Avengers: War For Wakanda gets a new trailer, but no release date

The latest free update for Marvel’s Avengers, War For Wakanda, got a new trailer during Square Enix’s presentation at E3 this year. While the trailer didn’t reveal a release date for the expansion, it did go over what enemies players can expect to go up against in Wakanda.

In War For Wakanda, players will travel to the hidden kingdom to help Black Panther protect his city, and its stores of Vibranium, from AIM and its partner-in-crime, Klaw. The Avengers are called in once these forces prove too much for Black Panther to handle on his own.

The expansion will highlight Wakanda and explore Black Panther’s own story, but beyond that, it’s not entirely clear what kinds of missions or bosses will be added to Marvel’s Avengers with this expansion. A blog post from March did clarify that the War For Wakanda DLC would add new enemy types and include a power level increase.

Square Enix has been teasing the War For Wakanda expansion for Marvel’s Avengers for quite a while now. The release date for the expansion is currently labeled as “summer and beyond,” with no definitive date in sight.

Two other expansions for Marvel’s Avengers have been released recently. The first, Cosmic Cube, introduced a new villain, the Scientist Supreme. The Second, Wasteland Patrol, added Hawkeye to the game’s ever-growing roster of heroes and introduced a new mission type called “Patrol Mode.”

Marvel’s Avengers is currently available on PC via Steam, Stadia, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

We're living in something of a horror game renaissance as of late. Besides all the great games that have come out already, there are tons of upcoming video games like Directive 8020 and Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic that promise even more sleepless nights. Bloober Team has a long history with the horror genre, most recently delivering one of the best video game remakes with Silent Hill 2. The team's next project isn't another remake, but a new IP set in a new survival horror setting. Called Cronos: New Dawn, this next project shares a lot of similarities with games like Dead Space, but can it live up to the new standards the studio has set for itself? Let's see what we can discover about Cronos: New Dawn.

If you want to see the full lineup of games coming out, check out all the upcoming PS5 games, upcoming Xbox Series X games, and upcoming PC games.

Three players pose together in FBC: Firebreak.

It wasn't until late into the game that we realized Control was part of the Alan Wake universe. After its DLC and Alan Wake 2 solidified the connection, excitement for Control 2 rose to the level of other upcoming video games like Death Stranding 2. While we still don't have a ton of information about the true sequel, we are getting a strange spinoff in the Control universe in the form of FBC: Firebreak. This is Remedy's first fully online multiplayer game, but loses none of that creative and off-kilter edge the studio is defined by. The walls are always shifting in the Oldest House but we managed to sneak in and grab all the documents we could on this new game.

This is just one upcoming PS5 game, upcoming Xbox Series X game, and upcoming PC game that deserves your attention so check them all out.
