Marvel Rivals Season 10 Adds Gorr the God Butcher and Temporarily Removes Loki
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Marvel Rivals is shaking up its roster for season 10 by introducing Gorr the God Butcher and temporarily removing Loki following an in-universe death in the announcement trailer.
NetEase Games just dropped a major reveal for Marvel Rivals season 10, confirming that Gorr the God Butcher is joining the character roster. The announcement trailer shows Gorr driving All-Black the Necrosword through Loki, which has temporarily resulted in Loki being marked as dead and removed from the active character selection pool. It is a bold narrative integration for a live service hero shooter, and players will not have to wait long to see how the story unfolds when the new season launches on September 11.
Gorr enters the fray as a duelist, bringing a flexible kit featuring weapon morphing, map traversal through dashing and teleporting, and a passive ability that spawns phantom Black Berserkers upon defeating enemies. His ultimate ability supercharges All-Black for a devastating crowd control barrage. Alongside the new character, season 10 introduces the God Quarry domination map and the Jeff's Dream Eater event, which features a fresh batch of pajama cosmetics for the hero lineup.
NetEase confirmed that Gorr will be the sole new hero addition for this update, shifting the focus of the season's latter half toward the Path to Doomsday event. As reported by Polygon, phases three and four of this event will introduce MCU Avengers themed game modes. This approach lets the development team lean heavily into seasonal storytelling without bloating the roster all at once, keeping the competitive meta stable while the narrative takes center stage.
