Leak Unveils Five New Characters in Marvel Rivals

A recent leak in the gaming community has stirred excitement by unveiling potential new heroes for Marvel Rivals. Fans got a sneak peek at Forge, Amaranth, Hive, Armor, and White Fox, who might soon join the ranks of this ever-popular hero shooter. Just recently, Marvel Rivals kicked off its second season, introducing Emma Frost as a new Vanguard character, taking the lead in battles.

Since the game’s debut, many characters have been leaked, which might seem overwhelming. However, this aligns with NetEase Games’ ambitious plan for the release of new heroes in Marvel Rivals. As they prepared for Season 2: Hellfire Gala, the developers announced their decision to shorten the seasons to two months while still maintaining a pace of two new character releases per season. This commitment means gamers can anticipate a fresh face in the game each month.

Adding more intrigue, prominent leaker X0X_LEAK, through various Twitter updates, shared findings of five new characters hidden within the game’s files. Although it’s unclear exactly when these characters will be introduced, it’s only a matter of time. The expectation is that White Fox will take on the role of a Strategist, whereas Amaranth is likely to be a melee-centric Duelist. Hive and Armor appear to be slated as Vanguards, enriching the game’s array of tanks. Notably, the leaker suggested that the highly-anticipated X-Men’s Forge could enter as a Strategist, providing crucial support while engaging enemies.

In line with these leaks, NetEase seems to be amplifying the presence of Strategists and Vanguards. With just Amaranth set to be a Duelist, there’s potential for shifts in the character roster at any time. Fans have been voicing their wishes for more Strategists and Vanguards, as Duelists currently dominate the scene. Moreover, there are hints that Ultron might soon join as a Strategist during a significant update in the coming months.

April 25 promises an exciting new experience with the introduction of a new game mode, Giant-Size Brain Blast. This quirky feature will give characters an amusing bobble-head appearance. Unlike other limited-time modes, this change is purely visual, with gameplay remaining the same. This new direction, alongside upcoming content, has players buzzing with optimism for Marvel Rivals’ future.
