A recent leak regarding Marvel Rivals has generated excitement among fans, particularly concerning the potential integration of Blade as the next character in the game. Scheduled for release in July, the upcoming season has players eagerly anticipating new content and characters. Blade, a half-vampire antihero, has been hinted at since Season 2, where his figure was spotted in the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda map. Despite expectations for an earlier release, especially following Dracula’s role as the main antagonist in Season 1, players remain hopeful for Blade’s introduction.
Prominent leaker RivalsInfo shared insights about Blade’s abilities on social media, suggesting he may join the ranks of Marvel Rivals as a Duelist. According to the leaks, Blade possesses two primary attacks: the Blade Chopper, which utilizes Dracula’s sword, and a hunting shotgun. His skills include Blood Liberation for enhanced senses and self-healing while inflicting damage, as well as Step and Chop, which slows opponents’ movement and healing capabilities. Blade’s ultimate ability allows him to charge forward and execute a powerful sword strike.
While developer NetEase Games has yet to confirm Blade’s role, the community’s speculation continues, particularly regarding how his anti-heal ability might shift the game’s meta, especially among players focused on strategy. Additionally, many are curious about Phoenix, another rumored character for Season 3, who based on her comic abilities could serve as either a Vanguard or a Strategist. The new season titled “Abyss Awaken” could introduce a central antagonist, potentially Abyss, adding further intrigue to the evolving narrative of Marvel Rivals. Marvel Rivals is an exhilarating PVP shooter that allows players to create their own Marvel superhero teams.
With a diverse roster spanning from iconic characters to lesser-known figures, the game emphasizes strategic gameplay in destructible environments. Players can combine character abilities to unlock powerful Team-Up Skills, all while navigating dynamic battlefields inspired by various Marvel locations. As seasons progress, the game’s universe continues to evolve, promising fresh challenges and exciting updates for players.
