Marvel’s Avengers Proves Black Widow Deserves Her Own Game

screenrant.com:

One of the biggest surprise standouts from Marvel's Avengers was how strong its depiction of Black Widow was, and it shows how good a solo game based on the character could be. While Marvel's Avengers' Black Widow has some superhuman abilities, compared to her fellow Avengers, such as Thor or the Hulk, she isn't that powerful. With that in mind, it came as a bit of a surprise to some players to see just how well her abilities in Marvel's Avengers stacked up to — and in many ways surpassed — those of her teammates, leading to many players to declare her as the most exciting character to play in the game. Although Black Widow's gameplay in Marvel's Avengers is impressive and a lot of fun, a Black Widow solo game could allow her to shine in a way that a team-based game never could.

While Marvel's Avengers struggles to get Black Widow's hair right when it comes to her MCU costumes, the game succeeds in getting her abilities right. In Marvel's Avengers, Black Widow's kit is comprised of an impressive blend of acrobatic melee moves, various guns and shock-based weapons, and even a bit of stealth. That last one is an important part of integrating Black Widow's history as an expert spy and infiltrator. Her ability to turn invisible in the game allows her to hide from enemies and grants her extra damage and critical chance while invisible. It also comes into play during her story mission in the campaign, where Natasha has to infiltrate an A.I.M. base to rescue Kamala Khan. Further to this, there are sections in her iconic missions later down the line that require she use her invisibility to sneak past automatic turrets.
