Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic's Debut and Fantastic Four Arrival
Marvel Rivals is gearing up for its Season 1 launch, "Eternal Night Falls," on January 10th at 1 AM PST, with a focus on the Fantastic Four. The first playable character from this iconic team, Mister Fantastic, will be battling Dracula, showcasing his intellect-driven combat style. A gameplay trailer reveals his stretchy abilities, including powerful punches, enemy slams, and a devastating ultimate move reminiscent of The Winter Soldier.
While Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at Season 1's launch, Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games has confirmed that all four Fantastic Four members will debut within Season 1, which is planned to run for roughly three months, with a significant mid-season update.
Leaked information suggests exciting abilities for the remaining Fantastic Four members. Human Torch may control the battlefield with flame walls and even team up with Storm for devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard-class character, although details about his abilities are scarce.
Initial speculation about the inclusion of characters like Blade and Ultron in Season 1 has been dispelled by NetEase Games. The developers have confirmed that the Fantastic Four will be the sole additions in this initial season, suggesting a potential Season 2 or later debut for Blade and Ultron. This has surprised some players, given Dracula's association with Blade.
Despite the absence of some initially anticipated characters, the upcoming content has generated considerable excitement within the Marvel Rivals community.
