Marvel Rivals players have quickly picked up on a subtle but telling change in the latest patch that hints Blade might be joining the roster soon. While the June 19 update mostly focused on balancing tweaks, an environmental detail caught the attention of eagle-eyed fans.
In the Imperial Institute of Science spawn room, the bed where Blade used to be seen sleeping is now empty. This small but significant change was shared on Reddit, sparking speculation that Blade is eager to become playable.
Anyone know where Blade went?

Blade played a key role in Season One’s story, Eternal Night Falls, where Dracula captured him in Central Park and later rescued. At the start of Season Two, he was seen resting in Birnin T’Challa but now appears ready to jump into the fray.
Dataminers uncovered assets for Blade last year, but no one knew precisely when he’d show up. Many expected him this season after his rescue, but instead, the Hellfire Gala brought Emma Frost and Ultron into the mix.
With a long list of datamined characters waiting in the wings, Blade’s arrival might not be immediate, but NetEase seems to be setting the stage carefully. Fans have been waiting, and this empty bed is a clear sign.
