Marvel's Avengers' Spider-Man plans still haven't come to fruition, but the developers say Peter Parker's arrival in the online team-up brawler is still on track.
The next big beat for Marvel's Avengers is the War for Wakanda expansion, which will introduce Black Panther as a playable hero and his home of Wakanda as a new spot for heroes to gather and undertake missions. As we spoke with senior game designer Scott Walters about Black Panther's hotly anticipated arrival in Marvel's Avengers, we took a moment to check in on Spider-Man as well - Walters couldn't say much, but what he did share was encouraging.
"Yes, we are still working on Spider-Man," Walters answered. "We planned on releasing him this year, and he's still on track for that."
At least Spider-Man's appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has already established a precedent for Peter Parker taking his sweet time to show up to those weekly Avengers meetings.
The developers of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy were encouraged to make deeper cuts into Marvel lore thanks to Avengers giving Kamala Khan a prominent role.
