Wolverine was one of the last additions to the rosterThe joy of Marvel Rivals is that developer NetEase has so much to pull from in terms of characters and history that it could feasibly go on forever.
And, while we’ve already seen a bunch of leaks hinting at Fantastic Four, Ultron, Blade and more, now a fresh leak has revealed additional characters are being lined up for the game that’s already pulled attracted 20 million players. Dataminer X0XLEAK on X (formerly Twitter) has revealed a lot of fresh new content we can expect.
Characters, maps, and even team-up moves have been revealed, so if you’re sensitive to spoilers, this is your last chance to look away.
More Marvel Rivals characters have leakedReady for some new faces to join the fray?According to X0XLEAK on X, among the game’s files are Deadpool, Valkyrie, and MODOK.
Those join an eclectic mix that already include Hit-Monkey, Jean Grey, the Fantastic Four, and more, and while there’s no guarantee they’ll be added as part of the Season 1 update expected in January, it’s interesting that so many characters are being worked on already.
It’s not just characters, either. One of the fun things about Marvel Rivals is how characters can unleash team-up abilities, and X0XLEAK’s reporting suggests there are fresh ones like Storm and Human Torch, Wolverine and Phoenix, and Emma Frost and Magneto. There are some for existing characters, too, with Squirrel Girl and Rocket Raccoon mentioned.
Finally, there are more maps, too. Krakoa, Arakko, and New York are all reportedly being lined up for players.
With big new movies like Captain America: New World Order on the horizon, there’s every chance we’ll get characters launched in time for release. Given Red Hulk and Sam Wilson as Falcon/Captain America aren’t on the list yet, NetEase could be stacking a whole army of heroes and villains – it’ll be like the final battle of Avengers Endgame all over again.
