As most comic fanatics know, Marvel‘s highly anticipated Avengers: Age of Ultron movie is set to land in theaters this week on May 1st and Marvel Puzzle Quest is celebrating by allowing players to participate in a brand new in-game event titled “Avengers vs. Ultron”. The event is the first Boss Battle event in Marvel Puzzle Quest where players go to war against Ultron, the murderous android who was accidentally given sentience by the Avengers. This event is the first of two that lead up to the film launch — each will run for 2 and a half days where players will battle against Ultron for the chance to earn special prizes if they successfully complete the mission.

Event features:

• Alliance Specific Leaderboards — Rather than competing against a Global Leaderboard, Boss Battles are Alliance specific. Each Alliance has their own score target representing Ultron’s Health Points to deplete, and players must work together to defeat Ultron before the event ends.
• Alliance Score Target Representing Ultron’s Health — Rewards are shifted out of Placement Reward and put towards completing the Score Target, mission completion drop tables, and Progress Rewards.
• Giant Central Mission Pin Featuring Ultron — When players win a fight against the Ultron pin, players contribute towards a Score Target, which represents Ultron’s total health.

With the movie so close to release we highly recommend you either download the update, or first time players download the entire game for free. One thing to note though is that there are in-app purchases to unlock additional content, so be on the look out for that just in case.
