The Fantastic Four are arriving throughout Season One of Marvel Rivals. The first members of the group will debut on Jan. 10 and the other two will follow them around halfway through the season.

The Marvel Rivals team previously told Dot Esports that all seasons will last for three months and be split into two halves with new content arriving in each half, so two members of the team will be available to play right away while the others will join later on.

When is Mister Fantastic coming to Marvel Rivals?

Mister Fantastic is officially arriving on Jan. 10 with the launch of Season One. He’ll be available to play as soon as Season One begins. He’s been officially confirmed as a Duelist with plenty of deadly abilities fueled by the Elasticity he builds over time.

When is Invisible Woman coming to Marvel Rivals?

Invisible Woman is arriving alongside Mister Fantastic on Jan. 10 with the start of Season One. She’s a powerful Strategist with a mix of invisibility, force fields, and healing which means she’s a powerful support pick for any team lineup.

When is The Thing coming to Marvel Rivals?

An official release date for The Thing hasn’t been shared yet, but he is confirmed to be launching around six or seven weeks after the start of Season One. This information was revealed in the patch notes.

When is Human Torch coming to Marvel Rivals?

Human Torch will be released mid-season about six or seven weeks after Season One begins on Jan. 10. We don’t know the exact launch date yet, but we do have a general timeframe as to when we can expect to see him join the roster of playable units.

What roles do the Fantastic Four have in Marvel Rivals?

The Fantastic Four feature a variety of different roles in Marvel Rivals:

  • Mister Fantastic is confirmed to be a Duelist.
  • Invisible Woman is confirmed to be a Strategist.
  • The Thing is speculated to be a Vanguard.
  • Human Torch is believed to be a Duelist.

Although the roles for The Thing and Human Torch aren’t official and confirmed just yet, they do line up with their powers, which makes them pretty likely to be correct. The leakers sharing this information have very solid track records and have accurately leaked other game details like the Lunar New Year skins and the Winter Celebration event, so they’re fairly trustworthy sources for this information.
