Marvel Rivals Leak Suggests a PvE Mode Could Be Coming

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Dracula, Fantastic Four, and Hints of PvE

Recent leaks suggest exciting developments for Marvel Rivals, NetEase Games' hero shooter. Season 1, "Eternal Night Falls," launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, introduces Dracula as the primary antagonist and adds the Fantastic Four to the playable roster. A new, darker version of New York City is also anticipated as a new map.

A prominent leaker, RivalsLeaks, claims a PvE mode may be under development, citing a source who reportedly played a pre-release version. Further corroboration comes from RivalsInfo, who allegedly discovered a related tag within the game's files. However, RivalsLeaks acknowledges the possibility of cancellation or postponement. Adding to the speculation, another leaker suggests NetEase is also exploring a Capture the Flag mode.

Ultron Delayed, Blade Speculation Mounts

The same leaker also reports that the villain Ultron has been pushed back to Season 2 or later. This follows a recent leak detailing Ultron's abilities as a Strategist-class character utilizing drones for both offensive and supportive capabilities. The inclusion of four new characters in Season 1 likely contributed to this delay.

Meanwhile, speculation about Blade's arrival is rife. Given Season 1's Dracula theme and leaked information regarding Blade's abilities, many anticipate his introduction shortly after the Fantastic Four.

The anticipation for Season 1 is high, with confirmed details and ongoing leaks fueling excitement among players. The potential addition of both a PvE mode and a Capture the Flag mode further suggests NetEase's ambitious plans to expand the game's content and gameplay options significantly.
