Marvel Rivals has recently sparked excitement among its players with the leak of a new feature that allows for lobby background customization. This option, still in its early development stages, has garnered positive responses from the community, eager for regular updates and new content that keeps the game engaging.
The latest update, released on June 5, introduced several highlights, including the Ultron’s Battle Matrix Protocol mode. This new mode, inspired by Auto Chess, is available until June 23.
Additionally, players can find new items in the store, such as the Weapon X skin for Wolverine and the Sunshine Land Shark skin for Jeff, both of which are already popular. The update also addressed terrain issues on the Hellfire Gala: Krakoa map, improving gameplay by fixing problematic spots where players would get stuck.
According to a leak shared by user RivalsInfo on Twitter, the lobby customization feature will tie into the player’s selected skin, changing the lobby’s background accordingly. A video accompanying the tweets showcased various skins for characters like Peni Parker, Scarlet Witch, Hela, and Black Widow, demonstrating how the lobby’s appearance varies with each choice.
Interestingly, even if players opt for a character’s default outfit, a unique background will still be applied. Moreover, there are hints that some backgrounds may be available for purchase in the game’s shop.
The community’s enthusiastic reaction reflects a long-standing request for lobby customization. Players appreciated the developers’ responsiveness to feedback, with some speculating that this feature could enhance the value of legendary skins.
However, RivalsInfo cautioned fans that while the feature is on the horizon, it remains in its very early stages, with no confirmed release date. As always with leaks, players are advised to maintain cautious optimism until more official announcements are made.
