Marvel Rivals – Season Three
On this Mosaic (Space) Timeline, the Phoenix and Jean Grey have fully accepted each other, traveling through the universe while helping residents across the galaxy. However, when the Timestream Entanglement took place, the Phoenix sensed a terrible darkness awakening at the edge of the known universe. The Phoenix could feel that this darkness had already corrupted many gods, and even she, who was so far away, felt a sharp pain in her mind. In order to annihilate it in its slumber, the Phoenix and Jean decided to venture into the abyss where this darkness resided, using their flames to completely burn down the root of this universe's problem.
The Phoenix (Duelist) – Original X-Men member Jean Grey boasted immense psychic power even before becoming host to the unbridled Phoenix Force, the embodiment of life and psionic energy across the universe. Now aligned with this ancient cosmic power, Jean and the Phoenix traverse space together, burning bright as both a spark of creation and inferno of destruction! Knull has slaughtered multiple Celestials. The severed head of the first Celestial he decapitated drifted away from the planet Klyntar over the eons, morphing into Knowhere. Meanwhile, the body has remained in orbit above Klyntar, slowly corroded by Knull's power within and the forces of the cosmos outside.The Celestial Remains fall from the sky, becoming a part of the Klyntar landscape.
For Season Three, the Marvel Rivals is adding new features, battle pass, system updates, and four new Team-Ups. The game's mission system will see a complete overhaul, and a new layer of customization to the accessories system will be introduced. A brand-new competitive mode will be released in the latter half of Season Three, and Blade will be joining the roster! Also, starting from Season three, verified university students will enjoy costume trials. Upon completing verification, university students can enjoy access to 10 costumes and MVPs. These costumes will rotate each season. The Marvel Rivals team is rolling out email verification for students in the US, UK, and more, with more regions to come.
