NetEase Games brings Daredevil, new Team-Ups, and more in the mid-season update.
NetEase Games has revealed major news for Marvel Rivals Season 4.5. In a new video update, creative director Guangguang explained the arrival of Daredevil, Team-Up adjustments, and even a brand-new game mode. Fans also learned the official release date and time for the update.

Daredevil joins the fight
The biggest highlight of Season 4.5 is the introduction of Daredevil. Guangguang described him as a duelist hero who can choose a target, close gaps with agility, and deliver rapid attacks with his Billy Clubs. This makes him a strong option for players who prefer fast-paced combat and focused takedowns, according to esports.
Team-Up ability changes
Season 4.5 also brings changes to Team-Up abilities. Some combinations are being removed, while others are being added. The Ragnarok Rebirth Team-Up between Hela and Thor will no longer be available. Namor is also being taken out of the Gamma Charge Team-Up with Hulk and Black Panther.
To balance this, NetEase is introducing new options. Players can look forward to Bestial Hunt, a Team-Up between Daredevil and The Punisher, and Deep Wrath, a Team-Up between Hela and Namor.
New mode and seasonal events
Guangguang also teased a brand-new game mode that will be officially revealed at the Thailand Game Show on October 17. Alongside this, the update will feature a Halloween event with themed costumes to celebrate the season.
Cross-progression testing
Another detail mentioned is that a small group of players will get to test cross-progression in Season 4.5. This feature will officially launch for everyone with Season 5.0.
