Kicking off The Game Awards was a brand new trailer for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, showing off the game's upcoming downloadable content. As previously confirmed, the DLC, officially titled "Rise of the Phoenix," will introduce four new characters from the X-Men franchise: Phoenix, Gambit, Ice Man, and Cable.
Arriving alongside these new characters is the Danger Room, a new mode where players can fight against the AI or each other. Additional Gauntlet missions will also be added.
