The latest content update for Marvel's Avengers arrived this week, as announced on the recent Square Enix Presents Spring broadcast. Featuring Clint Barton, or "Hawkeye", the story picks up where the "Taking AIM" update left off.
Clint has been rescued by the Avengers, and has a vision of an apocalyptic future where Earth has largely been destroyed by an alien race called the Kree. We play as his future self for a time, searching for Nick Fury in an attempt to make amends for abandoning the Avengers in their hour of need. Meanwhile, present-day Clint and Kate find a way travel to that same future to find a way to prevent it.
Future Imperfect is about a two-hour affair that, despite being part of an unfolding story, is breezy and largely self-contained. Clint and Kate take the spotlight while the rest of the Avengers cast tag along in the literal sense. Given the length, it probably doesn't make much sense to have every Avenger have their moment, but it would have been nice if they had additional, observational dialogue. If you're like me, and not well-versed with all things Marvel, some plot beats might move along a bit too quickly to land
