Data miner X0X_Leaks uncovered evidence within the Marvel Rivals game files hinting at a forthcoming PvE mode featuring a boss battle against a kraken. While the kraken model includes some animations, high-resolution textures are currently absent. The dataminer successfully integrated the kraken into the game using its existing size parameters to provide a visual preview.
Marvel Rivals also announced details of its significant Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique three-player team-based game mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," where the objective is to score a ball into the opposing team's goal. The mode bears a strong resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, and indirectly, Rocket League.
This similarity is noteworthy, considering Marvel Rivals' apparent attempt to distinguish itself from Overwatch by creating original content. The Spring Festival event, however, utilizes a game mode strikingly similar to Overwatch's inaugural special event. The key difference lies in Marvel Rivals' incorporation of distinct Chinese cultural elements, contrasting with Overwatch's Olympic Games theme.
