Marvel Rivals came rushing out of the traps to colossal success with over 10 million players in its first three days, and it already has a stacked roster of characters. However, fans are already eagerly awaiting who will be added to the roster next, and there’s already been plenty of leaks.
As always with leaks, it’s essential to keep in mind they are just leaks so may not actually happen, but right now this is all we have to go on and leaks have been accurate in the past. We’ve also chucked in some predictions for good measure, taking into account the characters who are currently missing and what’s coming up elsewhere with Marvel or potential tie-ins.
Every leaked character in Marvel Rivals
Even before the game fully released, after the beta finished, there were plenty of characters leaked for full release and they actually came to pass. The leaks included characters like Wolverine and Squirrel Girl, who are both now in the game. The leakers get the majority of the information from diving into the games files and so far these are the characters suggested to be arriving in the future:
- Blade
- Captain Marvel
- Human Torch
- Hit Monkey
- Invisible Woman
- The Thing
- Mr Fantastic
- Ultron
- Jean Grey
- Emma Frost
Considering the main villains of the games narrative right now are two opposing Doctor Doom’s it’s quite miraculous the Fantastic Four aren’t in the game in some capactiy already, but the good news is they’re leaked. Yet, there’s no indication of when Marvel’s First Family of when they will arrive so the release may coincide with the film releasing in July, 2025.
Marvel Rivals character predictions
Predicting who will be included in this game is actually something of a struggle due to NetEase Games opting for some more niche characters at launch, like Jeff the Land Shark and Luna Snow, who are welcome inclusions. Looking ahead at coming films, comics, and who is already mentioned in the game, the list below keeps all of that in mind when predicting who may arrive in the future:
Prediction | Reasoning |
---|---|
Knull | Heavily referenced in the game and linked to the Celestial Codex |
Doctor Doom | The main villain of Marvel Rivals currently, so surely its only a matter of time |
Falcon | Is the star of the upcoming Captain America film so would be a great time to release him |
Deadpool | A character who is so popular, he will no doubt be coming to the game eventually. Wolverine also has a spray of half a heart which Deadpool could then complete as seen in the recent film |
Iron Heart | Another character who’s getting an MCU project in the near future and would work as Strategist who there is currently a lack of |
