NetEase will add Deadpool to Marvel Rivals when Season 6 Night at the Museum launches on January 16, 2026. Dev Vision Vol. 13 walked through the Merc with a Mouth and showed that Deadpool can be played as three distinct roles in the same kit. The developers demonstrated the character in a recorded Dev Vision segment. We have previously reported Deadpool arriving in January.
Dual Pistols and Dual Katanas weapons let him handle fights at range and up close and fill the Duelist role. His Vanguard tools include a unicorn plushie that dispenses shields. As a Strategist Deadpool can heal allies by shooting them while using the same weapons.
The character can level up during a match until he reaches what the devs call a “true server admin” state. Deadpool’s ultimate charges faster based on how the player fights. The team also said answering the character’s in-match questions influences role buffs.
Role
- Duelist Dual Pistols and Dual Katanas for ranged and melee combat.
- Vanguard Unicorn plushie provides shields to teammates.
- Strategist Weapons can heal allies when shot at them.
