When Do The Thing & Human Torch Release in Marvel Rivals?

Marvel Rivals: When Are The Thing and Human Torch Arriving?

NetEase's Marvel Rivals Season 1 finally introduced the Fantastic Four, but with a twist. Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman debuted initially, leaving fans wondering about the arrival of The Thing and Human Torch. Here's the anticipated release window.

Estimated Release Date for The Thing and Human Torch

A release date of February 21st or 28th is highly probable. Season 1 commenced on January 10th, and NetEase indicated a six to seven-week launch window for these characters after the season's start. This timeframe points towards a late February addition.

Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, released in the first half of Season 1, offer distinct gameplay styles: Mister Fantastic as a skilled duelist and Invisible Woman as a strategic character. The Thing and Human Torch are expected to fill vanguard and duelist roles respectively, upon their introduction.

Season 1 also brought fresh maps, game modes, events, and a new Battle Pass brimming with cosmetic rewards. While a Luxury Battle Pass track offers premium skins, the free track also provides substantial unlockable content.

The second half of Season 1 is anticipated to include further maps and game modes, potentially themed around The Thing and Human Torch.
