Vince Napoli, the lead combat designer on Marvel’s Avengers and main hero designer for 2018’s God of War, says he wants every hero in Marvel’s Avengers to play differently from one another.
In an interview with GamesRadar, Napoli said Avengers plays “very, very differently when you play with each of the characters… The personal mechanics are totally different. The way they play defense is very different… Widow doesn’t block. She’s not going to block attacks, she’s going to evade them. She’s going to use her grappling hook.”
