Marvel Rivals is debuting a new game mode: Giant-Size Brain Blast. The game mode is exactly as it sounds – all playable characters in this game mode feature a giant head. This makes for far easier head shots since the characters’ heads make up half of their body proportions.
Beginning on April 25, the upcoming Marvel Rivals Game Mode: Giant-size Brain Blast provides exclusive quests alongside rewards. The new game mode features leaderboards with various rewards for achieving top 10, top 100, and top 500 respectively.
Here are the rewards:
- Top 10: Planet-Sized-Brain Iron Man
- Top 100: Monster-Sized-Brain Iron Man
- Top 500: Giant-sized-Brain IRon Man
By completing 10 matches, players can pick their own brain blast emote. The emotes increase the respective character’s head size momentarily in any game mode – serving as memorabilia for the limited time Giant-Size Brain Blast. Judging from the short teaser, which is currently the only official announcement regarding the new game mode, players can only earn one emote through the event per account.
There are a handful of free skins readily available on Marvel Rivals. MarvelRivals.gg has instructions on how to acquire the mentioned costumes – clicking on the internal links within the ‘How to Get’ tab reveals articles detailing the appropriate step-by-step process to earn the free Marvel Rivals costumes.
Research by NewZoo states that 45% of Overwatch 2 players who stopped playing in December 2024 switched to Marvel Rivals.
