NetEase previously added four maps, Sanctum Sanctorum, Midtown, and Central Park, showing the chaos that ensued with Dracula’s invasion in the first season. Now, a newMarvel Rivalsleak has been shared, revealing that another map inspired by a well-known comic book location could be coming to the game soon.
Reputable leaker X0X_LEAK teasedthat Arakko will be the second map thatMarvel Rivalswill add in Season 2. According to them, new lore entries have been found in the game files: one talks about an attack on Krakoa, presumably from Ultron, with the attacker taking Cerebro and departing to Arakko. Another mentions the mutants of Krakoa losing contact with those in Arakko, and not even the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda being able to pinpoint the nation’s current location. The information was alsoclaimed by Miller Ross, who hadshared otherMarvel Rivalsleaksbefore, adding that the map will arrive on May 30 along with Ultron and the mid-season update.
New Marvel Rivals Map May Explore Arakko, Important Location in Mutant Lore
In the comics, Arakko was a sister mutant nation of Krakoa that was part of the sentient island of Okkara. After being attacked by the demon god Annihilation, Okkara was split into two parts - Krakoa and Arakko - with the latter being sealed off by Apocalypse, its leader, to prevent the demon troops from advancing. As with other leaks, players should consider the information with a grain of salt, as it could change until an official announcement is made. However, it’s worth noting that, given Arakko’s importance in Krakoa’s story—which is a key part ofMarvel RivalsSeason 2—the rumor has a significant chance of becoming reality.
While players wait for confirmation from NetEase,Marvel Rivalshas a new mapfor fans to enjoy. Introduced at the start of Season 2, players can battle in Krakoa, the nation that hosts the Hellfire Gala. Available in Domination mode, Krakoa is a map with lush flora and symbolic landmarks such as the statue of Professor X, in which players fight to control strategic points and win the match.
