Marvel Rivals is already gearing up to launch with a packed roster, but fans know that the developers at NetEase are waiting to reveal their biggest names in the game.
With a lot of players now gearing up for the closed beta, dataminers have allegedly found a bunch on characters in the game index that have not yet been officially revealed by the game. Check these out:
Here's a complete list of playable characters currently indexed in the Closed Alpha Test build, with their corresponding number:
1011 Hulk
1014 Punisher
1015 Storm
1016 Loki
1017 Human Torch
1018 Doctor Strange
1020 Mantis
1021 Hawkeye
1022 Captain America
1023 Rocket Raccoon…— Miller Ross (@mmmmmmmmiller) May 8, 2024
Among the unannounced Marvel Rivals characters include, the Fantastic Four roster, Hawkeye, Captain America, Cloak & Dagger, Ultron, Moon Knight, Squirrel Girl, Black Widow, Venom, Thor, Winter Soldier, Blade, Adam Warlock, Jeff the Landshark, Psylocke, Wolverine, and Iron Fist (Lin Lie).
And though she wasn’t revealed with the intial roster, we now have a full character reveal for Hela:
None may challenge Hela’s will! The Queen of Hel bestows her might upon those daring enough to join her! Gather the powers of Nastrond, from cursed crows to a rain of nightswords! As the living world trembles before death, Hela rises as the most chilling Duelist.
As the Timestream Entanglement erodes the veil between life and death, the Asgardian villain seeks to expand her rule beyond the Ten Realms! Dark dealings with her kin and other dark deities may be necessary, calling night upon the mortal Multiverse!
Based on the characters that have been officially revealed, and the ones that have been data-mined, it looks like we’re going to get a roster of 39 playable characters. We don’t know how NetEase plans to release them, but it’s possible they could be going the Overwatch route, releasing them based on player experience with most of the profits coming from cosmetics.
For now, fans are just waiting for the beta, but hopefully they’ll be able to work out the kinks and reveal even more characters by launch sometime later in the year.
The closed alpha for Marvel Rivals takes place on May 10.
