Marvel's Avengers' Hawkeye Gets Comic-Accurate Time Runs Out Outfit

A new Hawkeye outfit is coming to Marvel's Avengers, taking heavy inspiration from Jonathan Hickman's 2012 The Three Avengers comic book issue. This upcoming cosmetic is just part of a much larger, ongoing content push within the game, with many believing that even more substantial Hawkeye content could be coming to Marvel's Avengers.

New content continues to come to Marvel's Avengers as it approaches its second birthday. Perhaps the most significant expansion in recent memory was the PlayStation-exclusive Spider-Man content drop, which frustrated many fans for a number of reasons, chief among them the fact that the iconic superhero was only made available for PlayStation users. Other major, cross-platform updates have introduced the characters of Black Panther and Hawkeye (both the Kate Bishop and Clint Barton versions), but most additions to the game have come in the form of new outfits or other cosmetics. Many players have been fond of these new additions, while others are more frustrated by the apparent priority that Crystal Dynamics has given to skins over more pivotal updates to Marvel's Avengers.

New skins continue to roll out despite these concerns, however, with the most recent example being the new Hawkeye skin announced by the Marvel's Avengers Twitter account. The contemporary outfit for the bow-and-arrow-wielding hero is modeled after his costume from Avengers Vol. 5 #35, in which Hawkeye and the rest of the Avengers band together to try to halt a universe-threatening event. The skin will be called the Time Runs Out Outfit and will be available to earn through the April 7 Shipment.

Although the skin is missing a few notable staples from its comic book equivalent (mainly, Hawkeye's bionic arm), it is quite accurate overall. Instantly recognizable elements like the chest emblem and sunglasses have been smoothly translated to the game, reminiscent of other faithful recreations like the Marvel's Avengers Spider-Man Infinity War armor. Fans of the character will likely also be pleased to know that they can unlock this outfit with earned in-game credits, rather than it being available exclusively through microtransactions.

As Marvel's Avengers continues to expand with new cosmetics, many players are likely wondering when the next big content drop will be coming. Fans have come to expect hefty, meaningful additions to their live-service games, so it will be interesting to see how Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix bolster Marvel's Avengers this year to make it more alluring and competitive with other live-service titles like Destiny 2.
