Everything In Marvel Rivals Version 20261113
Marvel Rivals Season 11 begins tonight. The patch notes put the update at 09:00 UTC on 13 November, which is 8pm AEDT on Friday by our conversion, with about two hours of maintenance.
NetEase also posted Dev Vision Vol. 23, in which Guangguang and Zhiyong walk through the season. The post says the start of Season 11 is also a chance to celebrate the game’s second anniversary.
Nightcrawler And The Incursion
The new hero is Nightcrawler. He arrives with his own lore entry, Leap of Faith, and a new serial story, Doomsday.
His Steadfast Swordsman Bundle, an X-Force costume and an emoji bundle join the store from the start of the season. The Gold-tier rank reward for Season 11.0 is the Hope Soared costume for Nightcrawler.
The Season 11 Battle Pass is called The Incursion, with 10 new sets of costumes. The notes name Emma Frost’s Seat of Winter, Mantis’s Chronal Harmony and Daredevil’s The Man Without Fear as highlights.
The Acts of Kurt Wagner, the seasonal story event, teams players up with Nightcrawler to decipher Destiny’s prophecy and run disaster relief operations, with rewards along the way.
A new round of Twitch drops includes the Will of Galacta costume for Devil Dinosaur. They run from 11pm AEDT on 13 November to 8pm AEDT on 11 December, both times our conversion.
Balance And Settings
A separate balance post adjusts 29 heroes across the Vanguard, Duelist and Strategist roles. Devil Dinosaur is singled out as “a dominant force among Vanguards” since his Season 10 buffs.
Controller players get an optional Aim Assist Target Prediction setting for switching between targets. An experimental CPU optimisation, switched on in the PC launcher, is expected to lift CPU performance by about 10%.
IGNITE Grand Finals
The IGNITE 2026 Grand Finals run from 23 to 29 November in Stockholm, with 12 teams. Four come from the Americas, four from EMEA, two from China and two from the Pacific series. In-game predictions for the group stage close at 11:50pm AEDT on 23 November, by our conversion.
Season 11 of the Marvel Rivals Championship also begins, and the notes call it the finale of the 2026 competitive year’s Championship Points.
