The Marvel Rivals Season 4 update is right around the corner, but before its arrival, Netease have announced a new patch to address some known issues. Abiding by what appears to be a weekly update schedule, the latest Rivals patch brings fixes and a brand-new skin bundle to the game. The primary issue resolved by the September 3 patch concerns abnormally high boosts afforded to Emma Frost and Doctor Strange during Blade’s Bloodline Awakening. With all that being said, check out the full Marvel Rivals September 3 patch notes below.
Will There Be a Downtime for Today’s Marvel Rivals Update?
Smaller patches, such as the September 3 update, don’t require downtime. This means that players simply need to update the game client, and then jump in to check out the content — no downtime needed. Downtime and lengthy server queues typically occur for larger seasonal updates, such as the release of Season 3.5.

Fixes
All Platforms
- Squashed a Discord doppelganger issue where, for players who connected to Discord, sending a friend request would have duplicate requests appear.
- Corrected a bug where certain display ratios made it impossible to set costume Exclusive SFX.
- Corrected some confusion in Custom Game – Tournament Room spectator mode, where team colors were displayed incorrectly when checking them by pressing ESC.
- Defeated some Hydra-level persistence where canceling password input when entering a locked custom game to spectate would trigger an endless pop-up loop.
Maps and Modes
- Patched up a batch of pesky map bugs that could trap, squish, or send heroes tumbling into weird places.
Heroes
- Frosty Magic & Strange Gains: There was a bug where Emma Frost’s Telepathic Pulse and Doctor Strange’s attacks against Blade during Bloodline Awakening were giving them some extra bite, abnormally boosting Emma’s Energy and Doctor Strange’s Dark Magic. Everything is now under control; no more sucking bonus power from The Daywalker.
