There’s a good chance we’ll see Professor X join the lineup of Marvel Rivals in the near future. As the curtain closes on Season 1, titled “Eternal Night Falls,” the anticipation for Season 2, set to launch on April 11, is building. Alongside the upcoming season, fans can look forward to welcoming the Vanguard hero, Emma Frost, to the ever-growing roster, sparking excitement throughout the community.
NetEase Games has unveiled a thrilling update: starting with Season 3, a new Marvel Rivals hero will be introduced monthly. Additionally, seasons will now have a shorter lifespan, lasting two months instead of three. This change is designed to keep players engaged and offer them more opportunities to wield their favorite Marvel heroes. The community is buzzing with anticipation over this news, as it promises an abundance of new content to dive into.
A well-known leaker, X0X_LEAK, recently shared on Twitter that Professor X might soon join Marvel Rivals as one of its newest heroes. This speculation arises from the recent discovery of updated game files linked to Professor X, hinting at his impending arrival. However, fans shouldn’t expect to see him in Season 2, since Emma Frost and Ultron have already been confirmed as the next characters to grace the hero shooter.
Rumors also suggest that Professor X might fulfill a support role in Marvel Rivals, potentially providing healing and buffs to his allies. Fans have been clamoring for more Vanguards and Strategists, as they’re vastly outnumbered by Duelists in the game currently. The mention of Professor X has also sparked speculation about the arrival of more X-Men characters and the possibility of a mutant-centric season in the future.
The excitement around Professor X’s possible inclusion is fueled further by a recently featured statue of him in the reveal trailer for Marvel Rivals’ new Krakoa map, which will be released with Season 2 on April 11. With so much new content on the horizon and continuous updates, the outlook for Marvel Rivals seems promising, sparking great optimism among the gaming community.
