Marvel Rivals: Thing & Human Torch Release Date Revealed

With the launch of Season 1 in *Marvel Rivals*, NetEase has thrilled fans by introducing members of The Fantastic Four to the game, but not the entire team just yet. If you're eagerly awaiting the arrival of The Thing and Human Torch, here’s what you should know.

Marvel Rivals The Thing and Human Torch Estimated Release Date

It's highly anticipated that The Thing and Human Torch will make their debut in *Marvel Rivals* on either February 21st or February 28th. Season 1 kicked off on January 10th, and given NetEase's confirmation that these two characters will be released approximately six to seven weeks after the start of the season, we can expect their addition on one of these dates.

The initial phase of Season 1 brought Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman into the roster. Mister Fantastic offers a dynamic duelist experience, whereas Invisible Woman plays the role of a strategist, demanding more nuanced gameplay. It's speculated that The Thing will likely serve as a vanguard, while Human Torch might take on the role of a duelist when they join the game.

In addition to new characters, Season 1 introduced fresh maps, game modes, events, and a new Battle Pass loaded with a variety of new cosmetics for players to unlock. You can opt for the Luxury track of the Battle Pass to access exclusive skins, while the free track also offers a substantial amount of unlockables.

Given the excitement around The Thing and Human Torch, it wouldn't be surprising if the second half of Season 1 introduces additional maps and game modes tailored to these new characters.

That's all the latest information on when The Thing and Human Torch are set to be released in *Marvel Rivals*. For more tips and detailed guides on the game, including explanations of SVP and Ace, as well as insights into the rank reset system, be sure to check out The Escapist.
