Marvel Unveils New Human Torch, Thing & Map Trailers

This week is massive for hero shooters! Overwatch 2 just dropped Season 15, Marvel Rivals is on the cusp of its Season 1 second half (launching in just two days!), and even Team Fortress 2 received a Source SDK code update. But let's focus on the newest contender: Marvel Rivals.

Developers have unveiled gameplay footage showcasing the Fantastic Four's final two members: the Human Torch and the Thing, arriving this Friday, February 21st.

The Human Torch (Johnny Storm), a Duelist class character, boasts impressive abilities: unrestricted flight, fiery projectiles, a scorching barrier to encircle opponents, and devastating fire tornadoes.

The Thing (Benjamin J. Grimm), a Defender class character, offers unique support and disruptive capabilities: short-range teammate throws and a powerful ground slam that launches enemies skyward.

A brief teaser at the end of the gameplay video also revealed a new map: Central Park.

Get ready! This major update hits this Friday.
