NetEase has been pretty tame<\/a><\/span> with its Marvel Rivals<\/em><\/a><\/span> <\/em>balance updates thus far. It gave troublesome heroes like Hela a slap on the wrist and has released patches entirely dedicated to bug fixes. However, it sounds like the next patch, which will add the Human Torch and the Thing to the roster, will finally be targeting some developing metas and pain points. Is that a good or a bad thing? Time will tell and your mileage may vary, but either way, it looks like NetEase is trying to rein in some of the hero shooter\u2019s chaos.<\/p>\n In a developer update, NetEase broke down some of the new features and balance changes coming to Marvel Rivals <\/em>on February 21 as part of Season 1\u2019s mid-season update. The headliners are the Human Torch and the Thing, who will join the game as a Duelist<\/a><\/span> and Vanguard<\/a><\/span>, respectively. NetEase is also bringing a new Central Park map to the game alongside its new heroes, though the studio didn\u2019t say what kind of mode it would be for.<\/p>\n Also coming in the second half of Season 1, Marvel Rivals <\/em>will allow you to convert any excess Chrono Tokens (currency used exclusively for battle pass unlocks) into Units (the game\u2019s standard currency used to buy cosmetics), though the team was quick to point out that they will convert at \u201ca specific ratio,\u201d and didn\u2019t get any more specific than that.\u201d<\/p>\n Why This Under-the-Radar AAA Title Is More Than Just A Far Cry Clone<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
