Marvel Heroes 2015 to also celebrate the release of Avengers: Age of Ultron

Marvel Puzzle Quest isn't the only Marvel game hosting a special event for the theatrical release of Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Beginning tomorrow, Gazillion's free-to-play PC game Marvel Heroes 2015 will celebrate the new movie with "one of the game's biggest content releases" since its June 2013 launch.

“Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron inspired content – ‘nuff said,” said David Brevik, CEO of Gazillion and creator of the classic action/RPGs Diablo and Diablo II. “Actually…there’s lots to talk about. Overall, this huge release epitomizes just how dedicated this team is to creating plentiful, regular content that’s not only substantial, but also relevant to the times – this dedication is a big reason our Metacritic score skyrocketed from 58 to 81 in one year.

"We’ll continue this cadence for as long as our community demands it, be it through huge additions to content like this one, big new events like our recent raid based on AXIS from the comics, or simply our monthly character releases like Vision – with lots others coming soon! There’s already so much game here, it’s ridiculous – we just wanna make it even more ridiculous," he added.

In addition to the ability for new players to experience the entire game for free as any one of the core Avengers, new content for the PC action, role-playing game also includes character additions and revamps, movie costumes, new gameplay inspired by the film and more. New editions include:

• Play All Game Content as Six Core Avengers characters for FREE: At no cost, experience the entirety of in-game content as Iron Man (his first time as playable for free), Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye.
• Behold… The Vision! Vision joins as Marvel Heroes 2015’s 47th playable character.
• Nine Movie-Inspired Costumes: Captain America, Iron Man Mk 43, Iron Man Hulkbuster, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Vision and Scarlet Witch.
• Avengers: Age of Ultron Game Mode: Designed for advanced players. Team up in groups to defend the citizens of New York from waves of Ultron Sentries attacking Central Park, then take on Ultron himself at the ruins of the Avengers Mansion.
• Ultron Attacks! Random Events: Ultron Sentries appear throughout normal game modes, allowing players of all skill levels to experience action inspired by Avengers: Age of Ultron at any point during gameplay.
• Quicksilver Team-Up: Quicksilver fights alongside you, taking out enemies with his blazing speed via a newly revamped Team-Up system.
• Scarlet Witch Full Design Review: Many of her powers and mechanics have been redesigned, including new movie-inspired abilities and the addition of an extra-devastating Ultimate Power.
• Hawkeye/Black Widow Mini-Design Reviews: Hawkeye receives his 9-shot rapid fire speed loader thanks to his new quiver, and Black Widow gains new stun batons.
• Play as an Avenger, Get an Experience Points Boost: Just like it sounds.

The Marvel Heroes 2015 update will rollout on Friday, April 24, alongside the release of Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron in most European countries. The gameplay modes are scheduled to go live a week later, closer to the May 1st movie release in North America and the rest of the world.
