How Scarlet Witch Could Change Up Marvels Avengers Gameplay

A line in Marvel’s Avengers recent DLC War for Wakanda hinted that the Scarlet Witch could be on her way to the game in a future expansion. Reportedly, when players approach Wakandan sorcerer Zawavari as Thor, the man will greet players as if they were Wanda Maximoff. Like the Black Panther, Wanda, better known as the Scarlet Witch, will be a staple Avenger in the MCU’s phase four, and her appearance in Marvel’s Avengers could prove to significantly shake up story and gameplay.

In the game, Earth’s mightiest heroes have re-formed after five years apart in order to take down A.I.M, Marvel’s Avengers antagonistic organization set on rendering heroes useless, propping up science in their place regardless of the cost. War for Wakanda introduced the Klaue Company, financed by A.I.M., on a mission to invade Wakanda and steal vibranium. The conflict ultimately brings the Black Panther to join the Avengers, adding him to a roster that includes Captain America, Ms. Marvel, Ironman, Thor and Hawkeye, among others.

The addition of Scarlet Witch to Marvel’s Avengers roster of characters would make her a standout playable character for a couple of reasons. All current playable heroes’ fighting styles vary, but are based heavily in physical combat, whether hand-to-hand or ranged attacks. Scarlet Witch’s powers lie not in physical attacks, but mental ones. Her powers come from Chaos Magic amplified by the Mind Stone, and Scarlet Witch’s telekinetic abilities would make her a formidable player in Marvel’s Avengers. Her appearance in the game would also have several story implications, and tease the arrival of exciting new villains.

Marvel’s Avengers: Scarlet Witch’s Powers

Scarlet Witch would add variety, and potentially significantly improve Marvel’s Avengers combat in a number of different ways. Her abilities allow her to manipulate objects from a safe distance, allowing Scarlet Witch to be a ranged fighter. She could also control attacking foes’ bodies, giving her fellow Avengers a safe window to attack. She also has the ability to get inside others’ heads and either control them physically or render them helpless by bringing up painful memories. This could manifest in Marvel’s Avengers in some interesting and dark ways that would make gameplay much different. Additionally, Scarlet Witch and her powers could significantly balance out multiplayer missions in the game.

In the comics, Wanda Maximoff is technically part of the X-Men, a mutant rather than a hero created by the Mind Stone. Marvels’ Avengers does include a group of heroes called Inhumans, who were given their power in-game by a phenomena called the Terrigen Mist. It’s possible that, should the Scarlet Witch join the game, she could either be part of that group, or could indicate the start of the X-Men coming to Marvel’s Avengers. Likewise, her appearance in Marvel’s Avengers would require the introduction of a villain with similar abilities, possibly opening the doors for WandaVision fan favorite Agatha Harkness to enter the playing field.
