Following the epic conclusion of the Dark Phoenix saga, Kabam has launched a major update for *Marvel Contest of Champions*, introducing two exciting new fighters just in time for 2025. Spider-Woman swings into the game with her elite espionage skills and spider-enhanced powers, while Lumatrix debuts as the first Eidol Champion of the year—bringing mystery, menace, and mastery of light-based abilities to The Contest.

Spider-Woman officially joins the fray on April 17th, offering players a versatile champion suited for both stealthy tactics and high-impact combat. Prior to that, on April 9th, Lumatrix makes their grand entrance as a dazzling yet deadly assassin born from the machinations of The Founders. Unlike traditional champions, Lumatrix wields light manipulation not for spectacle, but for destruction—making them a unique addition to any roster.

To unlock Lumatrix, players must gather Light Essence through Battlegrounds, Saga Incursions, and Raids during the limited-time event running until June 4th. If you're curious how they stack up against existing champions, be sure to check out our latest Marvel Contest of Champions tier list.

Spy Games: A Black Widow & Spider-Woman Adventure

Kicking off on March 9th and running through May 7th, the Spy Games quest brings together two of Marvel’s most skilled operatives—Black Widow and Spider-Woman—as they investigate the origins of the Eidols.
