Marvel Rivals has laid out just how many heroes the game will be getting and at what pace they will arrive going forward.

The next Marvel Rivals update is the mid-season update for season one, which introduces Human Torch and The Thing as playable characters. The update will also provide balance tweaks, new maps, and additional content, though full details have yet to be confirmed.

The Marvel Rivals tier list is proof of an inherent truth: not every hero (or villain) is built equally. In the competitive shooter’s season 1 (which added two characters, two maps, a battle pass, and skins ), every character is technically viable, but there are some who are obviously more powerful than the rest.

Game director Guangyun Chen says "we just eventually want to continue to enhance the experience, and, you know, keep everyone excited in our community"

Marvel Rivals is set to release new characters at a rapid rate, but this could cause some serious long-term issues.

NetEase has confirmed Marvel Rivals will receive a new hero every month and a half, but won't be adding enforced roles.

Marvel Rivals landed with a wide roster, boasting 33 heroes when it launched on December 5. Just over a month later, the hero shooter's received two additions to its lineup, thanks to the arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman with the advent of Season 1.

Here are the heroes with the highest and lowest win rates in Marvel Rivals season 1. Choose accordingly (or just have fun).

NetEase Games is telling Marvel Rivals players that a new hero will launch every month and a half as additional seasons roll out. The studio’s creative director, Guangyun Chen, clarified the team’s post-launch plans during an interview with Metro.
