Who discovered this leak about the racing mode?

X0XLEAK, a dataminer recognized for having revealed almost the entire Marvel Rivals roster before official announcements, was the first to report the presence of vehicle files. RivalsInfo then published a gameplay video showing the car in action.

What does the racing mode look like so far?

The video shows a very basic, placeholder car model, with the camera clipping through the ground in places. The system is clearly unfinished and very early in development, driving around the Hellfire Bay Beach social zone.

Has NetEase confirmed this racing mode?

No, NetEase has not confirmed anything at this stage. Although X0XLEAK is known for the reliability of their leaks, this racing mode remains unofficial and could still change or never release.

Marvel Rivals: an unexpected new mode reportedly found in the files

Q: Why is it called "Formula R"?

RivalsInfo puts forward this hypothesis based on the Formula R racing skins already distributed to several heroes such as Psylocke, Thor, Luna Snow and Black Cat since October 2025. This is a theory, not an official confirmation.

Marvel Rivals could soon be swapping its skill walls for a racing machine. According to leaks published in early August, files and a vehicle model were reportedly spotted in the game's data, suggesting a racing mode still in development.

Dataminer X0XLEAK was the first to mention these elements on X, without giving precise details on their appearance, while noting that these assets remain subject to change. A few hours later, the account RivalsInfo posted a short video showing a car - a very basic placeholder model, with the camera clipping through the ground in places - driving around the Hellfire Bay Beach social zone. RivalsInfo puts forward the hypothesis of a mode called Formula R, in reference to the racing skins already distributed to several heroes such as Psylocke, Thor, Luna Snow, or Black Cat since October 2025.

A leak to be taken with caution

Nothing has been confirmed by NetEase at this stage. But the credibility given to these leaks is not insignificant: X0XLEAK is known for having revealed almost the entire current roster of Marvel Rivals before their official announcements. The game is, in fact, one of the most datamined titles at the moment, with a history of eleven temporary modes already experimented with since its launch.

Still, the video shows a system that is clearly unfinished, likely still very early in its development. The link to the Formula R skins remains a theory, not a confirmation.
