Marvel's Avengers Ending Explained
With Captain America saved and the team finally reunited, the Avengers face MODOK for a final battle. Earth's Mightiest Heroes are using their most powerful abilities to take down MODOK, but there was apparently more going on below the surface than they anticipated. A giant figure rises from the water below, taking the team by surprise. Only Thor is able to recognize the giant for what he is: a Kree Sentry.
MODOK can apparently control the Sentinel, so the Avengers must take it down. Despite the team's best efforts, the giant is too much to handle. Using laser beams from his eyes, the MODOK-controlled sentry pins Hulk and forces him to return to Dr. Banner. Kamala then has her superhero moment and uses her Embiggen power to defeat the Kree Sentry. She returns home and is scolded by her father, but he is understanding and allows her to continue her efforts as a superhero.
A post-credits scene shows Monica Rappaccini taken over AIM and created several clones of herself. As the new Supreme Scientist, Monica is keen to continue pursuing her goals even without Tarleton / MODOK. The defeated Kree Sentry is then seen ejecting a green object into the sky.
What is the Kree Sentry?
The Kree Sentries are giant robots built by an alien race known as the Kree to defend military outposts and depots. The Kree are a major part of the Marvel Universe, and the existence of a Kree Sentry on Earth in the game shows that the Kree not only exist in the Marvel's Avengers universe, but also that they are interested in our planet. and could appear someday. soon.
As to why the Kree Sentry was at the bottom of San Francisco Bay, it still remains a mystery. During the Avengers campaign, Captain America reveals that he himself destroyed the Terrigen Crystal Reactor because he saw enormous unusual energy read under the bay. Something there was reacting to Terrigen's crystal, and something happened to be the Kree Sentry.
What the Kree did on Earth remains to be seen, but it likely won't be the last we see them in Marvel's Avengers. The post-credits scene shows a green pod being ejected from the Sentry into space, and it's likely some sort of signal to the rest of the Kree forces. They'll likely show up and investigate what happened to their Sentry in a future game update.
What happened to MODOK?
MODOK was defeated by The Avengers, but there is no official confirmation of what really happened to him. After Kamala uses her powers to defeat the Kree Sentry, MODOK is seen falling from the giant robot and into the sea. MODOK's fate is left hanging. It might not be the last we'll hear from Tarleton. Since he was controlling the Sentry during the fight, it's possible he was the one who triggered it to send that green capsule into space. However, MODOK's purple electricity does not exist, so it is unlikely to be behind the Kree Sentry's signal.
What happened to Monica?
With Tarleton out of the picture, Monica Rappaccini has taken control of AIM. As the newly elected Supreme Scientist, she will continue her work and expand into new avenues like cloning and time travel. She even created several clones of herself as seen in the post-credits scene. Plus, during the campaign, Tarleton injected her with her own regenerative formula, meaning she's more potent than ever. The first post-launch stories centered around Kate Bishop and Hawkeye will show more of Monica after the events of the campaign, so stay tuned for those in the months to come. For now, you can work to bring her down in the Avengers Initiative.
