In the Marvel Rivals files, dataminers have found a fight with a kraken and a new mode

Marvel Rivals' upcoming update, as discovered by reliable dataminer X0X_Leaks, hints at a new PvE mode featuring a boss battle against a kraken. While the kraken model boasts some animations, high-resolution textures are still absent. The dataminer showcased a size comparison within the game to give players a preview.

Separately, Marvel Rivals has detailed its major Spring Festival event, launching this Thursday. This event introduces a unique 3v3 game mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," awarding players a free Star-Lord costume. The objective is to score a ball into the opposing team's goal.

This mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, itself inspired by Rocket League. This similarity is noteworthy, given Marvel Rivals' apparent attempt to establish its own identity and differentiate itself from Overwatch. While the core gameplay is similar, Marvel Rivals' event incorporates a distinct Chinese cultural theme, contrasting with Overwatch's Olympic Games aesthetic.
