Square Enix and developer Crystal Dynamics continue to tinker away on Marvel’s Avengers, the online-focused third-person superhero adventure set adjacent to the world’s most popular movie franchise. While Avengers can’t claim that title in the world of games, there is a dedicated fanbase returning week after week to smash up AIM robots as their favorite heroes. To that end, Crystal Dynamics has revealed a few tweaks to how their limited-time events reward players, giving options for both the weekend warriors and those who just can’t get enough.

Starting with the upcoming Marvel’s Avengers patch 2.4, each event will have three different mission chains that players can take part in, each offering a different level of reward. Daily Mission Chains reward playing on each day of a two-week happening, while Minor MIssion Chains offer hero-specific rewards that can increase power levels effortlessly. Finally, Meta Mission Chains are the most rewarding, combining the missions from the other two chains and dropping some of the most powerful loot available in the game. These mission chains will be available starting with the Tachyon Anomaly event on May 26 and continue onto future events going forward.

In their post about the rework, the developers mention that they wanted to standardize event rewards so players knew exactly what they were getting into. By giving players a specific type of reward each time but also theming those rewards around the specific events, they can keep the theming of the prior model intact while also letting players plan out their superheroics with ease.

Dedicated Marvel’s Avengers aficionados will have plenty to do in the weeks ahead, and they have plenty to be excited about in the next patch. Following this event rework, Patch 2.5 will introduce Jane Foster as The Mighty Thor to the game’s playable roster. Aligning with the upcoming release of Thor: Love and Thunder to theaters, this female Thor will be another opportunity to gather loot and power up through the game’s various mission chains and story beats.
