NetEase Games’ Marvel Rivals has been killing it with the rapid release of new events for players to experience. Following the awesome Christmas Jeff event and the ongoing Lunar New Year event, a Marvel Rivals Valentine’s Day event is just around the corner.
Marvel Rivals Valentine’s Event gets leaked
Following leaks of a swarm of X-Men characters that some believe might be fake, renowned Rivals leaker X0X_Leak has revealed that an official Valentine’s Day event is coming to the game. However, details are incredibly scarce and by that we mean essentially non-existance.
At the time of writing, the upcoming Marvel Rivals Valentine’s Day event is planned to start on, well, Valentine’s Day. Starting on February 14th at 4AM Eastern Standard Time, the event will last for three weeks, ending on March 6th at 3.59AM Eastern Standard Time.
At the time of writing, that’s literally everything we know about the Valentine’s Day event. However, judging by the fact that every other event in the game revolves around a small pool of characters, we can guess what characters will appear.
For example, if we were designing an in-game Valentine’s Day event, we would probably revolve the event around in-game couples. For example, we could have a 2v1 event with Mr Fantastic and Sue Storm fighting back against that pesky Namor—now that would be something very fun indeed.
Whatever happens, it’s awesome that a Marvel Rivals Valentine’s Day event is coming to the game. Hopefully, other live-service games—such as Infinity Nikki—will also get some great events for the annual celebration. Of course, we also expect a tonne of amazing Valentine’s themed skins to be added to the game.
