Magneto has arrived in Marvel: Avengers Alliance, and he’s up to no good

Keep an eye on the iron count in your blood, Marvel fans: Magneto has arrived in the latest chapter of the hit Facebook game Marvel: Avengers Alliance. All we can say is, “Welcome to die!”

Magneto debuts in chapter 11 of Playdom’s social RPG and makes life in New York City even more complicated than usual by sparking civil war between the Mutants and the terrorist organization HYDRA. In fact, chapter 11 also lets you kick around the Red Skull for the very first time.

If you think you have what it takes to join up with SHIELD (you probably don’t, but your mom thinks you do, so that should be good enough), visit Playdom.com or visit the Facebook page for Marvel: Avengers Alliance.
