Marvel Rivals released trailers for the Human Torch, the Thing and the new map

This week is massive for hero shooters! Overwatch 2 just dropped Season 15, Marvel Rivals is on the cusp of its Season 1 second half (launching in just two days!), and even Team Fortress 2 received a Source SDK code update. But let's focus on the newest kid on the block.

Marvel Rivals developers have unveiled gameplay footage of the Human Torch and The Thing – completing the Fantastic Four roster – arriving in the game this Friday, February 21st.

The Human Torch (Johnny Storm), a Duelist class character, boasts impressive abilities: free flight, fiery projectiles, a scorching barrier to encircle opponents, and devastating fire tornadoes.

The Thing (Benjamin J. Grimm), a Defender class character, offers powerful support and disruptive tactics: short-range teammate throws and an earth-shattering ground slam that launches enemies skyward.

A brief teaser at the end of the gameplay reveal also showcased a new map: Central Park.

Get ready! This major update hits this Friday.
