Mister Fantastic Gameplay Revealed in Marvel Rivals

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. The elastic hero will utilize his intellect to combat Dracula in the game's unfolding narrative.

The full Fantastic Four will debut throughout Season 1, though not simultaneously. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman will be available at launch, with Human Torch and The Thing anticipated to join the roster approximately six to seven weeks later. NetEase Games has confirmed that each three-month season will feature a significant mid-season update.

Gameplay footage showcases Mister Fantastic's versatile abilities. He stretches to deliver powerful punches, grabs and slams multiple opponents, and inflates his body for enhanced strength. His ultimate ability involves a repeated, powerful slam attack reminiscent of The Winter Soldier. While speculation exists regarding a potential Season 1 bonus for the Fantastic Four, this remains unconfirmed.

Leaked information hints at the abilities of other Fantastic Four members. Human Torch's kit reportedly includes flame walls for battlefield control and the potential to collaborate with Storm to create devastating fire tornadoes. The Thing is rumored to be a Vanguard class character, although details about his abilities are scarce.

Initial rumors suggested the inclusion of characters like Blade and Ultron. However, NetEase Games has clarified that the Fantastic Four will be the only new characters in Season 1, pushing characters like Ultron and Blade to potential future seasons. This has surprised some players, especially given Dracula's prominent role and Blade's history as his nemesis. Despite this, anticipation for Season 1 and the future of Marvel Rivals remains high among players.
