NetEase Games promises a steady stream of new heroes for its Marvel Rivals game, with a new character launching every six weeks. This commitment was confirmed by creative director Guangyun Chen in an interview with Metro. The plan involves releasing a new hero for each half of a three-month season.
"Each season will feature new storylines, maps, and heroes. We're dividing each season into two halves," Chen explained. "A season lasts three months, and each half will introduce a new hero. Our goal is to continually enhance the experience and keep the community engaged."

This ambitious rollout leaves players eagerly anticipating each new character. Season 1: Eternal Night Falls began with Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman in the first half, followed by The Thing and the Human Torch in the second. While these iconic characters provide a strong foundation, maintaining this level of excitement and delivering consistently popular additions remains a significant challenge.
Marvel Rivals already boasts a diverse roster including Wolverine, Magneto, Spider-Man, Jeff the Landshark, and Storm. However, numerous other Marvel characters are highly anticipated. Rumors suggest Blade for Season 2, with fans also hoping for Daredevil, Deadpool, and more X-Men. NetEase's future roster expansion remains uncertain, but the game's current success indicates a strong commitment to ongoing development.
Season 1 also included numerous balance adjustments and gameplay refinements, with more planned for future updates.
