Marvel Rivals is the new hero shooter that launched in December and has been a big hit among gamers during its abbreviated season 0 with a lot of initial heroes and modes. As the game gets ready for Marvel Rivals season 1 starting on Jan. 10, one of Marvel's iconic superhero teams is set to join the fray.
A trailer to show off the Fantastic Four premiered on Monday. Mr. Fantastic, Human Torch, Invisible Woman and The Thing were shown in the trailer as well as the big bad for the first season of Marvel Rivals, Dracula. Eternal Night Falls is the name of the first full season of the hero shooter and will add New York as a new map to play on.
We don't know a lot about the four heroes yet, including their specific abilities, but Marvel Rivals data miners who are combing through the game have already found a few details. The Human Torch and Mr. Fantastic will be part of the Duelist class, which means the two of them will use their abilities to deal some heavy damage. The Thing will likely be a Vanguard, also known as a tank, so will soak up all the damage. It's likely the Invisible Woman will be a Strategist, making use of her powers to support teammates and get the jump on competitors.
The Fantastic Four will be the first new characters on the already packed Marvel Rivals roster, which includes legendary figures like Spider-Man, Wolverine and Captain America, along with lesser-known ones such as Luna Snow, Peni Parker and a new fan favorite, Jeff the Land Shark. This release will likely set up the standard procedure for how developer NetEase Games introduces new characters.
With the addition of Dracula as the new bad villain for the first season, there's a strong possibility that Blade could also make an appearance soon. Data miners already leaked details about the vampire hunter last month.
Marvel Rivals is free to play on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series consoles.
