All-New Content

New Map: Thebes

Two monuments of power, divided by a sea of sand and stolen devotion. Apocalypse's Pyramid and the Temple of Khonshu dominate opposite ends of the map. A rapidly weakening Khonshu desperately seeks to take back his stolen faith, but Moon Knight arrives burdened with a dark suspicion, demanding Khonshu answer a question before the Faith-Harvesting Engine. In this arena where ancient Egyptian ruins collide with primordial Celestial tech across dunes and oases, true villainy is about to be dragged into the moonlight.

Fixes and Optimizations

Heroes

•

Spectator's Spectral Screencast: Fixed an issue where if a player was spectating certain heroes after being KO'd, and the spectated hero was also defeated, it could cause UI anomalies upon the player's revival. Your visor is cleared, and the UI has returned from the grave!

•

Punisher's Turret Tally: Fixed a bug where the ammo count in the bottom left corner wouldn't display correctly while The Punisher was unleashing hell from his Culling Turret. Frank's arsenal is now perfectly accounted for, locked, and loaded!

Team-Up VFX Toggle

•

Based on community feedback, we've added a new settings option! You can now choose to enable or disable the Team-Up visual effects on your end (this setting only affects your screen; the effects will always remain visible from the perspective of enemies and teammates). This option can be configured universally across all heroes or tailored specifically within each hero's custom settings!

•

Weaponized Wardrobe: Addressed an issue where Angela, Daredevil, and Gambit had incorrect weapon assets equipped on some of their costumes. Their signature armaments are back in action and looking sharper than ever!

The Marvel Rivals universe is ever-evolving, and we have plenty more surprises and updates in store. Stay tuned to our official announcements for more!
