Marvel Rivals Reveals The Next Two Heroes for Third Season: The Abyss Awakens
Season 3 is officially coming to Marvel Rivals , and with that comes the reveal of two new incoming heroes for what is dubbed The Abyss Awakens . Just in, we have a new preview, and it reveals the long-awaited Blade as well as X-Man Jean Grey a.k.a. Phoenix. Check this out: Here's the official description: In the wake of the Timestream Entanglement, Knull stirs deep within Klyntar's core, stretching his shadowed hands across the cosmos. Power promised by the dark symbiote god beckons the awakening of a new queen. The Phoenix arrives from across the stars to erase Klyntar before the darkness can rise again! However, she'll require unlikely aid from a warrior of two worlds who lives to fight against the tide of night. As the god of the symbiotes and the Phoenix Force collide, will you burn with the light of creation or embrace the darkness? Blade has been seen resting in Wakanda for a while, so a lot of people are pretty happy to see him actually be up and about. As for Jean, she wasn't the first hero I would guess would be coming next, but she does tease the arrival of other X-Men soon. Looking at the main villain of the season though, Knull is one of the newer comic creations, but his status as the Father of Symbiotes is essentially the reason why several heroes like Captain America, Squirrel Girl, Rocket, and Jeff are getting Venom-themed skins. We don't know if everyone in the roster is getting one, but it definitely fits the stage of Klyntar, the planet of the symbiotes and Knull's homeworld (or more accurately prison). Season 3 of Marvel Rivals launches for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on July 11.

Phoenix's abilities explained in Marvel Rivals Season 3
Image via NetEase Games The introduction of Phoenix to the roster in Marvel Rivals Season 3 means even more power, with her power connected to cosmic firepowers and psychic abilities. She is Jean Grey of the comics, who bonded with the Phoenix Force and is one of the most threatening elements of the Marvel universe. Her game skill set reflects her comic-book character, providing both harmful capabilities and support possibilities. This piece of writing gives the readers an in-depth idea of what Phoenix can do and how one can make the most out of her in the Season 3 Battlefield. Breakdown of Phoenix's powers in Marvel Rivals *EXCLUSIVE* PHOENIX Guide, Combos, Tips And Ability Breakdown Phoenix shines in team fights thanks to her explosive damage and battlefield mobility. Here is a closer look at her abilities and ultimate: 1. Primary Abilities Pyrokinetic Surge : Phoenix launches a narrow beam of fire that delivers in a straight line, dealing significant damage to enemies in its path. Great for destroying enemies or finishing off fleeing targets. Blazing Wings : Activating this ability lets Phoenix glide in the air for a short period of time, improving her mobility and helping her escape from tight situations or reach high ledges. Mindflare Pulse : Unleashes a psychic wave in a small radius that stuns enemies briefly. It works well for interrupting opponents or setting up combo attacks with teammates. 2. Passive Ability: Rebirth Flame When Phoenix is eliminated, she has a cooldown period with a base chance to revive on the field in a fiery burst. This resurrection also knocks back nearby enemies, which buys some time for her team and shifts her momentum during the battle. 3. Ultimate Ability: Cosmic Conflagration Phoenix channels the full force of the Phoenix setup, releasing a massive area-of-effect explosion. Enemies under the ultimate field will deal heavy damage over time and are set ablaze. This ultimate is ideal for clearing objectives or breaking through enemies' defense mechanisms. Phoenix is an all-purpose hero who can either kill, push back, or even die and resurrect, and this makes her a high-impact addition to Marvel Rivals Season 3. She is simultaneously both a frontline attacker and a support caster based on her mixture of flight, crowd control, and high-area skills. Timing, map awareness, and knowledge of when to use her rebirth mechanic are necessary to the mastering of her abilities. Phoenix is another prime character to use this season, particularly among the players willing to switch their roster with another one with conclusive skills and significant rewards.

Marvel Rivals season 3 patch notes: Skins, fixes, and more coming in the new update
Marvel Rivals has dropped a new update ahead of its biggest seasonal refresh yet. The July 3 patch isn't massive, but it brings meaningful upgrades. Players can unlock two new superhero skins, experience smoother gameplay thanks to key bug fixes, and get ready for Season 3, which launches on July 11. The competitive shooter has kept fans busy with weekly updates, and this patch follows up on the June 26 changes that adjusted how surrendering works. That update also gave players a new Punisher skin from Daredevil: Born Again and a Thor outfit based on his look in X-Men: Hellfire Gala. Now, the focus shifts to symbiotes, venom suits, and what lies ahead. What's new in the July 3 Marvel Rivals update SEASON 3 BATTLE PASS "POWER OF THE PHOENIX" Emma Frost "Phoenix Force"Venomized skins for Rocket Raccoon, Jeff, and Squirrel Girl The biggest additions in this update are two new skin bundles: Captain America wears the "Captain Klyntar" look, where Steve Rogers suits up in a venom-inspired design from the 2017 Edge of Venomverse comic. Spider-Man joins the Future Foundation with his clean white costume, originally worn in comics during his time with Reed Richards' team. Both bundles come with extras like MVP intros, emotes, sprays, and nameplates. The update also brings fixes to issues affecting multiple characters: Thor's abilities were misfiring due to high latency, especially when using Thorforce. That problem is now resolved. Magneto and Psylocke's illusions were incorrectly triggering kill-related effects tied to other characters, like Loki or Thor. This bug has been removed, so only real opponents will activate such effects. These small but helpful tweaks should make matches smoother and more balanced for all players. This patch may be short, but it leads into something much bigger. Marvel Rivals has confirmed that Season 3 will start on July 11, bringing new heroes like Blade and Jean Grey to the game. Fans can also expect a new map based on Klyntar, home of the symbiotes, and more skins, including one for Jeff the Land Shark. Marvel Rivals continues to expand with each update. From deep lore to fun cosmetics and a growing hero lineup, it is building toward a strong third season.
