NetEase Games gave fans a sneak peek at the upcoming gameplay featuring The Fantastic Four’s Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals. This popular superhero group will join the Marvel Rivals roster alongside new maps, a brand-new game mode, and an updated battle pass. Gamers will be thrilled to know that Season 1: Eternal Darkness Falls is set to launch on January 10 at 1 AM PST, bringing all this exciting content.
Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are ready to make their debut with the season’s launch. However, fans will need to exercise patience for Human Torch and The Thing, who will arrive later in the season. According to a developer video from NetEase Games, each season spans roughly three months with a major update mid-season, arriving six or seven weeks after the season starts. That’s when players can expect Human Torch and The Thing to join Marvel Rivals.
Marvel Rivals featured a first glance at the gameplay focusing on the latest hero Strategist, Invisible Woman. In the showcased video, her primary attack is beneficial as it damages foes while simultaneously healing allies. To ward off nearby threats, she possesses a knockback ability that keeps enemies at bay. True to her character, she can vanish for short periods, turning invisible during combat. To top it off, the trailer flaunts her agility with a double jump and shows her skill of erecting a protective shield for her teammates. Her ultimate move creates a vast zone of invisibility, cloaking the battlefield from distant enemy attacks.
In another recent reveal, NetEase Games showcased Mister Fantastic’s gameplay in Marvel Rivals. The video highlighted him as a character capable of stretching and attacking enemies while toughening up his defense. Fans have noted that he appears to be a blend of Vanguard and Duelist, given his heightened durability compared to standard DPS characters.
While excitement is high for The Fantastic Four joining the game, some players looked forward to Blade appearing in Marvel Rivals’ Season 1. Data miners have unearthed details about Blade’s abilities and full character model in the game’s files. With Dracula unveiled as the season’s antagonist, many gamers believed that Blade, the famed vampire hunter, would soon follow suit. Unfortunately, Blade remains out of reach for now. Despite this slight disappointment, the community is buzzing with anticipation about what NetEase Games plans to unveil next.
Turning to the game itself, Marvel Rivals is a fast-paced, 6v6 team-based shooter set in the ever-evolving Marvel universe. Players can assemble a star-studded lineup of Marvel heroes and villains, crafting countless strategies with their unique Team-Up skills. The game offers dynamic environments and destructible settings, from Asgard to futuristic Tokyo, allowing players to shape battles strategically and creatively. As the universe within Marvel Rivals continues to expand with seasonal updates, players can always look forward to fresh content, heroes, and intense battles.
