Marvel Rivals' Danny Koo Reveals Insights on Zombie Mode and Future Plans
Marvel Games' Executive Producer Danny Koo, currently leading Marvel Rivals, shared exclusive details about upcoming features and content at gamescom asia x Thailand Game Show. With nearly 10 months since the game's launch, he discussed the studio's aggressive schedule and new gameplay modes.
Introducing Marvel Zombie Mode
Marvel Rivals is expanding with its first PvE mode, called Marvel Zombie Mode. This limited-time event acts as a "testbed," featuring five playable characters fighting waves of undead enemies across New York, culminating in a battle against the Queen of the Dead.
“It’s the first PvE mode for Marvel Rivals. It only has five characters right now. It’s just like a testbed to see what players like, how the system works, and hopefully in the future we’ll deploy more PvE mode based on data collected from this round of PvE event.”
— Danny Koo
Collaboration and Authenticity
This new mode is developed in collaboration with Marvel Animation, utilizing assets directly from the show to maintain authenticity. Among the characters are zombie versions of Namor and the Queen of the Dead, closely matching their animated designs.
“We have a zombie Namor and a zombie Queen of the Dead from the show. The costumes are very close to the animation.”
