How to unlock hidden boss in Marvel Rivals Blood Hunt

To unlock the hidden Kingpin boss, you need to complete three secret missions while playing in Extreme or better difficulty to earn three keys. As the match progresses, you'll be given three special tasks from Kingpin.

These are temporarily displayed in the upper middle area of the screen, right above your main objective. Since there's a lot going on in each fight and they only pop up for a brief ******* of time, they're very easy to miss. Here's everything you need to get done to unlock and face Kingpin.

• Make it to Extreme difficulty. You can only find and fight the secret boss after first working your way through the lower levels.
• During phase four, break the Arcane Barrier within 90 seconds and get the entire team into the circle on the other side of it. This is the level where you're on a bridge with a swarm of enemies.
• During phase seven, find and destroy the Bloodclot Buds. These are small, glowing red bushes situated around the area. They only appear after your team actually starts this fight by entering the circle. The number of Bloodclot Buds you need to find is the same as the number of players on your team.
• During phase 12, break the sealing magic circle within 120 seconds. For this section, you need to find and destroy all red crystals that pop up on either side of the map. As you do, the sealing magic circle will steadily be depleted. As long as you get this done within the time limit, you're good to go.

Break the sealing magic circle in Marvel Rivals Blood Hunt

The third and final task you need to get done happens in phase 12, when you need to break the sealing magic circle by destroying all red crystals that appear around the battlefield. They pop up in both areas on either side of the bridge as the round progresses, so be sure to check all around the two towers to find and break them all.

As long as you're able to survive and pass this phase, you'll earn the third and final key, securing your boss fight with Kingpin and unlocking the final, secret stage. You still have to face and

How to beat Kingpin secret boss in Marvel Rivals Blood Hunt

To beat Kingpin, you'll need to dish out a lot of damage and be extremely careful to avoid his special moves, as they can take you out in just one hit. Kingpin isn't anywhere near as scary as Dracula, but he's certainly a lot tougher than Ratatoskr and

, and has a few killer moves you'll need to watch out for. Here's what to keep in mind when taking on this enemy.

• Watch out for his trance move. When he uses this, you'll enter a stunned, frozen state where you can't move. Spam the movement controls to quickly break out of it before he kills you.
• Be careful of his Charged Implosion. When you see Kingpin create a massive, light green bubble around himself, he's prepping a huge, one-shot explosion that'll instantly kill you. To counter this move, you can either jump into the dome with him and try to deal enough damage to stun him before the explosion occurs, or instead seek cover around the map, like a car or food stand, to hide behind when it happens.
• Watch out for his jumps. Kingpin occasionally leaps way up high and comes crashing back down, dealing devastating AoE damage to anyone nearby. Try to get far away from him when this happens to stay safe.
