Winter is coming, and with it, the highly anticipated full reunion of the Fantastic Four in Marvel Rivals! Next Friday's major update brings The Thing and The Human Torch to the roster.
A ranked checkpoint arrives in just 10 days, rewarding players for their competitive efforts. Gold rank and above unlocks exclusive skins, while Grandmaster rank and beyond earns a prestigious Crest of Honor.
However, a partial rank reset is planned, demoting players by four divisions. This change has sparked controversy, with many players expressing frustration at losing hard-earned progress mid-season. The concern is that this could deter less dedicated players from engaging in ranked matches.
Developers have acknowledged the feedback and indicated a willingness to adapt. If the community response is strongly negative, adjustments to the rank reset system are possible.
