Marvel Contest of Champions' Rise of X motion comic teases Professor X and Apocalypse

Marvel Contest of Champions has teased the impending arrival of Professor X and Apocalypse via an all-new motion comic by the name of Rise of X. Both characters are currently expected to land this month.

The game's latest update includes a number of balance changes, bug fixes, and more. Full patch notes can be seen right here.

On top of that, Kabam has also revealed a variant cover for Marvel's ongoing House of X comic series. The variant, drawn by Pepe Larraz, is a reprint of House of X #1. You can get a good look at it below.

The House of X series sees Charles Xavier unveil his master plan for bringing mutantkind out of the shadows. It was written by Secret Wars, Avengers, and Fantastic Four writer Jonathan Hickman.

If you're in the market for a polished mobile fighter, you'll find Marvel Contest of Champions up for download from both the App Store and Google Play as a free-to-play game. And be sure to give the motion comic embedded above a quick watch if you fancy seeing the full Professor X and Apocalypse tease.
