A month full of thrills and chills looms ahead as Kabam unveiled two new Champions to its popular mobile fighter MARVEL Contest of Champions – man by day and Werewolf By Night joins along with the living vampire, Morbius! Players can watch the two prowl the night and lurk in the shadows as they battle it out in an all-new Champion Reveal Trailer Champions of the Damned. With over 250 Champions in The Contest, players can also add other classic Super Heroes and Villains from Blade and Man-Thing to Elsa Bloodstone and more.
This month also brings many treats as Kabam prepares to host their first-ever LIVE fan celebration event and tournament – Battlerealm Brawl – taking place in the Vancouver area at The Gaming Stadium (Richmond, BC) on October 20 and 21! Fans can acquire tickets for free to attend in person or tune into Kabam’s Twitch as they Livestream the tournament that weekend.
Here is a quick look at what The Contest has in store this month:
Something runs afoul in The Battlerealm swamp! Join Midnight Sons veterans Blade and Elsa Bloodstone as they investigate disappearances linked to the quagmire landscape. Meet with WEREWOLF BY NIGHT and a cast of monstrous curiosities as the mysteries of the wetlands reveal themselves and the diabolical machinations of the maligned genius MORBIUS begin to come into focus. Can this team expose the truth and put to rest the chaos manifesting itself and rescue those who have been wronged by the Living Vampire?
Get to know some of the character with their newly released character bios below!
Upon inheriting the curse of lycanthropy on his 18th birthday, Jack Russell began his lifelong struggle with his werewolf alter-ego. Always pursued by beast hunters, criminals and other creatures alike, Jack regularly fights against those who seek to control his werewolf persona for their own purposes. Over time, Jack came to accept the beast within him and gained the ability to transform at will, only feeling the urge to transform on night of the full moon, thus becoming the Werewolf By Night.
In a hopeless attempt to cure his rare blood disease, Dr. Michael Morbius mutated himself with vampire bat DNA only to become a bloodthirsty pseudo-Vampire. Now he must fight a losing battle to overcome his insatiable desire to drink blood, which sustains his powerful monstrous form.
Set your reminders! Werewolf By Night arrives in-game on Oct. 12 and Morbius on Oct. 26. In the meantime, players can now see the two battle it out in the all-new Champion Reveal trailer and catch up on The Battlerealm with character Deep Dive and Special Moves content on the official MARVEL Contest of Champions YouTube channel.
