The Marvel Universe as we know it started in 1961 with the debut of the Fantastic Four, so it's only fitting that the first post-launch heroes for Marvel Rivals are coming from the first family of superheroes. NetEase Games has dropped a teaser image for the Fantastic Four with an announcement that a new trailer is coming on Monday, January 6.

Marvel Rivals dominated the Steam and Twitch charts last week. The new 6v6 arena shooter from NetEase has quickly established itself and is challenging its competitor Overwatch. Although the game has only recently been released,

Marvel Rivals has laid out just how many heroes the game will be getting and at what pace they will arrive going forward.

Marvel Rivals landed with a wide roster, boasting 33 heroes when it launched on December 5. Just over a month later, the hero shooter's received two additions to its lineup, thanks to the arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman with the advent of Season 1.

NetEase Games is telling Marvel Rivals players that a new hero will launch every month and a half as additional seasons roll out. The studio’s creative director, Guangyun Chen, clarified the team’s post-launch plans during an interview with Metro.

NetEase has confirmed Marvel Rivals will receive a new hero every month and a half, but won't be adding enforced roles. Speaking to Metro, game director Guangyun Chen was asked about the cadence of heroes joining the game.

NetEase Games will release a new playable hero every six weeks in Marvel Rivals. Also, a new season will be split into two parts every three months, with a new hero being released every half of a season.
