Marvel Rivals Dev Commits to Bi-Monthly Hero Releases

Authore: SadieUpdate:Apr 07,2025

NetEase Games has exciting news for Marvel Rivals enthusiasts: a new hero will be introduced every month and a half as part of the game's ongoing seasons. This announcement was made by the studio's creative director, Guangyun Chen, during an interview with Metro. Chen emphasized the team's commitment to enriching the game experience, stating, "Every season we’ll be rolling out fresh seasonal stories, new maps, and new heroes. We’ll actually be breaking down each season into two halves. The length of one season is three months. And for each half of the season, we will introduce a new hero. We just eventually want to continue to enhance the experience, and, you know, keep everyone excited in our community."

This ambitious plan raises anticipation among fans, who are eager to discover which heroes will join the roster next. Marvel Rivals Season 1: Eternal Night Falls set a high bar by introducing Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman in the first half, followed by The Thing and the Human Torch in the second half. These iconic characters have solidified their place in the game, but maintaining this momentum will be a significant challenge for NetEase.

The game launched with an impressive lineup of heroes, including Wolverine, Magneto, Spider-Man, Jeff the Landshark, and Storm. Speculation is rife about future additions, with characters like Blade rumored for Season 2, and fans expressing hope for the inclusion of Daredevil, Deadpool, and other X-Men members. Given the game's success so far, NetEase shows no signs of slowing down in expanding the Marvel Rivals roster.

In addition to new heroes, Marvel Rivals Season 1 brought a series of balance changes and gameplay tweaks, with more updates promised for the future. For those interested in staying updated, you can explore how some players are using the Invisible Woman to combat an alleged bot problem, delve into the Hero Hot List, and learn about the use of mods despite the risk of bans.
