Marvel's Avengers Dev Reveals New Perk and Artifact Details
Marvel Avengers was hit with a delay some time ago, but that hasn't stopped more information about the game to be released. Instead of releasing May 15th, it will release on September 4th, but Crystal Dynamics developers have still been hard at work creating the game. One developer has even taken to Reddit to answer questions about various mechanics of the game.
Vincent Napoli, the lead combat designer at Crystal Dynamics, had some comments for a Reddit post that tries to break down the Avengers overview video. Napoli hints at one of the mysterious items in the game, "Actually we have a bunch of pretty cool twists up our sleeves for how Artifacts stand out among other items. They are definitely unique."
Artifacts, gear, and perks will all affect character stats and abilities, but in what sense is still unanswered. Napoli raises some excitement about the perk system, saying, "Most of those perks were early tests. A lot of work has been done to overhaul that system, but there are easily 100+ unique perks for gear alone. Perks are also exclusive to the slot item and perk slot on the items themselves." It seems that there will be a very deep system for gear and perks that'll feature different ways for Marvel's Avengers players to customize their hero.
Since the announcement of Marvel Avengers, many changes have been made to the game, and it is possible that even more changes will be made. Napoli's comments indicate that there is an even more robust system since the release of the overview video. Napoli has reaffirmed that there is more in store for Marvel Avengers than meets the eye. As the release date closes in, expect more updates on the game mechanics.
Marvel's Avengers releases September 4th on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
