Marvel Contest of Champions is a fighting game developed by Kabam Games that features fan-favorite Marvel superheroes and supervillains in an ultimate showdown. You get to control characters like Spider-Man, Iron Man, and the like and have them brawl each other to become the Ultimate Marvel Champion!
Just recently, Kabam has announced that two new characters will make their debut in the game – Morbious and Werewolf. Werewolf (also known as Werewolf by Knight) will debut on October 12, 2023 whereas Morbius will debut on October 26, 2023. You may recognize Morbius from the 2022 film starring Jared Leto, which gained a lot of internet meme fame.
Kabam has released several blog posts detailing the abilities of Werewolf and Morbius. Let’s check them out and see their potential as a fighter in Marvel Contest of Champions.
Morbius is a Science-class character with Bleed, Rupture, Fervor, Petrify, and Regeneration as his basic abilities. In terms of champion attributes, he has a near-perfect rating for survivability and damage. Morbius’ gameplay has him flying at opponents at incredible speeds using his Psionic Glide. Let’s preview some of his abilities.
- Psionic Glide
- When done, all incoming attacks passively miss Morbius until completing his first medium attack.
- Medium attack is passively unblockable and gains +981.75 attack rating.
