HOW TO UNLOCK CHARACTERS THROUGH STORY
The easiest and fastest way to unlock characters in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 is by progressing through the story. You'll have a few characters to start with, which in this game means you'll be playing with the Guardians of the Galaxy. You'll play through the intro mission and then be thrust into various locations in the Marvel Universe.
Complete the story missions in these locations to unlock another character for your team. Some characters will join at the start of the mission, some halfway and some only after defeating certain bosses.

Each battle has its own clear conditions and a rank of one to three stars upon completion. Defeat each battle to make your way through the map to the end. There are four grid maps that will unlock characters when you finish them.
Here are the four unlockable characters:
- Elektra - Beat final trial in the first Rift Grid after completing Chapter 5
- Magneto - Beat final trial in the second Rift Grid after completing Chapter 7
