The latest hero in Avengers Alliance is not actually a villain. Death Locket has plagued Agents throughout Spec Ops 33 but Playdom has turned around and quickly made the robotic girl recruitable by SHIELD.
But as it was revealed in the MAA forums , Death Locket will be a covert task hero which means Agents will have to complete a series of tasks to get the chance to recruit Death Locket. The usual cost for covert task heroes is 90 command points.
UPDATE: The official patch notes have been released with the covert tasks.

Death Locket can be seen in the Team Page already, but if you want to see the latest hero's passives and attacks check out the screenshots below.
Death Locket is a blaster and comes with the following passives, Cybernetic makes Death Locket immune to a bunch of damage over time effects and give the hero a high crit resistance.
Recon AI is where Death Locket’s abilities really kick in as any attack used gets the Combat Data applied on the enemy. She also gains Combat Intel when she’s attacked and her Snipe attack gains Despair and Remove Debuffs.
Rapid Fire is Death Locket’s first attack and it applies two stacks of Radiation Exposure and applies Combat Data. This attack also deals more damage for each stack of Combat Data that is affecting the enemy.
Death Locket’s second action is a multi-function attack. The first part is called Combat Subroutine and it’s a quick action that removes debuffs on Death Locket while restoring stamina. It also gives Death Locket Combat AI, which gives the hero a follow up attack and a counter attack but uses up a stack of Combat Data to use.
Recon Subroutine is the second part of the multi-function and it restores stamina but it gives Death Locket Recon AI.
Flamethrower is Death Locket’s third attack and is an AOE action. It applies Burning but also Scorched if the enemy already has Burning. Superior Firepower is also applied which can randomly apply Melt Armor, Intimidated and Shell Shocked.
Death Locket’s final action is also a multi function attack. The first part is Mega Blast which is an AOE attack that exploits radiation and has Fatal Blow.
The second part is Snipe which applies Despair and removes buffs to one enemy.
