Exclusive: Mister Fantastic Unleashes in Marvel Rivals

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic and the Fantastic Four Arrive!

Marvel Rivals’ Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, will introduce Mister Fantastic, kicking off the game's storyline against Dracula. This initial gameplay reveal showcases Mister Fantastic's intellect-driven combat style, using his elastic abilities to creatively subdue opponents.

The entire Fantastic Four will debut in Season 1, though not simultaneously. Following Mister Fantastic's arrival, the Invisible Woman will join the roster. Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to arrive approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to release significant updates midway through each three-month season.

Gameplay footage highlights Mister Fantastic's unique abilities: stretching to punch, grabbing and slamming multiple enemies, and a powerful, Hulk-esque ultimate move involving repeated slams. Speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's launch.

Marvel Rivals' Human Torch and The Thing: Leaked Details

While official details on the remaining Fantastic Four members are scarce, leaked information suggests Human Torch's abilities will focus on fire manipulation, including flame walls and collaborative fire tornadoes with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard-class character, though his abilities remain undisclosed.

Initial speculation pointed to characters like Blade and Ultron as potential Season 1 additions. However, NetEase Games confirmed that only the Fantastic Four will debut in Season 1, pushing characters like Ultron to a later season. The absence of Blade, considering Dracula's presence, has also surprised some players.

Despite some initial surprises, the upcoming influx of content has generated considerable excitement among Marvel Rivals players, anticipating the future of the game.
