Recently, a well-known Marvel Rivals leaker shared a video clip showcasing a new zombie Doctor Strange skin, sparking excitement and debate within the community. Fans quickly noticed this skin draws inspiration from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). While some players are thrilled to see more MCU-themed skins making their way into the game, others argue that these crossover cosmetics are priced too steeply. Interestingly, all MCU skins cost more than the conventional Marvel Rivals designs, regardless of their rarity.
With the game generating so much buzz, fans have been eagerly sleuthing for insights on upcoming content. A notable leaker suggested that characters like the Human Torch could soon join the roster as a duelist. Although NetEase Games has yet to confirm the frequency of new character releases, many speculate that a lineup of fresh heroes and villains may accompany the debut of Season 1.
The gaming world got another surprise when Hatsune_Leaku took to Twitter, offering a sneak peek at the zombie Doctor Strange skin. Inspired by Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the skin features a smooth, spectral red cape adorned with purple sigils. Moreover, when using certain abilities, dark hands emerge from Strange’s shoulders, enhancing the menacing vibe with smoke and dark energy. Additionally, hints from another leaker suggest the potential arrival of Squirrel Girl and Moon Knight skins in celebration of the Lunar New Year.
As fans buzz about the potential of a zombie-themed skin for Doctor Strange, the community has expressed a strong desire for more zombie versions of Marvel’s iconic characters. The big question remains whether this skin will land in the game’s shop or feature in an exclusive battle pass. Meanwhile, enthusiasts continue to comb through the game files, where a rumor about an Agent Venom skin has surfaced. As always, it’s best to take these leaks cautiously until there’s an official announcement, as game files might hint at possible futures, but nothing is set in stone.
NetEase Games is keeping fans engaged with a Winter Celebration event, offering a slew of free cosmetics. By taking on various challenges, players can earn a spray, an emote, a name card, a distinctive MVP animation, and the adorable Cuddly Fuzzlefin skin for Jeff the Land Shark. During the limited-time event, players can enjoy a new mode where teams battle to coat the map in colored frost. Participants play as Jeff, swimming around and deftly spraying frost while interacting with opponents and allies. With so many activities and promises of exciting new content, Marvel Rivals undeniably has its community eagerly looking forward to what’s next for this beloved hero shooter.
