Fantastic Intel Unveiled: Marvel Rivals Spotlights Mister Fantastic's Abilities

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Mister Fantastic and the Fantastic Four Arrive!

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 at Mister Fantastic's gameplay. He'll be using his incredible intellect and stretchy powers to battle Dracula as the game's narrative unfolds.

The entire Fantastic Four will debut in Season 1, though not all at once. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at launch. Human Torch and The Thing are anticipated to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to release significant updates mid-way through each three-month season.

Gameplay footage showcases Mister Fantastic's unique abilities. He stretches his limbs to deliver powerful punches, grabs multiple opponents for devastating slams, and inflates his body for enhanced strength, reminiscent of the Hulk. His ultimate ability involves repeated powerful slams onto the enemy team, similar to The Winter Soldier's attacks. Speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus tied to the Fantastic Four's arrival.

Leaked Information on Other Fantastic Four Members

While details on the other Fantastic Four members remain scarce, leaked information suggests Human Torch will control the battlefield with fiery walls and team up with Storm to unleash devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, but his abilities remain undisclosed.

Future Prospects and Speculation

Rumors of Blade and Ultron joining the game have circulated, but NetEase Games confirms the Fantastic Four will be the only new characters in Season 1. This contradicts earlier speculation that Ultron would be a launch character, pushing his arrival to Season 2 or beyond. The absence of Blade, a natural adversary to Dracula, has also surprised some players. Despite these surprises, the upcoming content has generated significant excitement among Marvel Rivals fans.
