Gorr the God Butcher will debut in Marvel Rivals Season 10 on September 11, 2026.
Release Window and Server Downtime
Season 10 (v20260911) launches at 09:00 UTC on the set date. NetEase Games has announced a minimum two‑hour server maintenance preceding the release, meaning players will need to wait before jumping into combat.
Fresh Characters, Stories and Kit Rework
Gorr enters as a melee‑focused Duelist wielding the Necrosword, which morphs into a bow, scythe and additional forms. His minions, Black Berserkers, aid in wiping enemies, while Symbiote Assimilation provides brisk mobility across the arena.
Three new lore comics arrive, namely “Butcher’s Blasphemy,” “All Gods Will Die” (Gorr story) and “Truth Be Told” (Loki).
Scarlet Witch receives an updated kit: two new abilities and the ability to mark foes with Chaos Mark.
Store Offerings, Battle Passes and Reflexive Content

Story Events, Esports and Ranking Rewards

Technical Enhancements and Bug Fixes
Intel XeSS 3 Frame Generation support has been added, allowing up to three AI‑generated frames to interpose between rendered frames on compatible Intel GPUs, improving smoothness and potentially lowering input lag when used alongside Intel Xe Low Latency.
Multiple hero abilities were corrected: Cloak & Dagger’s Laggy Veil now synchronises casts, Devil Dinosaur’s accidental escort glitch was removed, Rocket’s Krakoan misstep was patched, Winter Soldier’s ultimate reset was fixed, Black Cat’s footstep audio was optimised, and Emma Frost’s Spirit Breaker sound trigger issue was resolved. Visual clutter from Devil Dinosaur’s beams and barriers was reduced, and speedee emote glitches for Ultron, Jeff and Devil Dinosaur were addressed. Peni Parker’s Cyber‑Web Snare cooldown was repaired.
Map collision issues on K’un‑Lun: Heart of Heaven were fine‑tuned to align better with model geometry.
