In 'NeXt Evolution', the plot revolves around something sinister lurking in the shadows, and the center of a diabolical plan is none other than the headstrong and powerful mutant Hope Summers. What do the villains want with her? You'll have to find out while trying to stop chaos from unfolding. This is the sixth campaign expansion for Marvel Champions, bringing that tense atmosphere of secret missions and tactical combat. For those who love crafting the perfect strategy, the expansion delivers two new playable heroes: Cable and Domino. The best part is that they come with pre-built decks (Leadership and Justice aspects, respectively), so you can jump straight into the action almost instantly. But don't think it'll be a walk in the park; you and your allies will have to face off against figures like Mister Sinister, Juggernaut, and the Marauders in intense battles. The content is generous, featuring five brand-new scenarios that can be played as standalone sessions for a quick game or linked together in an epic campaign, where victories and decisions shape the overall journey. If you enjoy cooperating with friends to take down overpowered villains, managing your hand to deliver the final blow at the right moment, and customizing your deck to maximize mutant powers, this pack is a must-have. It's the perfect blend of comic book storytelling and the tactical depth of an LCG, turning your table into a true Marvel battlefield. ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game to play? Yes!
