On Reddit, user Frank_2703 recently found a leak in the recentMarvel’s Avengerspatch. In the photo they shared, it showed the Black Widow costume page, but highlighted the character in her outfit from the 2015Avengers: Age ofUltronmovie. Most fans will likely recall that Black Widow is seen sporting her well-known cropped red hair in that film, with a new leather get-up accentuated with glowing blue lines. Though the Redditor only shared one image, the rumored leak sparked conversation between their fellowMarvel’s Avengersfans.
Some of the comments on the Reddit thread mentioned that the outfit may be part of the next month’s shipment or theregularMarvel’s AvengersMarketplace. However, another Reddit user named CD_NickE, who is tagged as a developer from Crystal Dynamics, quickly came in to lay the rumors to rest. They stated that the outfit was leaked by accident and will likely be removed as soon as possible. They also shared that fans should not make too much out of the leaked photos, as many details such as the in-game text and source are not final.
Nevertheless, if leaks and rumors like these pop up online, it shows that there are still a handful of players that are invested inMarvel’s Avengers. Hopefully both Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics do not disappoint the player base, and actually come out with a content roadmap for 2022 sooner than later.
