Following the epic Dark Phoenix saga, Kabam has unveiled an exciting new update for Marvel Contest of Champions, introducing two fresh faces to the fray: Spider-Woman and Lumatrix. Spider-Woman swings into action on April 17th, leveraging her spider-enhanced abilities and espionage skills to shake up The Contest. Lumatrix, the first Eidol Champion of 2025, makes their debut on April 9th, bringing a dazzling yet deadly mix of light manipulation powers to the game. This update also brings new quests, special events, and the latest chapter of Act 9.2, all packed with valuable rewards for players to chase.
Lumatrix isn't just about style; their light manipulation abilities conceal a lethal intent. To add Lumatrix to your roster, you'll need to gather Light Essence from Battlegrounds, Saga Incursions, and Raids. The event to collect these resources runs through June 4th, so make sure to participate actively.
The new quest, Spy Games, features Black Widow teaming up with Spider-Woman to delve into the mysterious arrival of the Eidols. This thrilling narrative is filled with danger and deception, and runs from March 9th to May 7th. Together, these elite spies aim to unravel the sinister secrets behind Lumatrix's dazzling light show.
Deadpool also joins the fun with the Red & Dead’s Discount Shed event, running from April 25th to May 2nd. Convinced by Red Guardian, Deadpool offers a stash of special rewards, including event currency, crystals, and bonuses. Following closely, the Heart of Fire Sale from May 7th to 14th gives players a chance to snag valuable Champions and rewards through Heart of Fire crystals.
Later this month, the Thunderbolts Daily Super Event will shake up the seven-day supply drop, running from April 18th through May 2nd. By achieving milestones, players can earn Poolshields, which can be exchanged for rewards during Red & Dead’s Discount Shed. Additionally, daily supply drops will be available from April 25th to May 23rd, encouraging regular logins for more free rewards.
