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, introducing Mister Fantastic in a showdown against Dracula. This initial gameplay reveal showcases Mister Fantastic's intellect-driven combat style, utilizing his elastic abilities in creative ways to subdue opponents.
The full Fantastic Four will debut throughout Season 1, but not simultaneously. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at launch, with Human Torch and The Thing expected to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games plans to release significant updates midway through each three-month season.

Gameplay footage reveals Mister Fantastic's diverse abilities: stretching attacks, grabbing and slamming enemies, and a powerful ultimate move reminiscent of The Winter Soldier. While speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus for the Fantastic Four, this remains unconfirmed.
Leaked information suggests Human Torch's abilities will involve flame walls for battlefield control and the potential for devastating fire tornadoes in conjunction with Storm. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, although his abilities are currently unknown.
Despite previous rumors of Blade and Ultron's inclusion, NetEase Games has confirmed that the Fantastic Four are the only characters debuting in Season 1. This suggests a potential delay for Ultron to Season 2 or later, surprising some players given Dracula's presence. The absence of Blade, a notable Dracula adversary, is also noteworthy. The upcoming wave of content has generated considerable excitement among Marvel Rivals players.
