The latest Marvel Rivals patch is here, bringing a game mode, an event, and some vital balance changes.
Starting March 7, you can dive into Clone Rumble and Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure. Participating in one of them will give you a shiny new Black Widow skin, but the details remain a mystery for now. Here’s the full list of patch notes.
Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure event arrives with free skin
From March 7 to April 11, players can participate in a new event named Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure. The details haven’t been specified in the patch notes, but by the looks of it, players will complete different tasks depending on their dice roll, as if they were playing a board game. Rewards for finishing those tasks will be given out, including a free Mr. Barnes Black Widow skin.
Clone Rumble game mode launches
Ever wondered what it would be like to play as 12 Hulks? Or maybe you wanted to play tennis and have 10 Captain Americas bounce projectiles between each other with their shield? Well, now you can with Clone Rumble.
From March 7, players will be able to play an exclusive game mode called Clone Rumble. It will feature unlimited access to heroes, so your team and opponents can pick as many of the same heroes as you want. The only thing stopping you is your own imagination. The game mode will be available during the three upcoming weekends.

Various quality bug fixes
NetEase is also polishing the game by launching a few tweaks to maps and heroes.
Heroes
- Loki’s Blessing Blunder: Fixed a problem where if Loki and his doppelganger placed Regeneration Domains that overlapped and Loki walked over the overlapped area, then back into his own Regeneration Domain, it would lose its healing effect.
- Loki’s Disappearing Act: Fixed an issue where Loki’s UI would vanish after he transformed.
- Human Torch’s Meteor Mishap: Resolved a glitch where the Human Torch’s Flaming Meteor ability could sometimes trap hit enemies inside walls.
- Human Torch’s Persistent Pyro-Prison: Fixed an issue that the Human Torch’s Pyro-Prison wouldn’t promptly disappear upon his defeat.

Maps and overall changes
- Fixed an issue where switching from a Proficiency Deluxe Avatar back to the standard Avatar required a re-login to take effect.
