Marvel Rivals Reveals Mister Fantastic Gameplay

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

Marvel Rivals is gearing up for its Season 1 launch, "Eternal Night Falls," on January 10th at 1 AM PST, bringing with it the highly anticipated debut of Mister Fantastic. This first look at gameplay showcases Reed Richards utilizing his incredible intellect and elasticity in a thrilling showdown against Dracula.

The arrival of Mister Fantastic marks the beginning of the Fantastic Four's introduction to the game. While Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at launch, Human Torch and The Thing are slated to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later.

NetEase Games, the developer, has confirmed a three-month season structure with significant updates planned for the mid-point of each season. Mister Fantastic's gameplay footage reveals a diverse skillset: stretching attacks, a powerful body inflation technique, and a devastating ultimate ability reminiscent of The Winter Soldier's ground-pound attack. Speculation abounds regarding a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's arrival.

Gameplay Details and Leaks:

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 unleash devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, though his abilities remain undisclosed.

Future Prospects:

Initial speculation pointed towards Blade and Ultron as potential Season 1 characters. However, NetEase Games has clarified that the Fantastic Four will be the sole additions for Season 1, suggesting a potential delay for Blade and Ultron to Season 2 or beyond. This has surprised some players, especially considering Dracula's presence and Blade's history as his nemesis. Despite this, the upcoming content has generated significant excitement within the Marvel Rivals community.
