Marvel Heroes Omega (1.07) Patch Notes Released

This week has seen the release of Marvel Heroes Omega on the Xbox One and the game has moved out of its Beta mode on the PS4, resulting in a new update to the game (1.07), which fixes some issues, changes to the prices of characters with Eternity Splinters plus brings some new Spider-Man: Homecoming content to the game.  Unfortunately its not all the content from the PC version, since events haven’t been launched on the console versions yet.  But here is a rundown of all the details from the patch notes :

Marvel Heroes Omega has officially launched on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One!

Now that we are officially out of Open Beta, today (June 30th) will be the last day you can grab one of our Founder’s store packs from PlayStation Network, as well as any of the exclusive Founder’s rewards and associated unlocks, such as being able to play Iron Fist before everyone else!

As a token of appreciation for all of those who have supported Marvel Heroes Omega during the beta phases, all players who have purchased at least one Founder’s store pack will be receiving an exclusive Founder’s Flourish that will forever show you were among the first wave of superheroes that joined the fight in Marvel Heroes Omega. These Founder’s Flourish items will be delivered directly to eligible accounts in the future; we’ll announce on the Marvel Heroes Omega forums when these begin rolling out to players later next month.

With the Xbox One version of Marvel Heroes Omega now launching today, Founder’s Packs will be made available in the Xbox Live Marketplace as well! These Founder’s Packs will be available until August 31st, 2017. We’ll have more info on how Xbox One users will be able to acquire their own Founder’s Flourish at a later date.

Thank you all so much for supporting Marvel Heroes Omega!

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING
To celebrate the upcoming theatrical release of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming in theaters July 7th, we’ve added a new Spider-Man: Homecoming Loot Box in the in-game store that has a number of exclusive cosmetic items and costumes to score, including:

  • Spider-Man Homecoming Homemade (Hood Up) Costume
  • Spider-Man Homecoming Homemade Costume
  • Spider-Man Back in Black Costume
  • Spider-Man Spider-Gwen Enhanced Costume
  • Spider-Man Homecoming Suit Costume
  • Spider-Man Amazing Costume
  • Iron Man Spider-Man Homecoming Costume
  • Holo-Stark Flourish
  • Spider-Man Logo Flourish
  • Vulture Wings Flourish

As with all of our Loot Boxes, you also have a chance for a variety of other rewards, including boxes of Marvelous Essence, so if you don’t get exactly what you’re looking for you can exchange your saved up Marvelous Essence for various Loot Box rewards by speaking with Moondragon in Avenger’s Tower.

We’ve also added a new Spider-Man: Homecoming pack to the PlayStation Store and Xbox Live Marketplace!

(PS4) MARVELOUS LOOT BOX & COSTUME CHANGES

With this update, players’ chances of receiving costumes from a loot box will improve substantially. Marvelous Loot Boxes now hold costumes for these rarity tables: Rare, Epic, Cosmic, and Ultra Cosmic! If players receive a duplicate costume within a loot box, they will receive a set amount of Marvelous Essence in place of that costume.

In addition, new hero-specific Ultimate Upgrade Tokens and Experience Tokens will also be included as possible rewards within Marvelous Loot Boxes boxes. In case you missed it, boxes of 10, 25, and 50 Marvelous Essence were also recently added as possible rewards within Marvelous Loot Boxes with the previous update.

As part of these changes, players will also now be able to earn Marvelous Loot Boxes in-game just by playing! Players will earn one-time boxes the first time they reach levels 5, 12, 15 and 30 with any Hero. In addition, one Marvelous Loot Box will be awarded to every Hero that the player reaches level 60 with! These Marvelous Loot Boxes will be granted to players retroactively to existing players that have already leveled Heroes to these milestones during Open Beta.

Please note that to receive your level 60 Heroes’ Marvelous Loot Boxes after this update for Heroes that were already level 60, you will need to swap to each level 60 Hero in your roster after the update.

With larger loot tables and improved drop rates being applied to all loot boxes, players should also expect changes to costume availability. Beginning with this update, individual costumes will no longer be sold directly for Gs within the in-game store. Costumes will instead become available as part of current and future loot boxes.

The affected costumes are:

She will carry all costumes in the loot boxes available at that time.

Starting today, these will be the costumes in rotation within the Marvelous Loot Box:
