About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an epic showdown in Marvel United: Return of the Sinister Six! This expansion brings six of the Marvel universe's most iconic villains to your table: Doctor Octopus, Electro, Kraven the Hunter, Mysterio, Sandman, and Vulture. But don't be fooled, they're not here to make friends. The main draw of this expansion is the "Sinister Six Mode," where you and your friends will have to face all these evildoers together! Just imagine the chaos and adrenaline of taking on this whole crew at once! It's the kind of challenge that demands flawless coordination, tactical planning, and a good dose of improvisation. The heroes will need to use every trick up their sleeve to overcome the combined might of these villains, who, for the first time, understand the power of teamwork. Doctor Octopus, with his sharp intellect, has managed to unite even the most distrustful for a common goal: defeating the heroes. With the Avengers-level threat that the Sinister Six represent, the heroes' unity has never been more crucial. Prepare to show these villains that not even their combined strength is a match for the heroes when they stand together! This game is a fantastic addition for anyone who already enjoys Marvel United and wants an extra challenge, testing the players' teamwork skills to the fullest. It's an expansion that elevates the cooperative experience to a new level of fun and tension.
