With the launch of Season 1 in *Marvel Rivals*, NetEase has excited fans by introducing members of The Fantastic Four into the game, although not the entire team just yet. If you're eager to know when you can play as The Thing and Human Torch, here's the latest scoop.

Marvel Rivals The Thing and Human Torch Estimated Release Date

You can mark your calendars for either Feb. 21 or Feb. 28, as these dates are the most probable for The Thing and Human Torch to join the *Marvel Rivals* roster. Season 1 kicked off on Jan. 10, and NetEase has confirmed that these iconic characters will be introduced approximately six to seven weeks after the season's start.

The initial phase of Season 1 brought Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman into the mix. Mister Fantastic offers a thrilling duelist experience, while Invisible Woman demands strategic gameplay, showcasing the diversity of playstyles within the game. When The Thing and Human Torch arrive, they are expected to take on the roles of vanguard and duelist, respectively, adding even more variety to your gameplay options.

Season 1 has also enriched the game with new maps, game modes, events, and a fresh Battle Pass loaded with cosmetics for players to unlock. Whether you opt for the Luxury track of the Battle Pass for exclusive skins or stick to the free track for other rewards, there's plenty to grind for.

Looking ahead, it wouldn't be surprising if the latter part of Season 1 introduces additional maps and game modes tailored to The Thing and Human Torch, enhancing the overall *Marvel Rivals* experience.
