Marvel Rivals is teasing a potential game-changing update, and fans should be warned – spoilers ahead.
Marvel Rivals fans, get ready to brace yourselves! New leaks suggest that a massive PvE mode could be heading to the game soon, and if you thought the competitive gameplay was intense, just wait until you face a giant sea monster. What could this beast be? Well, from the evidence dropped by insider leaker X0XLeak, it looks like a Kraken-inspired boss might be the main threat in a new "Infinity Crisis" game mode. Here’s everything we know so far about the latest rumors.
A Sea of Trouble Awaits
Let’s get the basics out of the way first. The mysterious mode, codenamed Infinity Crisis, is rumored to offer a PvE experience where players team up to take on massive boss fights. It sounds pretty epic, right? But what’s even more exciting is the leaked footage of a Kraken-like creature with animations for idle, attack, and death – you know, the usual boss fight essentials.
It's 1:1 the Store asset as of right now we gonna keep track of it, if they will change/replace the model and there's still some unused stuff related to the Boss like an AOE attack. Until than enjoy the goofy ingame look at it. Thanks to @RivalsInfo for the video https://t.co/Ktleeo4RMN pic.twitter.com/XKMxzvYlWm

While it’s clear that this creature might be a placeholder model for now, fans are already speculating about who it could really be. One name that keeps popping up is Monstro, a creature straight from Marvel's deep lore – a beast tied to Luna Snow and Namor.
Some players have linked the leaked monster to Monstro thanks to its appearance in Luna Snow's storyline and its connection to Namor’s abilities. Could this be the new boss? Only time will tell.
Capture the Flag... and Watch Out for the Tentacles!
Another leaker shared strings hinting at the potential arrival of Capture the Flag, including one line of voice text: "Your team is capturing the crystal." Additional strings mention "dragon eggs" and "death by tentacles," further fueling speculation about the massive sea creature.
Although NetEase hasn’t officially confirmed it, ongoing datamining suggests that Infinity Crisis could bring cooperative PvE content to the game. With boss battles and new challenges, this mode could elevate the game’s PvP experience to something much bigger.
