Dark Phoenix Saga Launches in Marvel Contest of Champions with Jean Grey, Bastion, and New Eidolon

Kabam is set to enhance Marvel Contest of Champions with exciting updates that include the launch of the Dark Phoenix Saga, the introduction of new Champions, and the unveiling of a new character type known as Eidols. This month, the game also celebrates its powerful female characters, offering players the chance to influence the 2025 Champion rework.

Jean Grey and Bastion are the newest additions to The Contest, each bringing unique abilities and a compelling storyline. You can recruit Jean Grey to your roster starting March 13th, and Bastion will follow on March 27th. Leading up to their arrival, the Dark Phoenix Saga will commence on March 3rd, challenging Jean Grey and the X-Men to battle dangerous variants in an epic new quest.

The lore of Marvel Contest of Champions will further expand with the introduction of more Eidols, continuing the Founders storyline. Following the debut of Isophyne in December 2024, three more Eidols will be introduced throughout 2025, each with a unique sourcing system. The next Eidol, Lumatrix, will make its debut on March 5th and will be available until June 4th.

Lumatrix, designed by The Founders as a master infiltrator, specializes in spying, sabotage, and assassination with unmatched precision. Constructed from ISO-8 crystals, Lumatrix possesses extraordinary light manipulation abilities. While it dazzles with its performance, beneath its surface lies a ruthless weapon designed to eliminate enemies while remaining undetected.

To celebrate the powerful women of The Contest, Kabam has teamed up with seven female developers and content creators, each representing a different Champion. Players can participate in Solo Objectives and Realm Events to help decide which Champion will be revamped in 2025.
