Marvel Rivals is a battleground for all of Marvel’s greatest hits, heroes and villains alike, with no shortage of characters to choose from—but that list will grow even longer with more releases planned, many of which have already been leaked.
Marvel Rivals launched with a stacked roster of 33 heroes and villains, spanning familiar names like Iron Man and Wolverine to lesser-known characters like Luna Snow and Squirrel Girl, and over 80 years of comic history means this is merely a drop in the ocean.
Of course, bringing every single character from Marvel into the game isn’t possible, but fresh sets of leaks in each update suggest there are plans for plenty of new faces—and you can see every leak below.

New characters are set to be released every season in Marvel Rivals, with season one the first time that additions came to the roster. It remains to be seen how new heroes will be incorporated into the ongoing lore and whether each season will have a theme around a specific multiverse or set of characters.
One of the first sets of leaks included the Fantastic Four, who arrived in season one of Marvel Rivals, confirming the first set of mined information that came with the game. But it’s just been a heavy deluge of rumored characters found mentioned within the files ever since.
The roster of X-Men characters also looks set to increase with Emma Frost and Jean Grey/Phoenix on the cards, plus mainstays like Cyclops, Beast, Nightcrawler, Jubilee, and even Professor X. More unfamiliar names to those not as versed in Marvel Comics include Hit-Monkey, a Japanese macaque wielding pistols, and Angela, a character who first appeared in the Spawn comics but was later introduced as a lost siter of Thor.

Elsewhere, Ultron will increase the roster of playable villains in Marvel Rivals, while Captain Marvel and Blade should arrive eventually, with the latter looking to be coming in season two at the earliest. Beyond that, not much else is known about potential arrival times of any heroes, and even less is known about some others.
