Recent leaks regarding Marvel Rivals have confirmed that Blade and Phoenix are set to join Season 3 of the game. This news has been anticipated for some time, and the latest revelations indicate that their introduction is imminent. Season 2 of Marvel Rivals commenced on April 11, featuring a theme centered around the Hellfire Gala, a pivotal event in the comics that celebrates the mutant nation.
NetEase introduced new maps, Krakoa and Arakko, alongside the addition of Emma Frost as a new playable Vanguard. Following Frost, Ultron was brought into the game, significantly expanding the roster of playable Strategists. Now, excitement builds as rumors circulate about the next characters to arrive.
On the Marvel Rivals Leaks subreddit, user VeniceArtime posted an image indicating that Blade and Phoenix will be part of Season 3. The post also highlights Twitch Drops slated for July, suggesting that “Phoenix and Blade will ignite the action in Season 3.” It mentions that the upcoming season, titled “Abyss Awaken,” will include new team-ups, rumored Venomized skins, and introduces “sizzling summer events,” hinting at the highly anticipated summer skins. Additionally, a significant leak in December 2024 noted Jean Grey/Phoenix as an upcoming character, along with features already available in the game, like Storm’s collaboration with Human Torch.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting Blade’s arrival, especially after his storyline in Season 1, where he is imprisoned by Dracula on the Central Park map. Various rumors suggest he is finally ready to make his debut. Speculation points to Marvel Rivals Season 3 launching on July 11, with a theme focusing on Klyntar.
This could mean a new map inspired by the symbiotes, with Knull as the primary antagonist. However, it’s essential to remember that these details are just speculation until officially confirmed by the developers.
