Marvel Rivals Adds Endgame PvE Mode With 50 Heroes on October 24
The mode pulls from a film ending the game has no ownership of, and the footage leans on the movie's lines rather than the game's own story, which is how a licensed hero shooter earns attention outside its 6-on-6 format.

The official Marvel Rivals account announced the large-scale PvE mode Path to Doomsday - Avengers: Endgame for October 24 (UTC). Players gather at the ruins of Avengers Headquarters with 50 heroes against Thanos's army. Released footage opens on Captain America's "assemble" line and runs through Iron Man's "And I am Iron Man." Wolverine, Deadpool, and the Fantastic 4 appear among the playable roster. An interactive event is planned for Times Square.
The scale is the point. Fifty heroes on screen at once is well beyond the 6-on-6 matches the game runs, and the setup is fixed: the ruins of Avengers Headquarters, Thanos's army, the film's last stand. The footage also shows Wolverine, Deadpool, and the Fantastic 4 in the lineup, characters who are not part of that battle in the film. The mode lands on October 24 (UTC), with an interactive event planned for Times Square.
