A new Marvel Rivals leak has stirred excitement among fans, suggesting that the Fantastic Four—Mister Fantastic, The Thing, Human Torch, and The Invisible Woman—could make their debut in the game during Season 1, rumored to begin on January 10. The leaked image, shared by a well-known leaker, has sparked widespread anticipation, as these iconic Marvel heroes have long been tied to Doctor Doom, a central antagonist in Marvel Rivals’ storyline.
The leak originated from X0X_Leak, a prominent figure in the Marvel Rivals community, who posted an image believed to be official artwork for Season 1. The picture showcases the Fantastic Four hovering above a city in their signature floating car. Data miners had previously uncovered hints about these characters, including voice lines and artwork buried within the game files.
According to the leak:
- The Thing is expected to play as a Vanguard, a tank-like character designed for frontline combat.
- Mister Fantastic and Human Torch are rumored to be Duelists, specializing in agility and damage output.
- The Invisible Woman is said to be a Strategist, supporting teammates with tactical abilities.
Among the leaked details, Human Torch’s abilities have gained significant attention. As a Duelist, his kit reportedly allows him to:
- Create walls of flame that damage enemies while shielding allies.
- Control zones, similar to Groot’s defensive walls.
- Team up with Storm to summon fire tornadoes during battle, introducing a powerful synergy mechanic.
In addition to the Fantastic Four rumors, leaks also suggest that Ultron could arrive as part of Season 1. While absent from the leaked image, Ultron is expected to be a Strategist who deploys drones capable of healing allies and attacking enemies simultaneously.
The possible addition of the Fantastic Four has thrilled Marvel Rivals players. Many believe their arrival aligns naturally with the game’s narrative, as Doctor Doom, the Fantastic Four’s long-standing nemesis, has been a key figure in Season 0.
The rumored abilities of these characters also hint at a new layer of strategy and gameplay variety. Players are particularly intrigued by Human Torch’s ability to manipulate the battlefield and the potential introduction of Ultron’s tactical drone mechanics.
Season 1 of Marvel Rivals is rumored to begin on January 10, with the Fantastic Four’s potential inclusion marking a significant content update. However, as with all leaks, the information remains speculative until officially confirmed by NetEase Games, the developer of Marvel Rivals.
While fans eagerly await confirmation, the leaked Fantastic Four addition and potential Ultron debut have set high expectations for Marvel Rivals’ upcoming Season 1. If true, these characters promise to add depth and excitement to the game, further solidifying its position as one of the most engaging hero shooters on the market.
