Marvel Rivals is sweeping the nation. The popular multiplayer game has surpassed 40 million players this week and shows no signs of stopping. NetEase has made it clear that new heroes, maps, and content will be released often, keeping the game fresh. A brand new patch was released along with The Thing and the Human Torch to refresh season 1. Fans are already speculating on what the future of the game brings. According to a recent leak, a popular X-men group may be at the center of season 2.
Marvel Rivals Leaks Hints At Season 2 Theme
Season 0, entitled “Doom’s Rise,” lasted only a short time. The current season, “Eternal Night Falls,” centers around defeating Dracula. The characters added to the game often fit the season’s theme. We got our first look at Blade in the latest trailer showing off the Central Park map. One of the things players want to know all the time is what new characters are coming down the pipeline. A recent Marvel Rivals leak may give an idea of who is coming next.
Redditor MarbledJelly showed off an image of the Hellfire Club banner found in the game files. There is no denying the image. Furthermore, the leaker notes that a Hellfire Gala will be held with Doctor Doom 2099 in attendance. This has led many to believe that Emma Frost will be heading to the game soon. While the group has had many different iterations, the diamond-skinned mutant has been a staple of the bunch for years. The studio has confirmed nothing, and all of this should be taken with a grain of salt.
Huge Impact
Marvel Rivals is starting to have a huge impact on the video game news cycle. No one cares about leaks for most games. However, games like Fortnite and Call of Duty have such a huge impact on the gaming community that people spend hours pouring over the game files to try and find hints about what is coming next. This game has reached that status. There will be no shortage of leaks coming out every day in order to try and figure out what heroes and maps are coming.
It is important to remember that while trying to predict what will happen is fun, it shouldn’t diminish the enjoyment of the game. Plenty of awesome heroes are already available to play, and NetEase has been clear that they will keep consistently updating the game. We are already halfway through season 1 in Marvel Rivals. What can we expect from future seasons? While leaks may give us some insight, we will have to wait until an official announcement comes.
