War for Wakanda Explained by Marvel’s Avengers Game Developers

Marvel’s Avengers DLC pack will characteristic War for Wakanda, the place avid gamers can combat as T’Challa, aka Black Panther.

Hannah MacLeod and Scott Walters, members of Marvel’s Avengers growth group, spoke with the web site Comic Book Resources and shared some particulars concerning the recreation’s scale and what they wish to accomplish by including Black Panther to the gameplay. When requested why they selected the character over different heroes, that is what they needed to say.

“I think the biggest thing that we wanted to focus on is that T’Challa comes with an entire nation. There’s a lot more to him that he wanted to get into in terms of Wakanda, and so we wanted to take the time to really do that justice,” says MacLeod. “From the story side of things, it was always looking at how the characters fit into the overall arc in terms of the Kree invasion, not just from a fangirl’s or a fanboy’s standpoint. We listen to the fans, and we have our own priorities there. T’Challa is just so iconic that everybody wanted to figure out a way to make it happen.”

As for the gameplay, how does it maintain its personal amongst so many different characters? Walters explains this in-depth. “In terms of his role in combat, T’Challa is very much about buffing and debuffing both players and enemies. He still has the light combo, heavy combo, range attack, heroics, etc. — on paper, he’s designed to be one to one in that sense,” he mentions.

“For those fans that really want to get the most out of Black Panther, though, you want to learn the nuance of the skills, the rotation in which to apply them, how to maintain all of those buffs and debuffs to be most effective. There’s also obviously a level of customization that we offer through our heroic upgrades to our mastery skill tree and through the gear perks to really tailor and fit T’Challa to your playstyle while still filling that specific role.”

G/O Media could get a fee
