NetEase Games has officially unveiled the patch notes for Marvel Rivals' upcoming update, scheduled to launch on May 22. The best part? There will be no server downtime, allowing players to jump right back into the action after downloading the update.

While the current season continues to thrill players, anticipation is building for the major mid-season update that will introduce the iconic villain Ultron to Marvel Rivals' growing roster. As a Strategist, Ultron will offer unique support capabilities while dealing significant damage to enemies. Although his full ability kit remains under wraps, leaks suggest he'll utilize drones for both offensive and defensive maneuvers. While NetEase hasn't confirmed an exact release date for this mid-season content, speculation suggests it could arrive sooner than expected.

New Immortal Skins for Scarlet Witch and Adam Warlock

The May 22 update will introduce stunning new skins for Scarlet Witch and Adam Warlock. These Immortal-themed costumes give both characters a radiant, celestial appearance. Adam Warlock's design features two golden dragon heads adorning his shoulders, while Scarlet Witch transforms with glowing golden hair, hands, and ribbons. These premium skins will be available in the in-game store starting May 22 at 7 PM PDT, likely as part of bundles that include additional cosmetics like sprays, emotes, and MVP screens.

Returning Fan-Favorite Content

NetEase has hinted at the possible return of popular cosmetic bundles, sparking excitement among the community. Many players are hoping to see the return of the Galactic Talon skins for Hawkeye and Captain America, which were previously only available during Season 0. This speculation comes after NetEase recently brought back the Season 0 battle pass for a limited time, available until May 29.
