Fixes (All Platforms)
General
1. Fixed an issue where player names were incorrectly displayed in the Competitive voice chat overlay when “Hide Own Name” was enabled.
2. Resolved a problem where frame rate affected sensitivity, leading to unusual behavior.
3. Fixed an issue where messages containing quotation marks sometimes might fail to send.
Maps and Modes
1. Fixed several terrain issues that could cause characters to become stuck or clip into strange areas.
Heroes
1. Loki’s Deathly Illusions: Resolved an issue where Loki’s Ultimate Ability transformation could sometimes cause incorrect camera angles during Past Lives replays. The God of Mischief can now enjoy his dramatic exits without a hitch!
2. The Thing’s Battlefield Blues: Fixed a discrepancy in the speed of the Embattled Leap across different player views under poor network conditions. No more inconsistencies—Ben Grimm is back to leaping at normal speed!
3. Venom’s Aerial Anomaly: Addressed a bug where Venom could occasionally get stuck in mid-air after using his Ultimate Ability under poor network conditions. Now, he’ll burrow underground with style instead of hanging around like a confused symbiote!
4. Peni Parker’s Perdu Predicament: Fixed an issue where Peni’s Arachno-Mines would become invisible when brushing over Cyber-Webs but landing outside of them. Now, her traps beyond webs remain visible, ensuring enemies are aware of the sticky situation!
6. Spit vs Sea: Fixed a rare issue where if Namor unleashed his Ultimate Ability while still in the air after being spat out from Jeff the Land Shark’s Ultimate Ability, there was a small chance that it would do no damage.
7. Bucky’s Reload Rumble: Resolved a bug where the Winter Soldier’s Tainted Voltage automatic reload could fail to trigger after firing and immediately using his Trooper’s Fist ability. Bucky’s firepower is now as relentless as his mission for justice!
8. Hand Hook Confusion: Fixed an issue where if the Winter Soldier used Bionic Hook during the slow-motion match over moment, it could cause abnormal arm model display in the next round. Now, Bucky’s got his look—and his lethal arm—back on point!
9. Wolverine’s Claw Coordination: Resolved a rare discrepancy between his animation and effects when Wolverine executed the dive of his Ultimate Ability from the highest point. Now, when Logan strikes, it’s as precise and impactful as his adamantium claws!
Final Thoughts
A week earlier, we saw Marvel Rivals release the Galacta Cosmic Adventure event. This event, which will conclude on April 11, featured a special “Mrs. Barnes” skin for Black Widow and introduced Clone Rumble matches as a limited-time event. What’s particularly intriguing about this update is the Twitch Drops for the strategist hero Adam Warlock. These include the Adam Warlock Will of Galacta spray, nameplate, and costume, adding a hint of blue and purple flair to your gaming aesthetics.
Marvel Rivals has been one of the most popular games in the world, and it is great to see the developers continue to put effort into making the game the best experience possible.
