Are you a Ravensburger games fan and a Venom fan? It’s your time to shine this fall. The company recently announced a new Marvel Villainous expansion pack, We Are Venom.
The new expansion will be the first to add a single playable character to the game. If you choose Venom to play Marvel Villainous, your mission will be to permanently merge with Spider-Man by adding symbiote tokens to his hero card.
Venom’s in-game allies include Riot, Agony, Lasher, Scream and Phage. The new heroes attempting to stop him include Black Cat, Scarlet Spider, and Silver Sable.
Because We Are Venom is a solo-character expansion pack, you will need either the base game Marvel Villainous: Infinite Power or the stand-alone expansion, Marvel Villainous: Mischief and Malice to play.
“We’ve talked about creating a solo expansion for a while and realized that to make it work, we needed to pick a truly iconic villain. Venom is that icon,” Cassidy Werner, Head of Games at Ravensburger, told Gizmodo. “Not only has he been appearing in comics for decades, his style and attitude resonates beyond the comic fandom. He’s also one of the most-requested villains in our write-in poll, so we know players have been eagerly awaiting his addition to the Marvel Villainous line-up.”
Marvel is just one version of Ravensburger’s successful Villainous games franchise. (You can also play Disney and soon, Star Wars versions.) The games allow players to take up the mantle of their favorite villain and work to complete their nefarious plans.
If you add We Are Venom to Infinite Power, the symbiote will try to complete his master plan faster than Thanos, Hela, Ultron, Killmonger, and Taskmaster. Those with a Mischief and Malice set will go up against Loki, M.O.D.O.K., and Madame Masque.
Marvel Villainous: We Are Venom will release this October.
