Marvel Rivals Datamine Reveals Kraken Fight, New Mode

Reliable dataminer X0X_Leaks has uncovered hints of a new PvE mode in the upcoming Marvel Rivals update. Files reveal a kraken boss encounter, with existing animations but lacking high-resolution textures. The dataminer even showcased a size comparison using in-game parameters, giving players a glimpse of this colossal foe.

Separately, Marvel Rivals has detailed its major Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique three-player team mode called "Clash of Dancing Lions," a ball-based game where teams compete to score goals.

This mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, and by extension, Rocket League. This similarity is noteworthy, given Marvel Rivals' apparent success and need for original content to distinguish itself from its Blizzard counterpart. While the core gameplay is similar, Marvel Rivals' event boasts a distinct Chinese cultural influence, contrasting with the Olympic theme of the original Overwatch event.
