Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic Takes Center Stage Against Dracula
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 iconic hero will utilize his intellect and incredible elasticity in a showdown against Dracula, setting the stage for an exciting narrative.
The Fantastic Four's arrival is confirmed for Season 1, though not all members will debut simultaneously. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at the season's start, with Human Torch and The Thing expected to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to deliver significant updates midway through each three-month season.
Mister Fantastic's Gameplay Revealed
A recently released trailer showcases Mister Fantastic's unique abilities. He stretches his limbs to deliver powerful punches, grapple multiple opponents, and even inflates his body for devastating blows. His ultimate ability involves repeated powerful slams onto the enemy team, reminiscent of The Winter Soldier's attacks. While speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four, confirmation remains pending.
Leaked Information Hints at Other Fantastic Four Members
While details on the other Fantastic Four members are scarce, leaked information suggests Human Torch's kit will include flame walls for battlefield control and the potential for fire tornado combos with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but his abilities remain undisclosed.
Season 1 Roster and Future Plans
Despite earlier speculation, NetEase Games confirmed that the Fantastic Four will be the only new characters introduced in Season 1. This dispels rumors of Blade and Ultron's inclusion at launch, with the latter potentially slated for Season 2 or later. The absence of Blade, considering Dracula's presence, has also surprised some players. Despite these surprises, the anticipation for Marvel Rivals' future is high, fueled by the upcoming content and exciting gameplay revealed so far.
