Nearly a full year after release, Marvel Rivals is getting its first-ever PvE (player versus enemy) mode in the form of “ Marvel Zombies .”
Like the name implies, the mode is a collaboration with Marvel Animation and based on the recent Disney+ animated series of the same name. In the game, four players will take on endless hordes of the undead as Thor, Magik, Punisher, Jeff the Shark, and Blade, who each have different buffs or abilities specific to this mode. Players will also fight against two bosses: Zombie Namor and Scarlet Witch in her “Queen of the Dead” form, which are both from the show. The mode is a fun inclusion—zombies used to be all the rage for major video games back in the day, and it’s easy to imagine Rivals would’ve had it even without doing any TV synergy.
