When Human Torch & The Thing will arrive in Marvel Rivals? Potential release timeline

Marvel Rivals is one of the most played games worldwide right now

With the release of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals season 1, many fans and players are wondering when Human Torch and The Thing will be released. From the recent video from developers, we already know that these two heroes will be part of the second half of season 1.

Season 1 is 3 months long, which is divided into two halves. The second half will provide more content in the game, and in this article, we will learn more about that.

Potential release window

Season 1 of Marvel Rivals introduced Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, but fans are eager for the rest of the family. In an interview with Metro, the game’s director, Guangyun Chen, said that new heroes are added every six weeks. Given that Season 1 began on January 10, we may expect The Thing and Human Torch to make their spectacular arrival on February 21, 2025.

However, the developer’s reference of a “six or seven weeks” break in the “Marvel Rivals Season 1 Begins Dev Vision Vol. 03” video suggests a one-week delay, pushing their launch to February 28.

Also, according to leaks, we can expect more new skins, content, new maps and more that might be available in the second half of the season 1.
