Marvel Rivals' upcoming update hints at a new PvE mode featuring a colossal kraken boss, according to dataminer X0X_Leaks. While the kraken model boasts some animations, high-resolution textures are still absent. X0X_Leaks showcased a size comparison using in-game parameters to illustrate the kraken's potential scale.
The game also unveiled details of its significant Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique 3v3 game mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," where teams compete to score a ball into the opposing goal. This mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, itself reminiscent of Rocket League.
This similarity is noteworthy, considering Marvel Rivals' apparent attempt to establish its own identity separate from Overwatch. While the Spring Festival event's core gameplay echoes Overwatch's early events, Marvel Rivals incorporates a distinct Chinese cultural theme, contrasting with Overwatch's Olympic Games aesthetic.
