Marvel Rivals players have been immersing themselves in the recently launched Galacta's Cosmic Adventure event, which began on March 7 and is set to run until April 11. This event introduces the new Clone Rumble mode and offers a plethora of rewards, including the coveted "Mrs. Barnes" Black Widow costume.

However, beyond the immediate content, astute players have begun to speculate that the Galacta's Cosmic Adventure event harbors subtle hints about upcoming Season 2 content, particularly the introduction of a new map.

The Mysterious Central Hovering Rock

Central to the event's game board is a conspicuous hovering rock adorned with a question mark. This enigmatic feature has sparked curiosity and theories within the community. One Reddit user, BakeMate, observed that each segment of the board corresponds to existing maps, leaving the central area intriguingly vacant.

"There's a piece of floating stone that says it'll be revealed in 23 days and 10 hours. My theory is that we are gonna get a new map, probably Krakoa?" - BakeMate

The speculation about Krakoa isn't unfounded. Players have discovered that one of the event's rewards is the "Damaged Cerebro" spray, reminiscent of the Cerebro helmet associated with Professor X during the X-Men's Krakoa era. This subtle nod has led many to believe that Krakoa could be the forthcoming map. Supporting this theory, BakeMate mentioned, "Each part of the map is segregated by the floating stones, whilst leaving the middle part almost empty."

Developer's Tease and Data Mining Insights

Adding fuel to the fire, the event's official guide hints at a mysterious reward set to be unveiled on March 31, 2025, stating, "A mysterious reward will be revealed on March 31, 2025! Could it be related to a new Hero?" While this suggests a new character, the community remains hopeful for a new map reveal.

Furthermore, data miners have previously unearthed files indicating that NetEase Games might be developing new maps, including the Savage Land and Mojo World, for Marvel Rivals. These findings, combined with the current event's clues, have led to widespread anticipation for a significant announcement as Season 2 approaches.

Community Buzz and Anticipation

The Marvel Rivals community is abuzz with discussions and theories. Players are meticulously analyzing every detail of the event, from the design of the game board to the nature of the rewards, in hopes of deciphering what lies ahead.

User shift_boi commented, "Well isn’t the event ending when the season ends, and it’s safe to assume we’d get a new map for the next season either way."

As the event progresses and the countdown to March 31 continues, players remain eager to uncover the secrets embedded within Galacta's Cosmic Adventure. Whether it's a new map, a new hero, or both, the community's excitement is palpable, making this one of the most engaging events in Marvel Rivals' history.

In the meantime, players can continue to participate in the event, complete missions, and speculate on the potential revelations that Season 2 may bring. The fusion of in-game content with subtle hints showcases NetEase Games' commitment to creating an immersive and interactive experience for its dedicated player base.
