Marvel Rivals November 6 Patch Notes Reveal Season 5 Heroes and Extended Zombies Event

Marvel Rivals Season 4.5’s final update has arrived, and it brings some substantial changes for players to finish their Battle Pass and Competitive Rank to grab free rewards. The previous two seasons have been focused on K’un L’un and new heroes Angela and Daredevil, taking center stage.

However, the latest Halloween event and the Zombies mode brought back a huge player base that had been missing ever since Season 4 dropped. The success of the PvE mode has thus led NetEase to extend the availability of Zombies as well as the ongoing event. Right before Season 5 rolls around next week, here are the full patch notes for today’s Marvel Rivals update.

Rogue and Gambit Arrive as Season 5 Heroes

NetEase has secretly offered a first glimpse into Season 5 and Season 5.5 heroes, Rogue and Gambit, in the latest Patch Notes image. The silhouettes of both the iconic X-Men characters can be seen in the background, and we have adjusted the image to make them appear more clearly below.

Since the past few months, the duo was speculated to arrive in a Marvel Rivals season soon. But now they’re here, players are wondering what their role would be in the game. All will be revealed when the Season 5 trailer gets released later today.

Hero Fixes

• Daredevil’s Marked Misstep: The Man Without Fear had a lingering issue where his passive mark effect could stubbornly stick to Winter Soldier if Matt, in the Spawn Room, switched heroes right after seeing an enemy Bucky and Cap dropped Stellar Impact. We’ve cleaned up the evidence; no more accidental “radar lock” on Winter Soldier by other heroes.
• Daredevil’s Purple Haze Problem: When spectating Daredevil via replay after turning off outline display, the screen could turn into a solid wall of purple; more psychedelic than practical. We’ve cleared the fog; now your replays are crystal-clear, not a trip through the Purple Man’s mindscape!
• Wolverine’s Pounce Pause: Logan’s Feral Leap occasionally refused to properly finish its run, leaving him hanging like a confused housecat. We’ve sharpened his instincts; now he lands every time, claws out and ready for the next scrap!
