Marvel Rivals Season 3: The Abyss Awakens In the wake of the Timestream Entanglement, Knull stirs deep within Klyntar’s core, stretching his shadowed hands across the cosmos. Power promised by the dark symbiote god beckons the awakening of a new queen. The Phoenix arrives from across the stars to erase Klyntar before the darkness can rise again! However, she'll require unlikely aid from a warrior of two worlds who lives to fight against the tide of night. As the god of the symbiotes and the Phoenix Force collide, will you burn with the light of creation or embrace the darkness? 🔥 The Abyss Awakens begins on July 11 UTC - Rise again, Rivals! 🔥

Insomniac better have paid Cates and Stegman for Spider-Man 2. Like it's kinda genuinely really shitty if they didn't see anything for this game. There's hardly any Venom stuff tbh but what's there is ripped straight from their work
