Marvel Contest Of Champions Reveals New Hero During NYCC 2023

Kabam revealed a few new items coming to Marvel Contest Of Champions at NYCC 2023, including an all-new hero named Chee’ilth.


Mobile developer and publisher Kabam held a special panel for Marvel Contest Of Champions during New York Comic Con 2023, revealing an all-new character. The new champion being added to the mix is Chee'ilth, who is a First Nation Hero created by a team of First Nations people specifically for this title. According to the info revealed this afternoon, Chee'ilth has been endowed with fighting strength from Brother Grizzly and the skill to heal from Sister Eagle, both of which are Spirits tied to her Native American heritage.  The characters will be launched into the game this November, but before that, the company teamed with Marvel to create an original comic illustrating Chee'ilth's origin, which will be released in shops ahead of her appearance.

The team also talked about the incoming addition of Act 8, which will take things in a new direction as you're getting the darker side of several heroes. As well as a quick build-up to the Battlerealm Brawl, taking place in Canada this month, as they crown a new champion in their esports tournament. We have more info on those items and a trailer below.
