Marvel Rivals Announces PvE Zombie Mode
"Though you won't have access to the full roster of heroes available in PvP, you can choose among Thor, Blade, Magik, Jeff the Shark, and the Punisher to sweep through zombie hordes and take on Zombie Namoor and the Queen of the Dead, who serve as bosses. It all launches on October 23, 2025, just in time for Halloween. The first-ever PvE mode: Marvel Zombies is coming on Oct 23, 2025 UTC."
"As reported by Forbes' Paul Tassi, the once white-hot shooter has cooled, losing 85 percent of the player base it enjoyed earlier in the year. As Tassi notes, the player count is still quite healthy, with concurrents peaking at 98,000 in recent days. But clearly Marvel Studios could use a bit of a shot in the arm if it wants to reclaim its previous numbers, which saw things top out at 644,000 concurrents."
Marvel Rivals will introduce a PvE Zombies mode called Marvel Zombies on October 23, 2025, as a collaboration with Marvel Animation following the Marvel Zombies miniseries on Disney+. Players can choose Thor, Blade, Magik, Jeff the Shark, or the Punisher to fight endless undead waves and face bosses Zombie Namoor and the Queen of the Dead. Developer NetEase shared a gameplay teaser on X showing animation, gameplay slices, and mode details. Heroes gain altered mechanics—Thor receives a persistent awakened state and Magik has an unlimited Darkchild form. The mode aims to revitalize player engagement after an 85 percent drop from earlier peaks.
