According to reliable sources like XOXLEAK, players can expect to see some fan-favorite X-Men appearing soon. With season 1 already breaking records, it’s no wonder that dataminers have been busy uncovering what’s next for this superhero showdown.
- Cyclops – The iconic leader of the X-Men will surely bring his laser vision as a Duelist.
- Professor X – There’s chatter about whether he’ll be in his chair or hovering around. Either way, he’ll serve as a Strategist.
- Colossus – This metal giant is destined to take on the role of Vanguard/Tank.
- Jia Jing – A lesser-known mutant with insect-like powers joins as another Strategist; her addition seems aimed at appealing to the game’s growing player base in China.
- Locus – With teleportation abilities reminiscent of Nightcrawler but with her own twist, she could add interesting mechanics as another Strategist.
- Trapster/Paste-Pot Pete – A quirky choice indeed! Known more for his gadgets than superpowers, he may remind players of Overwatch’s Mei as a Duelist.
The inclusion of these characters is bound to spark conversations among fans. While Cyclops and Professor X feel like natural fits, Locus and Trapster raise eyebrows, who knew there was such demand for Paste-Pot Pete? It seems developers are digging deep into Marvel lore!
This isn’t all; previous leaks also hinted at characters like Angela, Hit-Monkey, Deadpool, Captain Marvel, Emma Frost, Phoenix/Jean Grey, Valkyrie, MODOK, Ultron, and even Blade coming down the line. If all these heroes make it into Marvel Rivals, we’re looking at quite an extensive roster over future seasons!
I’m curious about how players will react once these characters roll out. Will you welcome them with open arms or wish they’d picked someone else? Share your thoughts below! Every hero needs support, so why not team up with friends when exploring what Marvel Rivals has in store?
