NetEase Games has confirmed a robust post-launch content plan for Marvel Rivals, promising a new hero every six weeks. Creative Director Guangyun Chen detailed this in an interview with Metro, stating that each three-month season will be divided into two halves, each introducing a new playable character. This commitment to regular content updates also includes new seasonal stories and maps.
"Every season will bring fresh seasonal stories, new maps, and new 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 continuously enhance the experience and keep the community engaged."

This ambitious schedule leaves players eagerly anticipating future hero reveals. Season 1: Eternal Night Falls successfully launched with Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman in the first half, followed by The Thing and the Human Torch in the second. Maintaining this level of high-profile character introductions will be a significant undertaking.
While the initial roster boasts popular characters like Wolverine, Magneto, Spider-Man, Jeff the Landshark, and Storm, the Marvel universe offers countless possibilities. Speculation points towards Blade in Season 2, with fan hopes extending to Daredevil, Deadpool, and other X-Men. NetEase's continued success suggests they are prepared to meet these expectations.
Season 1 also included substantial balance adjustments and gameplay refinements, with more planned for future updates. For further news on Marvel Rivals, explore articles covering the Invisible Woman's use against bots, the Hero Hot List, and the use of mods despite potential bans.
