Marvel Powers United VR will be released exclusively for Oculus Rift on July 26 and brings the popular superheroes of the Marvel franchise into virtual reality. As the release approaches, the developers are gradually publishing new content as an appetizer for the VR adventure. Within the last week new playable heroes, new antagonists and two popular maps were introduced.
Oculus and developer studio Sanzuru Games continued to announce new content for the final game until the release of the VR superhero adventure Marvel Powers United VR. New information has been released this week about two playable heroes, two super villains and two new cards.
The two partners Hawkeye and Black Widow will be available as playable characters in the VR exclusive title in the future. Armed with bow and arrow, the Avengers shooter Hawkeye offers dangerous ranged combat options. Meanwhile, the deadly Black Widow can also go into close combat.
But to get a real challenge in the role of the mighty heroes, special bosses with their own abilities await you in the course of the game. Accordingly, the two dangerous antagonists Ultron and Venom have been released and will stand in your way in the battle arenas.
Ultron became a danger to all mankind until the Avengers finally destroyed him. But in the depths of space, the remains of the fighting robot made contact with a highly developed alien race. They gave him an even more dangerous body with additional abilities. The symbiote Venom is considered to be Spiderman’s antagonist and shines with supernatural strength and hatred for the friendly spider from the neighbourhood.
The Map Wakanda will not only be home to the athletic Black Panther but will also host the virtual battles of your superheroes for the release of the VR title.
Next to the fictitious African city, the Sakaar Arena from the Planet Hulk storyline moves into the game as a playable map.
Marvel Powers United VR will be released exclusively for Oculus Rift on July 26. Pre-orders are already open in the Oculus Store for 39,99 Euro. More announcements about additional heroes and villains will follow within the next few days.
