NetEase Games has confirmed the Fantastic Four in Marvel Rivals, its popular action-strategy game. The news was announced on the developer's social media, accompanied by an image introducing the group's members.
The developer will release the official trailer with more details on January 6th at 1 PM (Brasília time). Players have high expectations and are eager to see how the game will adapt each hero's iconic abilities.
What to Expect from Fantastic Four in Marvel Rivals
Recent leaks already hinted at the inclusion of characters like the Human Torch and the Thing, with detailed descriptions of their abilities. Now, with the full team confirmed—including Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, and even the robot HERBIE—the community is speculating about these characters' impact on the Marvel Rivals dynamic.
HERBIE, in particular, has sparked debate about his role in the game. While some believe he'll play as a strategic support character, others believe he'll be playable, which would mark a difference in the already diverse roster.
However, they haven't yet released information about the heroes' release. The possibility of them being made available gradually or in a single update keeps players guessing.
Cast expansion and rumors
Besides the Fantastic Four, rumors point to the arrival of other big names in the game. Leaks have mentioned Deadpool, Emma Frost, and Ultron, but there's no official confirmation yet. If confirmed, these additions could further boost Marvel Rivals' popularity.
With over 20 million active players, NetEase's title has distinguished itself by blending action and strategy into an engaging experience. Released for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X, the game has continually expanded its roster, relying on regular updates to maintain fan interest.
