Summary
A newMarvel Rivalsad has accidentally revealed that two new characters, Human Torch and The Thing, might be coming to the game in the near future.Marvel Rivalslaunched with an impressive roster of 33 characters, but fans have been eagerly waiting for more as the developers are yet to share their plans.
It’s been barely a few weeks since its launch, andMarvel Rivalshas already turned out to be a huge success. WhileMarvel Rivals’core premise is in the same vein as games likeOverwatchandPaladins, many think it’s superheroes help it stand out. The developers have also been actively adding new content to the game in the form of events, skins, and much more to keep fans engaged. However, it seems like that’s not where the offering stops as some exciting new characters might be coming to the game soon.
As spotted by Twitter user Rivals_Leaks, a newMarvel Rivalsad gives fans an insight into the upcoming content planned for the game. The promotion displays, likely by accident, two heroes on the character selection screen, Human Torch and The Thing, which arecurrently not in theMarvel Rivalsroster. Human Torch and The Thing are part of the iconic Fantastic Four team, and fans have been eagerly looking forward to their arrival in the game. While there is no mention of a release date, the community speculates that it might be coming pretty soon.
This is not the only set of characters forMarvel Rivalsthat were leaked in the past few weeks. In fact, a previous leak had suggested thatMr. Fantastic could also be coming toMarvel Rivalsin the near future. Therefore, Human Torch and the Thing being added to the game makes much more sense. The only strange part, which also is the cause of disappointment for some fans, is that there is no mention of Invisible Girl so far. However, considering all of these are leaks and speculation, neither Invisible Girl’s exclusion nor the rest of the Fantastic Four’s inclusion in the roster has been confirmed as of now.
Fans think these characters will be released in the game as part of the Season 1 update, which is slated to begin sometime in early January. In fact, another leak suggested thatUltron could also be added toMarvel Rivals’rostervery soon. If Ultron is released along with the threeFantastic Fourcharacters, it could be a well-rounded addition. This is because, as per leaks, it would mean that players will get one Vanguard, one Strategist, and one DPS character, which should suit an array of different play styles.
