Marvel Rivals is launching a major Spring Festival event this Thursday! Players can snag a free Star-Lord costume and jump into a brand-new game mode: Clash of Dancing Lions. This 3v3 mode challenges teams to score a ball in the opposing goal.
While the gameplay might evoke comparisons to Rocket League, it bears a closer resemblance to Overwatch's Lucioball – a similarly ball-based 3v3 mode. This is a noteworthy parallel, as Marvel Rivals is currently aiming to establish its own unique identity and differentiate itself from Overwatch. The choice to feature a strikingly similar game mode in its first major event is therefore interesting. However, unlike Overwatch's Olympic Games-themed Lucioball, Marvel Rivals' version boasts a distinctly Chinese New Year atmosphere.
The good news? The Spring Festival event kicks off very soon!
