Marvel Rivals test server players are discovering that Devil Dinosaur is already the silliest character in the game, thanks to his head being too big.
Earlier this week, Marvel Rivals confirmed the heroes coming to Season 8 of the multiplayer shooter. While Cyclops's arrival in the game may be the main event for a ton of Marvel fans, it also came with one of the most inspired choices for the game's already massive roster. Sure, there may not be Doctor Doom, Ghost Rider, or Ant-Man yet, but the devs have added Devil Dinosaur to the game, so who cares?
For those unaware, Devil Dinosaur is a giant red Tyrannosaurus Rex joining the roster of Tanks (or to use their Rivals-specific name, Vanguards) with abilities like shooting a giant laser beam from its mouth and – as expected from a dinosaur – the ability to let out a massive roar and chomp on your enemies.

Devil Dinosaur is best known in my house thanks to the Disney+ series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, which I haven't watched, but features a great song from the former frontman of 1990s power pop group Jellyfish, Andy Sturmer. That song is called "Go Big," and in an unfortunate bit of irony, that advice has proved to be a downfall for the character.
Test server players have been showing off some of the new character, and as some players on Reddit have noticed, Devil Dinosaur is having trouble making it through some of the areas of the maps in Marvel Rivals. Naturally, this also has some players concerned, as many worry it locks Devil Dinosaur – who already has a giant hitbox – into just the main routes. Some players are reveling in how silly this is, with one Reddit user saying, "Honestly, I love it, I wanna play as a T. rex, a T. rex shouldn't fit through a normal hallway... IDK if this is balanced but all I know is I get to play as a Dinosaur in a Hero Shooter."

But that's not Devil Dinosaur's only quirk either, as streamer kayjii noticed live that the character isn't able to melee in front of him (on account of the small arms, I guess). Rather, Devil Dinosaur throws it back and whacks people with his tail, which only adds to the character's comedic value. I don't know how comp-viable he will be, but I will be playing the dinosaur, and you can't stop me.
