To unlock 164 of all 180 Lego Marvel Super Heroes playable characters, you basically have to finish the Story Mode levels and explore New York City’s open world hub. This goes especially fast if you have access to flying superheroes in between playing levels. — The spots at the bottom of the character select screen (which normally are invisible until unlocked) are reserved for for downloadable content (DLC) characters, which at first will only be available via pre-order, but are sure to be released in two paid Super & Asgard Packs* sometime after release (one for 8 Thor: The Dark World movie characters and one for 8 random heroes and villains). — The 12 last spots on the character select screen’s sides are for the custom characters you can create at the SHIELD Helicarrier computer.
* From December 23rd 2013 you can now buy the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Asgard Character Pack for $1.99, and the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: The Super Pack for $4.99. Both DLC packs can be downloaded exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC.
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: The Super Pack gives players more Super Heroes and Super Villains, plus new vehicles and races. Play as fan favorites Dark Phoenix, Winter Soldier, Symbiote Spider-Man, Hawkeye, Falcon, and Beta Ray Bill. Leave more damage with LEGO Big Figures Thanos and A-Bomb, and speed through 10 new races aboard the Spider-Mobile and Hawkeye’s Sky Cycle.
