Marvel Rivals Version 20251023 Introduces Marvel Zombies PvE and Hero Fixes

Marvel Rivals patch v20251023 launches the limited-time Marvel Zombies PvE mode, event rewards, and essential bug fixes for Hulk, Blade, and other heroes.

NetEase is expanding Marvel Rivals with a zero-downtime update that brings a cooperative zombie survival mode, a fresh event pass, and several critical bug fixes addressing hero abilities and collision issues across all platforms.

Marvel Zombies PvE Mode and Events

A limited-time PvE mode, Marvel Zombies, runs from October 23 to November 14, 2025. Note that the PS4 version does not support this mode due to hardware limitations. Running concurrently is the Voyage to Astonish event, offering the Blade Knight costume for Blade and the Floral Frights costume for Peni Parker. New cosmetic bundles for Jeff the Land Shark and Namor also arrive in the store.

Hero Combat and Movement Fixes

Hulk's Radioactive Lockdown now properly registers terrain KOs, and his proficiency interface keybindings display correctly. Captain America's Fearless Leap functions reliably during poor network conditions. Blade's Bloodline Awakening attack speed bonus no longer persists past its intended duration. Scarlet Witch can move freely after casting her Ultimate in Free Fight mode, and Adam Warlock's Ultimate no longer mistakenly teleports revived teammates back to the spawn room in tight spaces. Finally, Daredevil avoids performance hitches when chaining Devil's Latch and Objection.

Twitch Drops and Emotes

A free Pumpkin Curse emote becomes available for all heroes starting October 24. Additionally, Marvel Rivals Ignite Grand Finals Twitch Drops begin on October 27, offering a Loki tournament commemorative costume, emote, nameplate, mood, and emoji for accumulated viewing time.

Why this patch matters

Between the new co-op mode and crucial fixes for Hulk and Adam Warlock, this patch smooths out mechanical inconsistencies while injecting seasonal PvE content.
