Marvel Rivals unveils first-ever PvE mode, Marvel Zombies, releasing next week
On Oct. 17, 2025, Marvel Rivals unveiled its very first PvE mode called Marvel Zombies. This is in collaboration with the animated show of the same name. The game mode will be released on Oct. 23, 2025.
This game mode is pretty similar to Call of Duty Zombies mode in a way that the players will have to defeat hordes of zombies and then fight bosses every so often. The big difference is that the players will have five Marvel characters to choose from: Blade, Thor, Magik, The Punisher and Jeff. Based on the video, it seems that the mode can only accommodate up to four players.
All the characters have seemingly updated move sets to be able to deal with the horde. For example, Jeff’s ability, where he goes underground and only shows his fin, has been changed to an attack move that damages everyone in front of him. Punisher also seems to have been tweaked, as his turret was shown shooting on its own. Finally, the mode will have players fight against Hela and Namor.
Aside from what was mentioned in the video accompanying the announcement, there’s not much information available. The developers are expected to release more information about the event close to its release.
