Marvel Rivals is getting its first seasonal event soon, which'll let you run around as everyone's favourite land shark to play some legally-distinct Splatoon

Marvel Rivals is off to a solid start, considering how many live service shooters have failed to hit the mark this year—and it's aimed to keep that momentum with its first seasonal event starting December 20, dubbed the "Marvel Rivals Winter Celebration", for which Netease released a trailer earlier today and, hold on, wait a minute, is that baby shark Splatoon?

Named "Jeff's Winter Splash", this 4v4 mode will see barber-shark quartets of players trying to blast the map with their particular colour in a way that is hopefully legally airtight, given Nintendo's recent big patent swings. Completing tasks in the event'll also let players get that fetching little jacket for the game's most adorable war crime. Just… try not to think too hard about the fact you're leaving the map covered in ice vomit.
