- Spider-Woman and Lumatrix debut as new playable characters - Spy Games storyline features Black Widow's mission - Thunderbolts-inspired event launching later this month
Following the Dark Phoenix storyline, Kabam has rolled out a fresh Marvel Contest of Champions update introducing two formidable new fighters. Spider-Woman brings her signature arachnid-enhanced combat skills when she joins the roster on April 17th. She's accompanied by Lumatrix, the first Eidol Champion of 2025, who made their explosive entrance on April 9th. This update also unlocks new quests, special events, and the continuation of Act 9.2 - all packed with valuable rewards.
Spider-Woman combines her spider-like abilities with elite spy training, while Lumatrix represents a dangerous new threat - a radiant assassin engineered by The Founders. Players can acquire Lumatrix by collecting Light Essence through Battlegrounds, Saga Incursions and Raids until June 4th.
