Hey there, fellow Rivals!
Buckle up, because we’ve got some juicy leaks about the upcoming Marvel Rivals patch, courtesy of the Marvel Rivals’ leakers @RivalsLeaks and @X0X_LEAK on X.
Remember, while these leakers have solid track records, nothing’s set in stone until the official patch drops on March 6, 2025.
The upcoming patch is set to address several hero-specific bugs that have been causing headaches for players:
Loki: No more disappearing UI after transforming. Mischief managed!
Human Torch: The flaming meteor ability will no longer trap enemies inside walls, aligning with the planned collision fixes.
Loki’s Regeneration Domain: Overlapping domains will now consistently provide healing upon re-entry—a significant quality-of-life improvement.
Punisher: His ultimate ability will cease firing missiles during network disruptions, ensuring smoother gameplay.
Hela: Fixed an issue where she could be launched upwards after using her ultimate. Additionally, she’ll now be properly detected near mission vehicles.
Wolverine: His ultimate no longer grants enemies unintended jump boosts.
Jeff the Land Shark: Resolved a bug where frozen spitballs could behave unexpectedly when his team-up ability was active.
Adam Warlock: If his ultimate fails near cliff edges, 50% of the energy will now be properly refunded.
Peni Parker: Addressed positioning issues when hit by Namor’s ultimate.
Beyond hero tweaks, the patch aims to enhance the overall gameplay environment:
Terrain Adjustments: Characters should no longer get stuck when terrain reforms, reducing frustrating moments.
Collision Corrections: Broken collisions, floating objects, and other environmental glitches are being addressed for a more immersive experience.
Audio Enhancements: Various sound effect issues are being fixed to ensure a richer auditory experience.
One of the most exciting leaks is the introduction of a fresh game mode: Clone Rumble!
This mode allows you and your teammates to select the same hero, creating unique team compositions and strategies. Imagine a squad full of Lokis causing chaos—sounds like a blast!
Thanks to @RivalsInfo for the info ofc

The patch isn’t just about fixes; it’s also bringing significant balance adjustments:
Nerfs: Heroes like Human Torch and The Punisher are reportedly receiving nerfs to tone down their dominance. Let’s be honest, Human Torch is a little overtuned at the moment.
Buffs: Conversely, Loki and Wolverine are expected to get buffs, potentially making them more viable in various team compositions.
Fashion-forward players, rejoice! A new Black Widow skin, inspired by Mrs. Barnes, is rumored to be available for free starting March 7 by @X0X_LEAK.
Time to stealthily take down enemies in style.

While the patch notes highlight numerous fixes and content additions, one glaring issue remains unaddressed: the notorious GPU crash error. Many players have reported consistent crashes during gameplay, leading to frustration and disrupted matches.
The community has been vocal about this problem, and it’s surprising that it hasn’t been prioritized in the upcoming patch. A seamless gaming experience is crucial, and we hope the developers acknowledge and rectify this issue promptly.

On a personal note: I am lucky enough to play Monster Hunter Wilds without any noticeable frame rate drops or issues, as performance issues have been reported by a large number of players in MHW, but I still get this sinister game crash probably once an hour or two.
I don’t even think it would be that much an issue if they had some sort of system that skips all of the intro screens and automatically tries to reconnect you to your game like League of Legends does…but I digress!
The Marvel Rivals community has had mixed reactions to the leaked patch notes. While many are excited about the new content and fixes, there’s a shared sentiment of “I’ll believe it when I see it.” Past patches have sometimes fallen short of expectations, and players are understandably cautious.
However, the introduction of the Clone Rumble mode has sparked considerable interest, with players eager to experiment with unconventional team compositions.
As we await the official patch release on March 6, 2025, the leaked information has certainly stirred excitement within the community.
From hero fixes and balance changes to new game modes and skins, there’s a lot to look forward to. However, the lingering performance issues, particularly the GPU crashes, cast a shadow over the upcoming update.
It’s imperative for the developers to address these critical problems to maintain player trust and ensure the game’s longevity.
Stay tuned, Rivals!
We’ll keep you updated with the latest developments and official confirmations as they become available. In the meantime, may your matches be epic and your heroes victorious!
