In a recent post on Twitter, NetEase Games gave players a first look at patch notes detailing what they can expect to see when the title's next update goes live on July 24. There will not be any kind of downtime associated with the update, which means players can restart their game after it goes live with minimal interruption. While many fans are excited about the upcoming Fantastic Four cosmetics, they'll also be receiving a new Marvel Rivals team-up featuring Human Torch and The Thing. This team-up will give Human Torch the ability to pick up The Thing and carry him across the battlefield. After reaching their desired location, The Thing can drop on nearby foes and deliver a powerful attack.

In addition to fresh skins and a new team-up, NetEase Games announced that it will be making a change to Accessory Points in Marvel Rivals. Generally, players can look forward to receiving more Accessory Points as they complete matches. When playing Quick Match, gamers will now receive 15 Accessory Points after completing the match. While participating in Practice VS. AI, fans will now receive 10 Accessory Points at the end of a match. This change will go live after Accessory Points reset later in the week.

While this update will go live on July 24, many players are already keeping an eye towards the future, as Marvel Rivals recently revealed a roadmap for Season 3. A lot of players seem to be most excited about August 8, as NetEase Games will launch a major Season 3.5 update on that day. The upcoming update will add the popular Marvel character Blade to the hero shooter as a playable character.

New Additions and Optimizations

1. New Team-Up Ability - First Steps (Human Torch & The Thing): Johnny is the Team-Up Anchor and can lift The Thing into the air. Then, at the perfect moment, hurl Ben to the ground, dealing damage, launching enemies, and creating a zone that disables mobility abilities. "You know what time it is, Ben?"
2. We've increased the rate at which Accessory Points can be earned: Quick Match: Now grants 15 per match. Practice VS. AI: Now grants 10 per match. This change takes effect after the Accessory Point limit resets on 25/07/2025 at 09:00:00 (UTC).

Fixes

All Platforms

Fixed an issue where there was no background music in the lobby transition for Psylocke's Breezy Butterfly costume. Now, you can enjoy those mutant vibes in style!

Heroes

Spider-Man's Web of Woes: Fixed a bug where Peter's selection box could get tangled and display incorrectly when both a Spider-Tracer and Burn-Tracer existed at the same time. Now Spidey's marks display correctly, no more sticky situations.
Phoenix's Fiery Focus: Corrected a minor scaling error in Phoenix's hero select display. Jean's presence is now as balanced as the Phoenix Force itself.
Black Widow's Red Room Reboot: Addressed an issue where if Natasha was launched up during Edge Dancer, it could disrupt the subsequent multi-stage ability logic. The Black Widow Program taught her better - Nat's moves are now flawless.
Rocket Raccoon's Ravager Revival: Fixed a glitch in Rocket's B.R.B., where, when reviving a teammate, it would sometimes incorrectly display in the top right that it revived 2 teammates. Even Rocket can only make one miracle at a time, folks!
Cloak & Dagger's Shadow Shuffle: Resolved an unintended crossover where Cloak & Dagger's Ultimate Ability could be affected by another teammate's Cloak's Dark Teleportation (such as a shapeshifted Loki). The Darkforce Dimension is invitation-only!
Phoenix's Frame-Rate Phoenix Down: Fixed an issue where Phoenix's turning mid-air during her Ultimate Ability was affected by frame rate (lower frame rates made her easier to control). Now, Jean's fiery flight is smooth at any speed. Rise again, Phoenix!
