Reliable dataminer X0X_Leaks uncovered hints of a new PvE mode in the upcoming Marvel Rivals update. Files reveal a kraken boss encounter, with existing animations but lacking high-resolution textures. The dataminer even showcased a scaled model of the kraken within the game, offering a glimpse of its potential in-game appearance.
Separately, Marvel Rivals detailed its major Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique three-player team mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," where players compete to score a ball into the opposing team's goal.
This mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, and by extension, Rocket League. This similarity is noteworthy, as Marvel Rivals seeks to establish its own identity, differentiating itself from established titles like Overwatch. While the Spring Festival event's game mode shares similarities with Overwatch's, the distinct Chinese cultural influences in Marvel Rivals' implementation create a unique experience.
