Celebrate Black History Month, Lunar New Year, and Valentine’s Day With Marvel Contest of Champions

Marvel Contest of Champions

Kabam has a lot to celebrate this month on its popular mobile fighter Marvel Contest of Champions with Black History Month and powerful Black Super Heroes, Lunar New Year and spectacular rewards, and Valentine’s Day with bundles of sweet treats for the fans and new players. See below for a snapshot of what The Battlerealm has in store for its players this February:

CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY MONTH IN THE CONTEST

The Contest of Champions is a home to a diverse gathering of Super Heroes from every possible background and origin. This month MCoC is welcoming the formidable leader of the Jabari Tribe M’BAKU along with war veteran, all-star football player, and living anti-matter containment unit BLUE MARVEL! Players will have the opportunity to obtain M’Baku on Feb. 12, while Blue Marvel can be obtained on Feb. 26.

With over 300 Champions in The Contest, players can also add other classic Marvel Super Heroes and villains such as Captain America (Sam Wilson), Jabari Panther, Killmonger, Patriot, Photon, Prowler, and more.

M’BAKU

The charismatic and formidable leader of the Jabari Tribe, is one of Wakanda’s most powerful warriors and a frequent rival of T’Challa. He is a traditionalist, a worshipper of the White Gorilla,

Ghekre, living with his tribe in the isolated mountains away from the rest of Wakanda due to

ideological differences. He and his tribe reject the technological progress embraced by T’Challa’s

leadership. Though often seen challenging T’Challa’s rule, ultimately his motivations stem from a

deep belief in maintaining Wakanda’s ancient traditions.

BLUE MARVEL

Adam Brashear had always been a prodigy—a college football star with multiple Ph.D.s who earned two Silver Stars serving as a Marine in the Korean War. While leading Project: Perseus, an attempt to harness the power of antimatter, Adam and his fellow Marine Conner Sims were caught in a reactor explosion. Conner was vaporized, but the reaction stabilized within Adam’s body, granting him the amazing powers of the Blue Marvel. When his identity as a Black man was revealed in a titanic battle alongside the Avengers, Adam was asked by the President to retire, as the country was not ready for the most powerful man in America to be openly and unapologetically Black during the 1960’s. For decades, he obliged, but after losing much of his family in another accident, he has since returned to stand against the ever present threats of the modern world.

SOMETHING SINISTER IS COMING…

Renowned scientist and human-reptile hybrid Dr. Curtis Connors, better known as LIZARD, is entering The Contest, joined by your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man from the city of Mumbattan, PAVITR PRABHAKAR. Players will have the opportunity to obtain Lizard on November 13, while Spider-Man (Pavitr Prabhakar) release is set for December 18. Players can acquire him early by completing objectives to receive milestone prizes in his Double Track event.

Lizard

Dr. Curtis Connors is a renowned scientist and field surgeon who tragically lost an arm during his service. After returning to civilian life, he devoted himself to finding a way to regenerate lost limbs by developing a serum based on reptilian DNA. He used himself as the first test subject, and while the serum worked, it also mutated his DNA and he turned himself into a human-reptile hybrid known as the Lizard.

Spider-Man (Pavitr Prabhakar)

Pavitr Prabhakar was born and raised in the vibrant but gridlocked city of Mumbattan. Granted magical spider powers by a shaman and guided by the moral lessons of his Aunt Maya and late Uncle Bhim, he has assumed the heroic mantle of Spider-Man. These model heroics led to his induction into the Spider-Society. When the Spot invades his city and causes a disaster, Pavitr gets a painful look at the darker sides of his new life, and now searches for a better way forward for the multiverse.

➔     Event Quest – “So Much More”: Pavitr Prabhakar is investigating strange multiversal tech and trespassers and looks to The Summoner to lend a hand. Meanwhile, The Lizard has stumbled into The Battlerealm after years of trying to avoid this multiversal fate. It would seem that a Sinister Six (and then some) of villains is behind both arrivals, but how will these Spider-friends and foes fend when the web is revealed?

SIDE QUEST – TOP OF THE CHARTS

Eidol Lumatrix is fascinated by the mortals, gods, mutants, and monsters which have infected The Battlerealm. It seems that the pure thunder and blazes of battle are like music to their ears, so they are demanding an epic “concert” to play out as Summoners challenge their teams to greater and greater heights!

➔     In the all-new “Top of the Charts” side quest, players are challenged to a solo experience where they must battle the time and defeat their opponent within 1 minute. Just like the Crucible, players can only bring in one Champion per fight so be strategic. Players will earn rewards as they complete each floor and climb the top of the charts. The higher you climb, the better the rewards! This special side quest kicks off November 12 and ends December 3.

Other Marvel Contest of Champions updates, including bug fixes, collectibles, rewards, Cosmic Eggs, Deadpool’s Maze, and more can be found in the latest release notes HERE.

Fall Arrives in Marvel Contest of Champions with New Champions, Event Quests, and More

Kabam suits up for the fall season in Marvel Contest of Champions – introducing new Champions, character updates, special quests, and ticket sales for the ‘Summoners Fest – Battlerealm Brawl’ Finals event at their headquarters in Vancouver, BC.

Silver Samurai and Mr. Knight

2025 SUMMONER’S CHOICE CHAMPION JOINS THE BATTLEREALM

The players have spoken and with the power of their vote, MR. KNIGHT is entering The Contest this September and is joined by mutant SILVER SAMURAI! Players will have the opportunity to obtain Silver Samurai on September 11, and Mr. Knight on September 25. What shadows and steel will they bring to The Battlerealm?

Mr. Knight (Summoner’s Choice Winner)

There is a time for a clenched fist and time for a helping hand. When Moon Knight wants to add nuance to his crime-fighting he takes on the persona of Mr. Knight. This gentleman detective can talk his way out of trouble, but is no stranger to rolling up his sleeves for more intensive interrogations.

Silver Samurai

Kenuichio Harada is the mutant son of former Japanese crimelord Shingen Yashida, the head of the influential Clan Yashida in Japan. Harada has mastered the disciplines of the Samurai, with his mutant powers granting him the ability to generate energy from within himself, and transfer said energy through inanimate objects. He uses this gift to empower his sacred Katana, allowing it to cut through nearly anything. Now, like his father, he seeks to run his own criminal underworld.

VILLAIN TAKEOVER

New Eidol SOLVARCH and the villainous CASSANDRA NOVA join The Contest! Players will have the opportunity to obtain Solvarch on August 7, and Cassandra Nova on August 28. What will their arrival mean for The Battlerealm?

Solvarch:
The result of this nightmarish design, an Eidol whose thirst for destruction is matched only by his hunger for power. With the ability to freeze their opponent with a mere touch, they hunger to absorb all the power in The Battlerealm, before releasing this overwhelming power on any who would dare stand in their way.

Cassandra Nova:
A manifestation of negative potential that is a dark reflection of all the psionic power and potential of Charles Xavier. This sister was thought to be destroyed but somehow she rebuilt herself cell by cell for decades. Now, wielding power and hate in equal measure, she seeks to destroy all that her brother has built.

Will The Contest survive the arrival of these cunning villains? Or will it be forever changed?

High Evolutionary:

Herbert Wyndham began experimenting with genetic manipulation in an attempt to “evolve” rats. He was later approached by a disguised Inhuman who would hand him the blueprints to unlock genetic code. This advanced his experiments to evolving animals into humanoids he called “New Men”. Obsessed in his pursuit of creating the perfect being, Wyndham renamed himself “High Evolutionary.”

The Maker:

A dark descent caused an alternate universe Reed Richards to head towards villainy. Calamities followed, then rejection, murder and finally a confrontation with Sue which resulted in an outraged Johnny scarring Reed’s face. Donning a helmet, Reed became The Maker, founding the Children of Tomorrow and evolving alongside them for thousands of years before returning to remake the world.

Collectable 2-Star Doombots will be available soon! Stay tuned to see how to add these mighty minions to your team!
