Compared to how dogged and redundant seasons could become inMarvel Rivalsprior, it’s fascinating to now have seasons lasting two months instead of three. There are obvious concerns with such a dramatic rework toMarvel Rivals’ content rollout, such as whether this will instill crunch on NetEase or result in content that is rushed in order to meet exasperating deadlines. But, if NetEase is confident in its ability, the breakneck pace of each season (which incorporates distinct front and back halves) should be a sweet treat for famished players.
Greater than any character adjustment or new playable character, perhaps the most blisteringly jarring change inMarvel RivalsSeason 3is its accelerated pacing, and a complete overhaul of players’ missions/challenges has been implemented to facilitate an increased number of earned Chrono Tokens while also allowing missions to span the whole season. This is sure to affect how a lot of players engage withMarvel Rivalson a daily basis, and it’ll be a little while before it can be determined if this mission restructuring marries well with the condensed nature of future seasons or satisfies players’ demand for in-game resources.

How Marvel Rivals’ New Weekly Missions May Affect Seasonal Progress
“Excessive” hero-specific missions being removed will surely prove to be a fantastic adjustment because, even if they’d ideally enable players to swap from their mains and try out a new character that they otherwise might not, it could be grating trying to grind rewards for a mission where a character whom the player dislikes must be played. Nonetheless, the way weekly missions have been reshaped is as follows for Season 3 and now features:
Players have until Season 3.5 to finish the Milano Repair Logs event, insinuating that a new event may replace it in the second half of the season.
Weekly missions are good in theory, but the wait for more can be excruciating depending on how early in the week players complete one week’s worth. Fortunately, there are enough missions in circulation at any given time, thanks in no small part toMarvel Rivals’ Milano Repair Logs event, that players can secure a steady stream of Chrono Token income for BattlePass goodies.
