The much-anticipated Venom twerk emote in Marvel Rivals has finally arrived, and it's causing quite the sensation across the game's community. As of April 1, players jumping into NetEase Games' hero shooter are greeted by a spectacle of twerking Venoms, a sight that's as entertaining as it is widespread. This emote, dubbed the "Symbiote Boogie," was strategically released to coincide with April Fools' Day, fueling a frenzy of fun and chaos within the game and on social media.
The free availability of the emote has removed any barriers to entry, encouraging a wave of Marvel Rivals fans to join in the festivities. From casual dance moves amidst intense battles to entire matches filled with nothing but twerking Venoms, players are getting creative with how they incorporate the emote into their gameplay. The viral nature of these moments is evident across social media platforms, where clips of dancing Venoms are spreading like wildfire.
Even if you're not playing, you're likely to encounter the phenomenon on your social media feeds. The community's reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, with players sharing their favorite moments and celebrating the emote's addition to the game.
Introduced as part of April Fools' Day 2025, the "Symbiote Boogie" emote is set to stay beyond the end of Season 1, ensuring that Venom's dance moves will be a part of Marvel Rivals for the foreseeable future. Even those without the emote are enjoying the spectacle, gathering to witness the twerking antics of Eddie Brock. Here are some of the ways fans are celebrating:
