New content for Marvel Powers United VR of Oculus and Sanzuru Games continues to await us bit by bit. Also this week two new heroes, antagonists and new maps were released.
The two playable heroes Peter Quill aka Star Lord and the green-skinned Gamora join the Guardians-of-the-Galaxy crew for the raccoon Rocket Raccon. In addition to his laser weapons, Star Lord uses a variety of technical aids in combat, while Gamora uses her mighty blades Godslayer in close combat.
Opponent, the mighty mutant Magneto will face your heroes to make life difficult for them with his supernatural abilities. The antagonist from the Dr. Strange film (2016) Dormammu is considered one of the most powerful living beings in the Marvel universe and thus offers an enormous challenge.

Another content from Guardians of the Galaxy is the intergalactic mining colony Knowhere. The severed head of a celestial contains numerous valuable materials, which is reason enough to compete with them.
