General Bug Fixes and Gameplay Updates

The February update brings a variety of bug fixes and adjustments designed to improve your overall experience in Marvel Rivals. Here are the key updates:

  • Age Rating Labels Adjusted: The game has updated its age rating labels for clearer content classification.

Hero Updates and Bug Fixes

This patch addresses multiple issues with various heroes in the game, enhancing their abilities and resolving any bugs players have encountered. Here’s a breakdown of the hero-specific fixes:

Venom

  • Wild Swing: Fixed an issue where Venom’s Wild Swing could fail to end correctly. Now, he always lands in style.
  • Devourer (Ultimate Ability): Venom’s ultimate now works properly, and his Devourer ability will no longer fail to deal damage or knockback after using Feast of the Abyss.

Mr. Fantastic

  • Bulletproof Rubber: The reflective rubber ability has been fixed. It now ends correctly without any issues.

Storm

  • Temperance Control: Storm’s ultimate will now control the storm correctly, even if activated just as she passes through Doctor Strange’s portal.
  • Recovery Rumbled: If Storm’s ultimate was interrupted by destructible structures, it now recovers smoothly without ending prematurely.

Moon Knight

  • Handy Prompt: The visual cue for Moon Knight’s ultimate ability now stays visible until the ability ends, preventing any surprises.

Wolverine

  • Fastball Bewilderment: Fixed a sync issue in Wolverine’s Fastball Special Team-Up ability. Now, the Hulk will always hold Wolverine in the same position for all players.

Magneto & Iron Man

  • Magneto’s Irony: Fixed a bug where Magneto’s ultimate would absorb Iron Man’s ultimate but still show the effect afterward.

Jeff the Land Shark

  • Spitting Shenanigans: Jeff’s ultimate ability now ejects enemies in a smooth motion without any interruptions or weird animations.

Loki

  • Reload: Fixed an issue where Loki’s mystical missiles wouldn’t reload properly under unstable network conditions.

Doctor Strange Portal Fixes Information
