Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced on Tuesday the release of a new free DLC for LEGO Marvel's Avengers that brings the cinematic universe of Captain America: Civil War to the gaming world.

The DLC features nine new playable characters including: Captain America, Black Panther, Iron Man (Mark 46), Agent 13, Crossbones, Falcon, Scarlet Witch, Bucky Barnes and War Machine.
