Marvel Rivals is gearing up for the Season 2 launch. However, the players will face a brief interruption, as NetEase will take servers offline for maintenance. The downtime is important for deploying the new content, including Emma Frost's arrival and the fresh Battle Pass. Here is everything you need to know about the ongoing maintenance schedule and when you will be able to jump back into the action.

Marvel Rival Season 2 server downtime and maintenance schedule

The Marvel Rivals will remain offline for 2 to 3 hours, starting April 11 at 2:00 AM PDT. Across the other time zones, the time will be translated to,

Time Zone	Time
Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEST)	7:00 PM �?10:00 PM
Japan Standard Time (JST)	6:00 PM �?9:00 PM
Indian Standard Time (IST)	2:30 PM �?5:30 PM
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)	9:00 AM �?12:00 PM

NetEase has warned that the maintenance could end early or run a bit longer. It is dependent on technical progress. The players must expect the server queues after the game is online because of its high demand.

What is new in Season 2?

The updates will introduce Emma Frost as the playable Vanguard-class hero. It will bring her diamond form and mind-control abilities right to the battlefield. As for her Psionic Seduction Ultimate, it will disrupt enemies by locking abilities and pulling them right to her.
The new Domination map�?Hellfire Gala: Krakoa, is also about to debut. It will bring fresh tactical opportunities. Additionally, the Season 2 Battle Pass comes with emotes, exclusive skins, and other cosmetics. While some of them are free, the others are locked behind the premium tiers.

How to prepare for an upcoming update?

While the servers are down, the players could,

Pre-download the patch (if it is available) to jump into the game faster.
Check the official X or Discord account of Marvel Rivals to get some real-time updates.
Plan the new team comps, around the abilities of Emma Frost.

After the maintenance ends, you can expect a surge of players trying to test new content. So, matchmaking might be a bit slower than it is usually.
While NetEase aims for a smoother rollout, be prepared for some unexpected delays. If the servers remain down after the said timeline, players can see some extended compensation rewards like bonus Battle Pass XP or the in-game currency to make up for inconvenience, by the developers.
