NetEase Games has dropped an explosive trailer for Marvel Rivals Season 4, dubbed The Heart of the Dragon, set to launch on September 12, 2025. This major update not only introduces a breathtaking new map and a gripping narrative but also marks the game’s debut on PlayStation 4, expanding its superhero showdown to a wider audience. Packed with new heroes, mystical lore, and dynamic gameplay tweaks, the trailer sets the stage for an electrifying chapter in the Marvel Rivals saga.
The Season 4: The Heart of the Dragon trailer unveils K’un-Lun, a stunning new map rooted deep in Marvel’s martial arts mythology. Described as the nexus of the Seven Capitals in the Heart of Heaven, K’un-Lun blends ancient temples with ethereal, chi-infused landscapes. Its dynamic arenas feature crumbling structures and interactive elements, perfect for Marvel Rivals’ signature destructible environments. This map promises to test players’ tactical prowess, offering strategic depth for both aggressive and defensive playstyles in the game’s fast-paced 6v6 battles.
The trailer dives into a high-stakes narrative tied to the Timestream Entanglement, Marvel Rivals’ ongoing multiversal crisis. After the fall of Knull, the symbiote god, Hela finds herself imprisoned in the An’Hay-Zhidi, guarded by Dizang, the enigmatic Devil of the Eighth City. Dizang challenges Hela to redeem her treacherous past, but Angela, a fierce Asgardian warrior, demands retribution, clashing with K’un-Lun’s guardian over Hela’s fate. The tension escalates as Doctor Doom schemes to seize the Chronal Chi of Shou-Lao, the slumbering dragon protector of K’un-Lun, threatening to unravel the multiverse itself. Iron Fist emerges as the city’s stalwart defender, setting the stage for a cosmic showdown that blends personal vendettas with world-shattering stakes.
Marvel Rivals Season 4 introduces two fan-favorite heroes: Daredevil and Angela. Daredevil, the Hell’s Kitchen vigilante, brings his acrobatic finesse and heightened senses to the roster, wielding a martial arts-inspired moveset tailored to the K’un-Lun theme. His precise, agile combat style promises to excel in outmaneuvering foes. Angela, an Asgardian warrior known for her divine heritage, delivers a melee-focused playstyle with a mix of close-range attacks and limited flight capabilities, adding a brutal yet graceful edge to team compositions. Both heroes are designed to enhance Marvel Rivals’ Team-Up mechanics, offering fresh synergies that shake up competitive strategies.
Coinciding with the Season 4: The Heart of the Dragon update, Marvel Rivals will launch on PlayStation 4 on September 12, 2025. This expansion brings the game’s high-octane action to Sony’s last-generation console, complete with cross-platform play support for seamless team-ups across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Optimized to deliver the core Marvel Rivals experience—intense 6v6 battles, destructible environments, and a diverse Marvel roster—the PS4 release ensures accessibility without sacrificing the game’s chaotic charm.
The Season 4: The Heart of the Dragon Battle Pass, themed around K’un-Lun’s mystical lore, introduces a range of cosmetics, including skins, emotes, and effects that capture the season’s martial and spiritual vibe. The trailer also hints at balance changes and gameplay refinements to keep the meta dynamic, ensuring that both newcomers and veterans find fresh challenges. NetEase Games continues its commitment to evolving Marvel Rivals with regular updates, keeping the battlefield unpredictable and engaging.
The Heart of the Dragon propels Marvel Rivals into uncharted territory, blending K’un-Lun’s mystical allure with the high-octane action of Daredevil and Angela. The new map, gripping storyline, and PS4 launch signal NetEase Games’ ambition to keep the game at the forefront of the hero shooter genre. Since its initial release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on December 6, 2024, Marvel Rivals has captivated players, and Season 4 promises to elevate the chaos to new heights.
