Marvel Contest of Champions is rolling out a thrilling lineup of new content for April, featuring the much-anticipated addition of Spider-Woman. Alongside her, the game introduces another unique champion, setting the stage for exciting new gameplay dynamics.
The Backstory of Spider-Woman in the World of Marvel Contest of Champions
Spider-Woman, known as Jessica Drew, has a compelling origin story. As a child, she suffered from a serious illness due to uranium exposure near her home. In a desperate attempt to save her, her father, a brilliant geneticist, conducted an experimental procedure, injecting her with a mixture of spider DNA. After a long recovery, Jessica not only overcame the adverse effects of the experiment but also emerged with extraordinary spider-like abilities, ultimately becoming Spider-Woman. Players can unlock this new champion in Marvel Contest of Champions starting April 17th.
Before Spider-Woman's arrival, another champion will make their debut. Lumatrix, set to join the roster on April 9th, is a formidable assassin created by the Founders. Designed for infiltration and elimination, Lumatrix wields powerful light-based abilities, making him a dangerous opponent.
