Marvel Rival Celebrates Spring Festival

Marvel Rivals' Spring Festival event kicks off this Thursday! Get ready for a free Star-Lord costume and a brand-new game mode: Clash of Dancing Lions. This 3v3 mode challenges teams to score a ball in their opponent's goal.

While the gameplay may evoke comparisons to Rocket League, it bears a closer resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball – a testament to the enduring appeal of this style of game. This similarity is noteworthy, considering Marvel Rivals' current trajectory. The game is striving to establish its own unique identity and differentiate itself from Overwatch. The choice to feature a similar game mode in its first major event is therefore an interesting strategic decision. The key difference lies in the thematic presentation: where Lucioball had an Olympic theme, Clash of Dancing Lions embraces a vibrant Chinese New Year atmosphere.

The wait is short; the Spring Festival event begins very soon!
