Marvel Rivals continues to roll out new content, and after a slower month with Season 10.5, it’s finally time to return to normality with Season 11. To mark the occasion, servers are being shut down on November 13, as updates roll out across the board.
Season 11 is a notable milestone for Marvel Rivals, as it marks the final Season of 2026, as well as the arrival of a fan-favorite X-Men member: Nightcrawler. Bamfing into the roster as a Strategist, his addition alone is bound to lure players in for the start of a new Season.
If you’re desperate to get back into Marvel Rivals, here’s when the servers are down and when you can expect them to return.
When Will Marvel Rivals Servers Be Back Up?
Marvel Rivals servers are shutting down on November 13 at 1 AM PT, and they’re expected to be out for around two hours.
That means you can expect the servers to spring back to life and for Season 11 to begin at roughly 3 AM PT, though NetEase has made it abundantly clear that server return times can vary based on maintenance progress, so don’t take this as gospel.
That said, it’s been a pretty reliable process in the past, so barring an unusual outcome, you should only need to be away from Marvel Rivals for roughly two hours.
If you’re not from the West Coast and want to know how the maintenance impacts you, you’re in luck, as we’ve broken down the timings for a variety of different time zones, as seen in the table below:

What’s In The Marvel Rivals November 13 Update?
There’s plenty to unpack from the November 13 update, as it marks the start of Season 11 in Marvel Rivals.
Set to last for four weeks, Nightcrawler is obviously the most notable addition, but there’s still plenty more to look forward to, including the two-year anniversary of Marvel Rivals!
Celebrations will last for the majority of the month, with notable events including Rivals Day 2026, Galacta Center opening in Times Square, and a community ball drop on December 5 to mark the big occasion.
And then there’s Season 11.5, set to begin on December 11, where you can expect Dracula to join the roster, as was teased in the Season 11 reveal.
