Marvel Rivals event reveals new Rocket League style game mode
Just as players began getting over the similarities betweenMarvel RivalsandOverwatch 2, Netease has come for another popular game in its upcoming Spring Festival seasonal event…Rocket League.
Coming on January 23, the upcoming seasonal event has revealed avariety of new skins, including some free additions, a new Gallery Card Customization Event named Fortune & Colors, and most importantly, a brand newgame mode: Clash of Dancing Lions.
This mode pits players against each other as they attempt to kick, punch, or smash a ball around a small enclosed arena to score a goal and come out victorious… that sound like anything you might recognize?

As shared on theMarvel Rivals X account, the Clash of Dancing Lions mode looks strikingly similar to Rocket League, only replacing the cars with the game’s characters.

Players will be able to embody theirfavorite charactersand expertly navigate the ball around the arena, avoiding, or tackling the enemy head-on to score a goal, just like in Rocket League. However, it remains to be seen as to whether they’ll be able to juggle the ball quite like they can in Rocket League.
Nevertheless, it seems Marvel Rivals has taken another leaf out of the plethora of successful games on the market right now, and it’s clear fans are thrilled.
“ROCKET LEAGUE EVENT?!?”commented one playerafter seeing the trailer. Othersechoed the sentiment: “Marvel Rivals Rocket League I love it.”
Of course, all we have to go on is the announced trailer, so it remains to be seen as to how the mode shapes up against Rocket League itself or whether it becomes a fan-favorite, but considering its success over Overwatch 2, it seems this event will get the goal Netease are working towards.
