Marvel Rivals Reveals Mister Fantastic Gameplay

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. His intellect-based combat style is showcased in newly released gameplay footage.

The entire Fantastic Four will debut in Season 1, though not simultaneously. The Invisible Woman joins Mister Fantastic at the season's launch, while Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to arrive approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans substantial mid-season updates for each three-month season.

Mister Fantastic's gameplay features elastic-powered punches, the ability to grab and slam multiple opponents, and a powerful ultimate move involving repeated slams, reminiscent of The Winter Soldier. Speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's arrival.

Leaked information suggests Human Torch's abilities will include flame walls for battlefield control and the potential to create devastating fire tornadoes with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but details about his abilities remain undisclosed.

While rumors circulated about Blade and Ultron's inclusion, NetEase Games confirmed the Fantastic Four as Season 1's sole new characters. This suggests a potential delay for Ultron to Season 2 or later, surprising some players who anticipated his inclusion in the initial roster. The absence of Blade, a notable Dracula adversary, is another unexpected development. Despite these surprises, anticipation for Marvel Rivals' future remains high.
