Mister Fantastic Joins Marvel Rivals Roster

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic Leads the Fantastic Four Charge

Marvel Rivals is gearing up for its Season 1 launch, "Eternal Night Falls," on January 10th at 1 AM PST, and NetEase Games has unveiled a sneak peek at Mister Fantastic's gameplay. The intellectually-gifted hero will face off against Dracula, setting the stage for an exciting storyline.

The Fantastic Four's arrival is confirmed for Season 1, though not all at once. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will debut with the season launch, with Human Torch and The Thing anticipated to join the fray six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to release significant updates midway through each three-month season.

Gameplay footage showcases Mister Fantastic's unique abilities. He utilizes his elastic powers for powerful punches, grappling multiple opponents simultaneously, and unleashing a devastating ultimate move reminiscent of The Winter Soldier. Speculation abounds regarding a potential seasonal bonus tied to The Fantastic Four's introduction.

Leaked information suggests Human Torch's abilities will involve flame-based area control and synergy with Storm for devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but his abilities remain undisclosed.

While characters like Blade and Ultron were previously rumored, NetEase Games confirms that the Fantastic Four will be the sole additions in Season 1. This contradicts earlier leaks suggesting Ultron's inclusion at launch, hinting at a possible Season 2 or later release. The absence of Blade, a notable Dracula adversary, has also surprised some fans. Despite these surprises, the anticipation surrounding Marvel Rivals' future remains high.
