Fantastic Four

Season 1 of Marvel Rivals welcomes The Fantastic Four, with NetEase introducing select members to the roster. Curious about when The Thing and Human Torch arrive in Marvel Rivals? Here’s the essential information.

Estimated Release Dates for The Thing and Human Torch in Marvel Rivals

The Thing and Human Torch are expected to join Marvel Rivals on February 21 or February 28.

Season 1 launched on January 10, and NetEase has stated that these two characters will debut approximately six to seven weeks later, pointing to a release on either February 21 or 28.

The first half of Season 1 introduced Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman to the lineup. Mister Fantastic shines as a dynamic duelist, while Invisible Woman demands strategic finesse. The Thing and Human Torch are likely to take on vanguard and duelist roles, respectively, upon their arrival.

Season 1 also brings fresh maps, game modes, events, and a new Battle Pass packed with cosmetics for players to earn. Opt for the Luxury Battle Pass track to unlock exclusive skins, though the free track offers plenty of rewards too.

It wouldn’t be surprising if the latter half of Season 1 includes additional maps and game modes tied to the introduction of these two characters.

That covers everything about The Thing and Human Torch’s release in Marvel Rivals for now. Visit The Escapist for more game insights, including details on SVP and Ace meanings, and how the rank reset system functions.
