Marvel's Avengers players are finally just one short week away from getting their hands on the next playable hero in the game. There has been a bit of a content drought since Kate Bishop launched, but there is a ton of exciting stuff coming on March 18 that may get some lapsed players logging in again.
Existing fans who are sticking with the game through the drought and staying engaged while they wait for the new Hawkeye to arrive on March 18 can entertain themself this week by grinding through the usual rotation with the arrival of Week #28 in Marvel's Avengers. Like fans have gotten used to, the weekly rotation of missions and rewards doesn't switch things up too much. Week #28 follows the established pattern and brings a handful of missions with rewards that will appeal more to lower level characters than the endgame players. That said, there is still some motivation for the hardcore players to work through this week's offerings.
The week #28 rotation in Marvel's Avengers attempts to deliver some fresh motivation to revisit existing missions thanks to guaranteed rewards for players who are willing to replay some of the existing content yet again. All of the challenges offer some unique challenges and require a bit of strategy thanks to special modifiers that players will have to adjust to. At this point, most players are likely very familiar with all of the different modifiers that the game rotates through and have hopefully figured out how to adjust their strategy to successfully power through the weekly grind without too much trouble.

Mega Hive
"The Mega Hive is a single-player chain of eight missions that tests your team’s might. Each week you’ll have a shot at completing the Mega Hive mission chain. When you defeat all eight missions, the Mega Hive mission chain is removed from the War Table until the next weekly refresh, when you can run it again with new modifiers."
This week’s modifiers include:
Resurgence: Enemy health regenerates after a short delay
Torpedo: Projectile damage from any source is greatly increased
Heavyweight: Enemy stun meters build at an increased rate
Turmoil: Significantly increased presence of Riotbots
Weekly Rewards: As you progress through the Mega Hive, rewards start as basic gear, resources, and small amounts of cosmetic currency. The more missions you survive, the more resource drops increase. As you near the final mission, you’ll see better gear and artifacts awarded more often, as well as increased chances for patterns/nameplates. When you complete all eight Mega Hive missions you’ll be rewarded with exclusive goodies reserved for this gauntlet, including a significant amount of high-quality resources.
That's everything that is on the table for week 28's Priority Missions, HARM challenges, and Mega Hive. Many endgame players are likely more focused on Tachyon Rifts at this point as they wait for Clint and other new content to arrive next week, but the HARM challenges are a nice warm-up for any player to work through once per week as long as new or rare comics are up for grabs as a reward.
