Marvel Rivals is stirring up some talk with its upcoming patch, hinting at a rather unexpected addition: a Venom twerking emote. Players are likely gearing up for an increase in Venom’s popularity as they expect the chance to see the symbiote showcase his dance moves.
Between April 1st and April 4th, players who complete the board in Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure event can claim this surprising in-game reward. This “special April Fool’s Easter Egg gift” promises a “hidden twist surprise,” but what could it be? The hint lies on the game’s official website, where instead of a question mark, there appears to be an outline suggesting that Venom might be throwing it back.
The outlined figure does resemble a large, muscular frame with prominent glutes, leading many players to speculate it’s none other than Venom himself. The idea of a “Venom twerk” has circulated among fans for some time now; they’ve been vocal about wanting such an emote. Initially, skepticism prevailed over whether Netease would bring this fan request to life. However, doubts remain as players wonder if this could be part of an elaborate prank related to April Fool’s Day. Yet one can’t help but think it would be cruel to tease such a cosmetic only to retract it later. Players must collect all items from Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure board to snag this reward when available.
Cosmetics—especially hero costumes — have become central to Marvel Rivals’ live-service model. It’s noteworthy that Netease reported revenue of $2.9 billion during the previous financial quarter, reflecting a 1.5% rise compared to earlier figures. In January alone, estimates suggested that Marvel Rivals contributed around $136 million to those earnings.
