Welcome to June! It's crazy how fast this year is moving, seems like we just did our big rebrand event!
June is a very important month for us, especially June 4th, which is the anniversary of Marvel Heroes going live! We have had pretty big parties to celebrate the last 2 years and this year is no different. We have some pretty big things planned!
Birthday Cake!
Like we did the past 2 years, Birthday Cake Slices will drop anywhere in the game! These slices can be used at the Special Event Vendor in Avengers Tower to buy some new anniversary gifts as well as some from previous years!
Cake Slices can also be obtained in the following ways:
- Daily Login - Get 50 slices just for logging in each day!
- 5 Power Up Loot Explosion - Collect 5 Birthday Power Ups anywhere in the game for an Anniversary loot explosion, including cake slices!
- Tournament - Starting week 2, there will be a tournament running for the duration of the event that awards points to players for playing different pieces of content in Marvel Heroes. This tournament will reset every 4 hours and grant cake slices based on your placement!
Vendor Items
Rather than restrict our freebies to logging in on a specific day this time around, we wanted to put them on a vendor to allow players not only the flexibility to play and get the items that they want, but also to bring back some old Anniversary gifts for players who may not have been around then, or in some cases - want another one! Some of the items on the vendor are limited to a single purchase(meaning you can only purchase each of these items once). These items include:
- Iron Man Mark II Team-Up
- Classic Captain America Team-Up
- S.T.A.S.H. General 39
- Free Hero Ticket
The rest of the items can be purchased as many times as you like, if you have the cake!
Some of the items on the vendor:

The final week of our 3-Year Anniversary Event has arrived, and alongside all the cake slices and event activities this week we have one last gift for you to unwrap!
Lucky, Hawkeye’s pizza dog pal will be granted to players who log in during the last week of the anniversary event to thank everyone for playing! For those who may be interested in bringing multiple versions of Lucky with you on your adventures, he is also available for 100 cake slices on the special events vendor as a repeat purchase.
As with the previous weeks of our 3-Year Anniversary this month, we also have the following event bonuses that will be active for the entire week:
A.R.M.O.R. Incursion
Cosmic Chaos
Danger Room Tournament - Simulation #77
A new Danger Room Tournament will also begin this week starting Friday, June 24th at 12:00 Pacific - Simulation #77!
The Danger Room was designed to prepare the X-Men against a variety of possible scenarios that they might have to face. This simulation’s objective is straightforward, but hardly simple - should Cable ever become the enemy, you must find a way to be able to stop him. As you can tell by the number… this has proven to be no small task.
This Danger Room Tournament Scenario is a solo, one-on-one encounter against a hostile simulation of Cable using the fullest extent of his psionic powers and advanced armory!
Both Epic and Cosmic versions of the Tournament Scenario will be available, with separate Leaderboards for each. At the end of the week, rewards will be granted to those that participated and have recorded at least one completion time on the Leaderboards, with better rewards for those that reach the top 50%, top 10%, and number 1 spots!
Times Square Terminal
With this update comes a brand new Terminal experience based on the updated Times Square introductory section.
Times Square is under attack by Ultron and his army of drones, and his goal is nothing short of total destruction of humanity. Fight through hordes of drones and his elite Iron Legionnaires to reach the final battle with Ultron himself!
The Times Square Terminal can be accessed from any Waypoint in the Terminals tab.
Travel Powers Update
With this update we are overhauling the travel power system so that all heroes have one dedicated travel power that comes at no cost during power progression. Here’s how it works:
All heroes will gain access to their dedicated travel power at level 10
Dedicated travel powers will automatically have 1 point placed into them at level 10 and cannot be increased beyond rank 1
Since all dedicated travel powers now unlock at level 10, some heroes’ power progression had to be altered to allow this:
Colossus - Steel Cyclone now unlocks at level 42 (was 10)
Deadpool - Superior Healing Factor now unlocks at level 8 (was 10)
Nightcrawler’s power progression had to be more extensively adjusted as part of this update:
Flash and Grab now unlocks at level 8 (was 10)
X-Slash now unlocks at level 22 (was 10)
Travel powers that had secondary effects in some cases have been adjusted for the new system now that they are free powers.
Colossus - Siberian Express damage scales with points in Osmium Champion
Ghost Rider - Ride damage scales with ranks in Spirit of Vengeance
Minor Changes & Bug Fixes
Power Up buffs that previously displayed over the player avatar’s head now only display when they are picked up for several seconds to fix issues where some buffs overlapped with others. Players can always view any active Power Up buffs in their buff panel in the lower right corner.
Known Issues
Squirrel Girl’s Sprint power is not using the correct animation. This will be corrected in the next update.
