Now Playing: Square Enix Presents Livestream (Spring 2021)
whisks away the Avengers to the Frozen Tundra, where a Cosmic Cube is being constructed. Crystal Dynamics describes the villain fight as a "totally new experience," which will certainly be welcome to players that have been repeating the same kind of boss fight for months now.
Although they don't have a release window yet, Crystal Dynamics is also working on two Omega-Level Threat missions. The studio says these will be released "as soon as possible." These missions are focused specifically on multiplayer and demand coordination. The first of these, titled Resolution, is a fight against the Super Adaptoid and will reward Super Adaptoid gear.
The second, Cloning Labs, is a four-player mission and will be the longest mission in the game upon release. The climactic fight is against four Abomination clones.

In the teaser, a voice can be heard delivering a reply to Monica Rappaccini, better known in the game as the villain Scientist Supreme. The person says that she has the men and the tech, and that he will lend a hand with a full-scale invasion to acquire Vibranium.
The environment being shown on screen is Wakanda and the voice is revealed to be belonging to Ulysses Klaw, another Marvel villain. Black Panther is shown landing in a heroic pose, before standing up to survey Wakanda and saying, "Avengers, with me." The expansion doesn't have a specific release date and is only listed as "coming later this year."
