Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic Leads the Charge Against Dracula
Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, will introduce Mister Fantastic as a playable character, showcasing his intellect in a battle against Dracula. This marks the beginning of a thrilling storyline.
The Fantastic Four's arrival is confirmed for Season 1, though staggered. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman debut alongside the season launch, while the Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to follow approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans substantial mid-season updates for each three-month season.
Gameplay footage reveals Mister Fantastic's unique abilities. He utilizes his elastic powers for powerful punches, combining foes with his stretchy limbs, and even inflating his physique for devastating blows. His ultimate ability involves repeated powerful slams onto the enemy team. Speculation exists about a potential Seasonal Bonus for the Fantastic Four, but this remains unconfirmed.
A Sneak Peek at the Remaining Fantastic Four
While details are scarce, leaked information suggests the Human Torch will control the battlefield with flame walls and collaborate with Storm to unleash deadly fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but his abilities are currently unknown.
Future Prospects: Beyond Season 1
Initial speculation pointed to Blade and Ultron as potential launch characters, but NetEase Games has clarified that only the Fantastic Four will debut in Season 1. This suggests Ultron's release has been pushed back to Season 2 or later. The absence of Blade, considering Dracula's presence, has also surprised some players. Despite these surprises, the abundance of upcoming content has generated significant player enthusiasm for Marvel Rivals' future.
