Marvel Rivals is Officially Beating Overwatch to the Punch

Marvel Rivals fans were pleased to see that NetEase is going all out to make Season 9 special for the community, as it’s poised to be jam-packed with content. A new map based on Apocalypse’s empire will be released a few weeks after the Season begins, with Strategist Jubilee coming on day one and (assumed) Vanguard The Hood coming midseason. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg, as new mechanics like health regen are being introduced, the team-up system is being overhauled, and Black Widow’s long overdue rework will make her play more like Ashe from Overwatch. However, that isn’t the only similarity Season 9’s content has to the biggest name in the hero shooter genre, as one battle pass skin looks eerily familiar.
