"Creative Director Guangguang and Lead Combat Designer Zhiyong present the content for Season 2.5, launching on May 30. Ultron becomes a playable hero, a new map is added, plus a major overhaul of the Team-Up system: 6 added, 4 removed, 1 adjusted."

Season 2.5 launches on May 30, 2025. The focus is on Ultron as the first "droid" hero in the roster and the largest overhaul of the Team-Up Abilities system since the game's release.

Key Highlights

  • 🤖 New Hero: Ultron. Marvel's adaptive artificial intelligence debuts as a strategist—managing support drones and controlling the battlefield.
  • 🗺️ New Map. An addition to the competitive mode rotation.
  • 🔧 Team-Up Rework. In this version: 6 new synergies added, 4 outdated ones removed, and 1 adjusted. Since Season 0, over 50% of all Team-Ups have been reworked—the system has reached a mature state.

Why Such a Major Team-Up Overhaul

Developers note that many synergies from the game's launch lineup (Season 0) either saw little use in actual matches or, conversely, dominated and defined the meta. In Vol. 6, the focus shifts toward more "meaningful" hero combinations: new synergies require coordinated team play, while removed ones are those that either broke the balance or simply went unused.
