Marvel Rivals: When Are The Thing and Human Torch Arriving?
NetEase's Marvel Rivals Season 1 finally introduced the Fantastic Four, but with a twist. Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman debuted initially, leaving fans wondering about the arrival of The Thing and Human Torch. Here's the anticipated release window.
Estimated Release Date for The Thing and Human Torch
A release date of February 21st or 28th is highly probable. Season 1 commenced on January 10th, and NetEase indicated a six to seven-week rollout for these characters following the season's start. This timeframe points to a late February addition.
Season 1 Content So Far
The first half of Season 1 delivered Mister Fantastic (a versatile duelist) and Invisible Woman (a strategic character requiring skill). The Thing and Human Torch are expected to fill vanguard and duelist roles, respectively, once added. Beyond the new characters, Season 1 also brought new maps, game modes, events, and a Battle Pass with cosmetic rewards on both free and premium tracks.
What to Expect in the Second Half of Season 1
Given the additions to date, it's reasonable to anticipate further map and game mode expansions in the second half of Season 1, potentially themed around The Thing and Human Torch.
