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 elastic hero will use his intellect and unique abilities to combat Dracula in the game's unfolding narrative.
The Fantastic Four's Arrival
The developers have confirmed the Fantastic Four's debut in Season 1, though not all members will arrive simultaneously. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will join the roster at the season's start, with Human Torch and The Thing expected to follow within six to seven weeks.
Gameplay and Abilities
A recent trailer showcases Mister Fantastic's combat prowess. He utilizes his elastic powers for powerful punches, grabbing and slamming opponents, and even inflating his body for devastating blows. His ultimate ability involves a repeated slamming attack reminiscent of The Winter Soldier's style. Speculation surrounds a potential Seasonal Bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's launch.
Leaked Information on Other Fantastic Four Members
While details on the remaining Fantastic Four members are scarce, leaked information suggests Human Torch will control the battlefield with flame walls and collaborate with Storm to create fiery tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but his abilities remain undisclosed.
Future Characters and Season Updates
Rumors of Blade and Ultron's inclusion have circulated, but NetEase Games clarified that the Fantastic Four will be the sole additions in Season 1. This contradicts earlier leaks suggesting Ultron's initial presence, pushing his arrival to Season 2 or later. The absence of Blade, considering Dracula's presence, has also surprised some players. NetEase Games plans to release major updates midway through each three-month season.
With a steady stream of new content, Marvel Rivals is generating considerable excitement among players anticipating the game's future.
