we started thinking about what the character is and what makes them iconic, trying to figure out how we would bring them to life on screen. The idea of T’Challa as an apex jungle predator led us to his pounce mechanic, his ability that sets him apart from the other heroes on our list. Pounce makes him pounce on enemies and push them to the ground. After the upgrade, Pounce will also work on larger enemies like Exos or Dreadbots.
T’Challa’s Intrinsic Meter is another mechanic that honors the character’s story. Successful blocking and parrying store kinetic energy in your suit – build your intrinsic meter – which you can unleash in a percussive blow that knocks off nearby opponents and grants you a damage buff.
Finally, Black Panther’s heroic assault ability is called Bast’s Chosen, which refers to the character’s spiritual side. When activated, Bast’s Chosen summons a ghost of the panther goddess Bast, which temporarily gives T’Challa her power. Its basic shape allows you to unleash charged attacks without depleting your intrinsic meter, but when it’s upgraded you can summon warriors from the ancestral level to fight by your side.
Ulysses Klaue has an army of mercenaries and machines on duty, so you’ll need to use all of these skills to defeat the new types of enemies we introduce War for Wakanda.
When designing new enemies for the expansion, our goal was to create enemies with less overlap in their combat roles and less overlap in the way you defeat them. In the content released to date, enemy encounters tend to turn into one-on-one brawls, and battling an adaptoid can often feel the same as fighting a lesser AIM grunt.
in the War for Wakanda However, we added mechanized scout crawlers that attack you in swarms and put a stronger focus on area damage than before. We have also added enemies in vibranium armor as well as enemies armed with sonic weapons. You won’t be able to defeat them like the enemies you have fought so far, but we will let you find the best strategies to defeat them on your own.
