Marvel Rivals Will Grow Rapidly with a New Hero Being Added Every Month and a Half

Hero shooter smash hit Marvel Rivals already has dozens of playable characters to get to grips with, but the developer is far from finished adding to the roster.

In a recently published interview with Metro, director Guangyun Chen has described the team's aim for post-launch support, and it sounds like new heroes will arrive with impressive regularity.

"Every season we’ll be rolling out fresh seasonal stories, new maps, and new heroes," he said. "We’ll actually be breaking down each season into two halves. The length of one season is three months. And for each half of the season, we will introduce a new hero. We just eventually want to continue to enhance the experience, and, you know, keep everyone excited in our community."

That's right — players should expect a brand new Marvel character to join the game once every month and a half. Two per season, with each season lasting three months.
