Dataminers Discover Kraken Fight and New Mode in Marvel Rivals Files

Exciting news for Marvel Rivals fans! Reliable dataminer X0X_Leaks has uncovered hints of an upcoming PvE mode in the game's files post the next update. This mode will feature a thrilling battle against a formidable boss, the Kraken. While the monster model already boasts some animations, high-resolution textures are yet to be added. To give players a sneak peek, the dataminer has utilized the Kraken's size parameters from the game files to simulate its appearance in a match.

In other thrilling developments, Marvel Rivals has announced the details of its major Spring Festival event, set to kick off this Thursday. The event introduces a unique game mode, Clash of Dancing Lions, where teams of three players will compete to score a ball into the opponent's goal. This mode draws inspiration from Lucioball, the inaugural special game mode in Overwatch, which itself echoes the mechanics of Rocket League. Although many might draw parallels with Rocket League due to the similarities, the influence of Lucioball is evident.

This comparison sparks interest as Marvel Rivals aims to carve out its own identity, distinct from Overwatch. While Marvel Rivals has seemingly surpassed Overwatch in some aspects, the introduction of a mode reminiscent of Overwatch's first event raises questions about originality. However, Marvel Rivals sets itself apart with a strong Chinese influence, contrasting with Overwatch's Olympic Games aesthetic. As part of the Spring Festival event, players can also look forward to receiving a complimentary Star-Lord costume, adding to the excitement and festivities.
