Prepare For The Empire Of Doom In ‘Marvel Contest Of Champions’

As we get closer to December 18th, 2026, Doom’s influence continues to grow everywhere. Over in Marvel Contest of Champions, the villain takes over everything, allowing players to engage in the “Empire of Doom Saga.”

The first part introduces an all-new webcomic featuring the talents of voice actor Matthew Mercer.

Other new content includes the Doom’s Alliance Super Season. Everyone in the Contest is banding together to fight off the diabolical doctor. Joining an alliance is the only way to gain access to special Solo Objectives, a 28-Day Login Calendar, and Doom’s Alliance Super Season Realm Event. Receive rewards from the Realm Event by participating in Alliance Wars, Alliance Quests, Raids, Battlegrounds, Coliseum, and Beast’s Bounty Missions. The Doom’s Alliance Super Season runs from now until 9th December.

Beast’s Bounty Missions see players face off against challenging Champions. It runs from 18th November to 9th December. Also part of the Super Season is the Doom Event Tower, which runs from 4th November to 18th November. Members of the Thunderbolts, Avengers, and more train against the summoner in a race against time. There are two sieges as well, available from November 2nd to 4th January. Fight with other Summoners to Defenders before time runs out. The Overlord Sieges are handcrafted tentpole encounters that unlock when the community hits key weekly milestones, while Gatekeeper Sieges have continuously rotating mini-bosses to confront. It is limited to only four-star Champions.

Speaking of Beast, the character receives a rework that is available beginning 19th November. Another addition to Marvel Contest of Champions is Star-Lord (Kitty Pryde), who becomes available starting on 12th November. Players can also obtain the Victorious Four, Doom’s version of Marvel’s First Family, this month. 

New summoners can boost their roster with the Answer the Call Bundler Giveaway. It is a special 14 x Day Calendar that provides Rank Up resources, a four-star Awakening Gem and the characters Invisible Woman, Magneto (Red), Gambit, Captain America (OG), Shang-Chi, Shuri, Human Torch, Thor (OG), Mister Fantastic, and Professor X. 

Other new and continuing features include:
