The much-anticipated Venom twerk emote has finally made its debut in Marvel Rivals, and as expected, it's causing quite the stir. Log into NetEase Games' hero shooter on April 1, and you're bound to encounter a plethora of Venoms shaking their groove thing. This release, perfectly timed with April Fools' Day, has led to a frenzy among players, especially since the emote is completely free to acquire. The combination of no cost and the festive spirit of the day has resulted in a veritable twerking epidemic across Marvel Rivals matches.
Even if you're not playing the game, you're likely to stumble upon clips on social media showcasing the creative ways players are incorporating Venom's twerking into their gameplay. Some players are using the emote to break the tension of battle with a quick dance, while others are organizing matches filled solely with Venoms, turning the battlefield into a twerking dance party. It's precisely the kind of chaos fans anticipated, and it's a joy to watch unfold.
Although released as part of April Fools' Day 2025 festivities, it appears the emote will stick around beyond the end of Season 1, so expect to see Venom's dance moves for years to come. Currently, even those without the emote are joining in to celebrate Eddie Brock's twerking prowess. Here are some highlights from social media and forums:
