During tonight's The Game Awards event, Nintendo and Koei Tecmo/Team Ninja took the opportunity to reveal that new characters will be added to the Nintendo Switch-exclusive
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order.
The good news don't end there, since the developers released an action-packed trailer that revealed that Cable, Ice Man, Gambit, and Phoenix will be joining the game's roster as part of the
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order's second DLC pack.
According to the reveal, this brand-new X-Men pack, called
Rise of the Phoenix, will become available for Expansion Pass owners on the
23rd of December, and just in time for Christmas; or, rather, X-Mas. This new pack is also including a new mode called Danger Room, as well as additional Gauntlet missions for players to tackle.
It is worth reminding players that these characters can only be obtained by purchasing the
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order's Expansion Pass, since none of this content is available by itself; probably the only downside here, to be quite honest.
