Netease will remove Season 2 of Marvel Rivals on April 11th. As expected, new characters and new maps are part of the plan.
This must spark controversy. Some characters are once again Nervized, but others are given buffs so I don’t even need it. Team ups are also seeing large shakeups, with some new ones being introduced and existing ones being removed or changed.
