Get ready for an epic battle, gamers! Marvel Rivals is about to drop a massive update, and it's time to assemble your team! But this isn't just any ordinary patch; it's a thrilling new adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
The Zombie Apocalypse is here! Prepare for an all-new PvE mode, Marvel Zombies, where you'll face the undead in a thrilling survival challenge. Starting on October 23rd, 2025, at 09:00 UTC, you'll have three weeks to prove your might. But here's the catch: PS4 players, you'll have to sit this one out due to technical limitations. Sorry, but we promise more inclusive adventures ahead!
And that's not all! A new event, Voyage to Astonish, will grant you exclusive rewards. Complete missions to unlock the Blade - Blade Knight costume and Peni Parker's Floral Frights Costume, absolutely free! This event is a limited-time affair, so mark your calendars for the same dates as the Marvel Zombies mode.
The in-game store is also getting a spooky makeover with new bundles:
- Jeff the Land Shark's Jeff O'Lantern Bundle
- Namor's Phantom Tide Bundle
- Jeff O'Lantern Ultimate Ability VFX
These offers are available for a limited time, so grab them before they disappear on November 21st, 2025.
But wait, there's more! Claim your free Pumpkin Curse Emote for all heroes from October 24th to November 1st, and get ready for the Twitch Drops! As the Marvel Rivals Ignite Grand Finals heat up, you can earn rewards just by watching. Collect viewing time to unlock the Loki tournament commemorative costume, emote, nameplate, mood, and emoji.
