Project TAHITI’s biggest Marvel Heroes update adds Omega difficulty on October 21
Project TAHITI, the fan-run revival server for the shut-down action MMO Marvel Heroes, is getting what its team calls its “biggest update ever” on October 21. The update, known as TBUE, adds Omega difficulty, several new endgame modes, new gear, a broad hero balance pass, and a limited-time Doomsday event.
The update is still running on the old 1.52 client, so the TAHITI team says these additions are being handled through server-side workarounds rather than a new client download. That means reused and repurposed assets, but also some genuinely new endgame structure for players who’ve stuck with the revival.
- Omega difficulty is being added for Midtown, Industry City, Hightown, Limbo, Muspelheim, and Axis.
- Players will need to clear the Cosmic Trial and the new Omega Trial on each hero to access Omega patrol zones.
- Infinite Rift is a solo scaling challenge mode with hero-specific progression and weekly leaderboards.
- Boss Gauntlet is a party mode built around fighting waves of major villains with limited lives.
- Omega Training is a party mode focused on quick challenges, Infinity Point farming, and daily bonus rewards.
- Champion Commendations are being added as a new endgame currency, with a weekly cap of 350.
Gear is also getting a new ceiling. Omega Gear will drop in Omega difficulty content, while raid uniques are being added to Omega Muspelheim and Cosmic Axis. Players will also be able to spend Champion Commendations to upgrade i69 unique gear to i72 after completing Omega Training or Infinite Rift content.
The update also kicks off the setup for a Doomsday limited-time event, with Doctor Doom taking over Central Park from Ultron. The event will be accessed through the Waypoint Terminal once it arrives, though the team hasn’t given exact event dates yet. Planned rewards include Doctor Doom team-up and hero tokens, event costumes, and ultimate upgrades.
