Data miner X0X_Leaks uncovered evidence within the Marvel Rivals game files hinting at a forthcoming PvE mode featuring a kraken boss. While the kraken model boasts some animations, high-resolution textures are currently absent. The dataminer showcased a size-based approximation of the kraken within the game to illustrate its potential in-game appearance.
Marvel Rivals also detailed its significant Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique 3v3 game mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," awarding players a free Star-Lord costume. The objective is to score a ball into the opposing team's goal.
This mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, itself inspired by Rocket League. This similarity is noteworthy given Marvel Rivals' apparent attempt to distinguish itself from Overwatch by creating original content. However, this initial major event arguably mirrors Overwatch's original event, albeit with a distinct Chinese cultural theme in contrast to Overwatch's Olympic Games aesthetic.
