With the exciting launch of Season 1 in *Marvel Rivals*, NetEase has thrilled fans by introducing members of The Fantastic Four into the game, but not all at once. If you're eager to know when The Thing and Human Torch will join the action, here's what you should be aware of.
Marvel Rivals The Thing and Human Torch Estimated Release Date
It's highly anticipated that The Thing and Human Torch will become playable characters in *Marvel Rivals* on either Feb. 21 or Feb. 28.
Season 1 kicked off on Jan. 10, and since NetEase has announced that these two characters will be released approximately six to seven weeks after the season's start, we can pinpoint their addition to the game on either the 21st or the 28th.
The first segment of Season 1 brought Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman into the roster, enhancing the gameplay experience. Mister Fantastic serves as an engaging duelist character, whereas Invisible Woman demands strategic finesse. It's expected that The Thing will take on the vanguard role, and Human Torch will likely fulfill a duelist position, adding even more diversity to the game's dynamics.
Alongside the new characters, Season 1 has introduced fresh maps, game modes, and events, as well as a new Battle Pass brimming with new cosmetics for players to earn. The Luxury track of the Battle Pass offers a variety of skins, while the free track also includes numerous unlockables, ensuring everyone can enjoy the new content.
Given the additions so far, it wouldn't be surprising if the second half of Season 1 brings more maps and game modes specifically tailored to The Thing and Human Torch, further enhancing the *Marvel Rivals* experience.
