Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic and the Fantastic Four Arrive
Marvel Rivals is gearing up for its Season 1 launch, "Eternal Night Falls," on January 10th at 1 AM PST. The season will introduce Mister Fantastic, kicking off the arrival of the entire Fantastic Four. Gameplay footage showcases Mister Fantastic utilizing his elastic abilities in combat against Dracula, highlighting his unique fighting style.
The Fantastic Four's debut will be staggered. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at Season 1's launch, with Human Torch and The Thing expected to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later.
NetEase Games, the developer, plans to release significant updates midway through each three-month season. This structured update schedule suggests a consistent flow of new content.
Leaked information hints at the abilities of other Fantastic Four members. Human Torch's kit reportedly includes flame walls and the potential for devastating fire tornadoes in conjunction with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, though details on his abilities remain scarce.
While speculation about characters like Blade and Ultron has circulated, NetEase Games has confirmed that the Fantastic Four will be the sole new additions in Season 1. This suggests a potential delay for Blade and Ultron until Season 2 or later. The absence of Blade, given Dracula's presence, has surprised some players.
Despite this, the anticipation for Season 1 is high, fueled by the upcoming content and the unique gameplay showcased for Mister Fantastic. The staggered release of the Fantastic Four and the promise of mid-season updates promise a dynamic and engaging experience for players.
