Season 8 of Marvel Rivals has today kicked off with the release of a substantial new update. With the latest seasonal shift to Marvel Rivals, NetEase Games is most notably adding Devil Dinosaur as the game’s latest playable character. Later on in Season 8, Cyclops will also be joining the game and will become the latest playable X-Men character. In the immediate future, though, a handful of major overhauls have come to the popular multiplayer game right now.
Downloadable across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms, the Season 8 update for Marvel Rivals is a pretty sizable one. In terms of new content, Devil Dinosaur is the most prominent addition to the game but has been joined by a new battle pass and new skins appearing in the shop. A new seasonal even, called “Devil Dino Hide and Seek”, has also begun and will last the entirety of Season 8.
As far as refinements to the existing game go, NetEase hasn’t made many major overhauls. The most notable changes to Marvel Rivals have come to the Blood Hunt and Path to Doomsday modes, where certain characters have received some tweaks to their kits. In the main multiplayer mode, Black Widow and Captain America have had two issues of their own resolved that were continuing to plague players.
