Spec Op 34: Marvel Avengers Alliance: Civil War II

Inspired by the upcoming Marvel Comics Event!

A new, powerful Inhuman known as "The Profiler" has foreseen a future in which Dr. Doom eliminates all Inhumans. The problem is, it has not happened yet.

With their future at risk, the Inhumans assault and capture Dr. Doom, setting the stage for a rift that divides our heroes. Can the future be changed by acting on events before they happen, and more importantly, should they even take action before anyone is at fault?

How far are you willing to go based on a prediction? Make a choice, and pick a side. One thing is for certain, S.H.I.E.L.D. will never be the same again.

Features

This is a split mission Spec Op. Players can choose to join the Pro-Predictive Justice Team or the Anti-Predictive Justice Team. Complete both sides to receive Blue Marvel and Thor (Jane Foster)!
