Marvel Rivals' Spring Festival event kicks off this Thursday! Get ready for a free Star-Lord costume and a unique game mode: Clash of Dancing Lions. This 3v3 mode challenges teams to score a ball in their opponents' net.
While the gameplay might evoke comparisons to Rocket League, it bears a closer resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball – a similarly ball-based mode. This is a noteworthy comparison, as Marvel Rivals is currently outpacing Overwatch in popularity and needs to establish its own unique identity. Ironically, its inaugural major event features a mode strikingly similar to Overwatch's first special event. The key difference lies in the thematic presentation: Overwatch's event had an Olympic Games theme, while Marvel Rivals embraces a vibrant Chinese New Year atmosphere.
The wait is short; the Spring Festival event begins very soon!
