Marvel Rivals Reveals Mister Fantastic Gameplay

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic Leads the Charge Against Dracula

Marvel Rivals is gearing up for its Season 1 launch, "Eternal Night Falls," on January 10th at 1 AM PST, and NetEase Games has unveiled a sneak peek of Mister Fantastic in action. The highly anticipated hero will utilize his intellect to combat Dracula in the game's unfolding storyline.

The Fantastic Four's arrival is confirmed for Season 1, although not all members will debut simultaneously. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at the season's launch, with Human Torch and The Thing expected to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to deliver significant updates mid-way through each three-month season.

Gameplay footage showcases Mister Fantastic's unique abilities. Reed Richards uses his elastic powers to punch opponents, grapple multiple enemies, and unleash a powerful, Hulk-like, muscle-enhanced assault. His ultimate ability involves repeated aerial slams onto the enemy team, reminiscent of The Winter Soldier's attacks. While speculation exists about a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four, this remains unconfirmed.

Leaked Information Hints at Future Fantastic Four Abilities

While official details on the remaining Fantastic Four members are scarce, leaked information suggests Human Torch's abilities will center around flame-based area control and devastating fire tornadoes in conjunction with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard-class character, but his abilities remain undisclosed.

Initial rumors suggested the inclusion of Blade and Ultron, but NetEase Games has clarified that the Fantastic Four will be the sole new characters in Season 1. This confirms the delay of Ultron to Season 2 or later, dispelling earlier speculation of his inclusion in the initial roster. The absence of Blade, considering Dracula's presence, has also surprised some players.

Despite some initial surprises and unconfirmed details, the upcoming content has generated considerable excitement among Marvel Rivals players, promising a thrilling and eventful Season 1.
