Leaker X0X_Leaks uncovered evidence within Marvel Rivals' game files suggesting a forthcoming PvE mode featuring a boss battle against a kraken. While the kraken model boasts some animations, high-resolution textures are currently absent. The leaker showcased a size comparison using in-game parameters to illustrate the kraken's potential scale.

Marvel Rivals also detailed its significant Spring Festival event, commencing this Thursday. This event introduces a unique three-player team-based game mode, "Clash of Dancing Lions," where players compete to score a ball into their opponent's goal, and offers a free Star-Lord costume.

The mode bears a striking resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball, itself inspired by Rocket League. This similarity is noteworthy, given Marvel Rivals' apparent attempt to distinguish itself from Overwatch by generating original content. However, this inaugural major event arguably mirrors Overwatch's initial special game mode, albeit with a distinct Chinese cultural theme contrasting Overwatch's Olympic Games aesthetic.
