Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have announced that Marvel’s Avengers Expansion: Black Panther – War for Wakanda will launch on August 17. The free expansion will bring in Black Panther as a new playable hero, alongside new villains, a new environment, new missions, and more.
As it stands, this expansion is the end of the given 2021 roadmap for the game, so we’ll have to wait and see what’s in store for the future. Spider-Man will be coming to the PlayStation versions at an unspecified point in time.
A new key artwork and details can be found below. A cinematic trailer, screenshots, and details were previously shared during Square Enix’s Summer Showcase event.
