Marvels Rivals confirms five new characters joining the launch roster

Marvel Rivals is now set to launch on December 6th with a staggering 33 playable characters, offering a diverse lineup for fans of the Marvel universe. We already knew most of the heroes coming at launch, but the recent trailer showed a few more, including one of Marvel's most iconic superheroes – Wolverine.

The upcoming hero shooter from NetEase has been generating quite some buzz. Scheduled to release later this week, the full roster of heroes has finally been revealed. A new cinematic launch trailer showcases the impressive lineup, including fan favourites like Captain America, Hawkeye, Moon Knight, and the Winter Soldier, alongside some surprising additions.

Black Widow, Iron Fist, Wolverine, Squirrel Girl, and the unique duo Cloak and Dagger are the latest characters to join the roster, and considering the game's launch is right around the corner, we don't expect any more to be announced before that. The rest of the rost can be found below:

• Adam Warlock
• Black Panther
• Captain America
• Doctor Strange

Marvel Rivals will launch with nine maps, including iconic locations like Wakanda and Asgard. Eight of these maps are designed for traditional game modes, while one is specifically crafted for the Conquest mode.

This amount of content at launch surpasses what was available in the recent beta, and NetEase has promised even more free updates in the future. New heroes and maps will be added regularly, ensuring the game remains fresh for players.
