With a game as big asMarvel Rivals, leaks are bound to happen, and yet another new character may have just been leaked by a piece of merchandise. Over a dozencharacters have been rumored and leaked forMarvel Rivals, but most of those leaks and rumors were dug up from the game’s source code, while this new leak is in plain sight for everyone to see. In fact, players could potentially see it just by walking around their own town, so this leak may be difficult to avoid.

Ultron May Be Coming Sooner Than You Think
Is The Nefarious Robot A Season 2 Character?
It’s apretty safe assumption that Ultron is coming to the game at some point, especially with him getting merchandise before other rumored characters, and even Blade, who can be seen as an NPC on the latest map, Central Park. Season 2 is set to begin on April 11, but there hasn’t been much mention ofwhom theMarvel Rivalsseason 2 characters are. There is, however, a pretty big hint in the game’s current season narrative about what could be next.
Marvel Rivals Sets Up Its Best Costumes Yet Ahead Of a New Comic Expansion
Marvel Rivals teases stunning new in-game skins designed by acclaimed artist Peach Momoko that will be given a spotlight in an upcoming comic tie-in.
The gamecould be heading to the mutant island of Krakoa next, based on some in-game dialogue between the characters, and there have been several leaks that point toward numerous X-Men characters joining the roster in the future. But none of those rumored characters have merch yet, unlike Ultron, so it is possible that it is not the location for season 2.
Season 1’s focus was on the Fantastic Fourand Dracula, despite Blade being heavily mentioned in the narrative. With that, Blade seems likely for Season 2, but it’s not clear if Ultron will join him. However, it seems like he could appear sooner rather than later after this new leak.
Marvel Rivals Has Almost Endless Potential
There Are Tons Of Characters To Pick From
Given the huge success ofMarvel Rivals, it’s safe to assume the game will be ongoing for several years to come, and a lot of characters will be added as more seasons are released. Developer NetEase has also reiterated that both popular characters, like Captain America and Iron Man, and moreobscure characters, like Jeff the Land Shark, would be part of the game, leaving the potential virtually endless. While Ultron seems like he’s coming soon, there have been so many characters leaked that it’s hard to tell when specific characters and seasons will be released.
Season 2 forMarvel Rivalswill begin on April 11, so the characters, maps, and seasonal theme will hopefully be revealed soon.
