Marvel Rivals Patch 20250327: New Galacta's Quest Easter Egg and Hero Fixes Revealed

NetEase Games has unveiled the patch notes for Marvel Rivals version 20250327, setting the stage for an exciting launch of Season 2 in mid-April. The developer behind this beloved hero shooter has shared a comprehensive update on its website, scheduled for release this Thursday, March 27, at 9am (UTC+0). Players can expect a seamless experience as there will be no server downtime, allowing you to dive right into the action and explore the revamped abilities of heroes like Wolverine and Iron Fist the moment the update goes live.

A standout feature of this update is an unexpected addition to the Galacta’s Cosmic Quest board game event. As an April Fool’s Easter egg, NetEase is offering a special reward exclusively for those who have completed the activity. This "hidden twist surprise" remains a mystery, but anticipation is high, and players will discover its secrets later this week.

This update also brings significant improvements to map gameplay, reducing instances of clipping and enhancing overall performance. While specific details on which maps will benefit most are sparse, NetEase has confirmed the resolution of a glitch on the Hydra Charteris Base map that previously caused teammates to be revived outside the play area.

As Season 1 of Marvel Rivals winds down and the community eagerly anticipates Season 2, this week’s patch introduces numerous fixes aimed at enhancing hero abilities. Heroes such as Wolverine, Iron Fist, Iron Man, Loki, Doctor Strange, Magneto, and Human Torch have all received targeted tweaks. Notably, Wolverine's Feral Leap and Ultimate abilities are now more reliable, promising a smoother experience for players.

Looking ahead, Marvel Rivals Season 2 is slated for release on April 11, 2025. Speculation is rife about potential new heroes, with many fans hopeful that the upcoming season will revolve around Marvel’s iconic Hellfire Gala. This could mean the introduction of characters like Blade and Emma Frost, aligning with NetEase’s commitment to bringing at least one new hero per half-season.

Fixes

All Platforms

General

1. Resolved an issue in Custom Game where a disconnected player's character would still appear on the Like page during match settlement.

Maps and Modes

1. Fixed several terrain issues that could cause characters to sometimes become stuck or clip into strange areas.

2. Squashed a glitch in the Hydra Charteris Base map where Rocket Raccoon's B.R.B. could sometimes revive teammates outside the play area due to terrain changes.

Heroes

1. Wolverine's Terrifying Pounce: Resolved an issue where the Hulk could sometimes have abnormal behavior after being catapulted into a terrain KO by Wolverine's Feral Leap. Now, the big guy gets the proper beatdown without any off-script environmental stunts!

2. Iron Fist's Wall-Climbing Whimsy: Fixed a glitch in Practice Range where Iron Fist wall-climbing was beyond expectations. The master of martial arts can now keep his acrobatic feats on track!

3. Iron Man's Teleportation Tangle: In Sanctum Sanctorum, Iron Man use of Hyper-Velocity followed immediately by portal entry could occasionally throw a wrench in the works—resulting in the ability to misfire and some off-color special effects. Now, Iron Man's high-tech strategy is as sleek as ever, letting him jet in and out as he pleases.

4. Loki-Doctor Strange's Forbidden Tech: Fixed an issue in Doom Match where Loki's transformation into Doctor Strange allowed the use of the forbidden Pentagram of Farallah. This minds-warping mix-up has been vanquished.

5. Magneto's Magnetic Moments: Resolved an issue in the post-match where Magneto's MVP could sometimes display some bizarre, offbeat visuals. The master of magnetism now commands his moments with true polar precision.

6. Wolverine's Ultimate with Pinpoint Precision: Fixed a snag in Wolverine's Ultimate Ability where, under high network latency, foes sent flying and slammed into the ground could sometimes end up in the wrong location. Now, every Last Stand lands exactly where it should.

7. Human Torch's Fiery Focus: Addressed a rare bug where the Human Torch's Primary Attack would sometimes miss its target entirely, leaving his incendiary prowess a little less scorching. With this fix, every burst of flame burns as brilliantly as intended—ensuring his heat is always on target!

Console

1. Eliminated a bug that sometimes caused the focus to unpredictably shift to earlier messages when opening the chat window.
