Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic Takes Center Stage Against Dracula
Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, will introduce Mister Fantastic in a showdown against Dracula. This initial gameplay reveal showcases Mister Fantastic leveraging his intellect and incredible elasticity in combat. He utilizes his powers to punch, grapple, and even deliver devastating slams, showcasing a surprising strength alongside his agility. His ultimate ability resembles a powerful aerial assault, reminiscent of The Winter Soldier.
The Fantastic Four's Staggered Arrival
While Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will debut with Season 1, Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to release significant updates midway through each three-month season. Speculation exists regarding a potential Seasonal Bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's launch.
Leaked Abilities and Future Roster Additions
Recent leaks suggest Human Torch's abilities will involve flame-based area control and synergistic attacks with Storm, creating devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, though his abilities remain undisclosed. While Blade and Ultron were previously rumored for early inclusion, NetEase has confirmed that the Fantastic Four will be the sole additions for Season 1, potentially delaying characters like Ultron and Blade to future seasons. This has surprised some players, given Dracula's connection to Blade.
The anticipation surrounding the new season and the upcoming additions to the roster is high among Marvel Rivals players. The staggered release of the Fantastic Four, coupled with the potential for future characters like Blade and Ultron, promises a dynamic and evolving gameplay experience.
