Marvel Rivals' Spring Festival event kicks off this Thursday! Get ready for a free Star-Lord costume and a brand-new game mode: Clash of Dancing Lions. This 3v3 mode challenges teams to score a ball in their opponent's goal.
While the gameplay might evoke comparisons to Rocket League, it bears a closer resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball – a testament to the enduring appeal of this style of game. This similarity is particularly interesting given Marvel Rivals' current trajectory. The game has arguably surpassed Overwatch in popularity and needs to establish a unique identity. However, its debut major event features a game mode strikingly similar to Overwatch's inaugural special event. The key difference lies in the thematic presentation: while Overwatch's event had an Olympic theme, Marvel Rivals' event boasts a vibrant Chinese New Year atmosphere.
The wait is short! The Spring Festival event begins very soon.
