The new Marvel Rivals characters have been unveiled

NetEase Games continues the development of its multiplayer hit about superhero battles from comic books. The game was released only a month ago, and has already become a favorite pastime of millions of gamers around the world. In this regard, the developers have grandiose plans: the first season dedicated to the Fantastic Four will start on January 10. In it, users will get under their control new characters, and also try out in matches map "Empire of Endless Night" with the famous Sanctum Sanctorum in the center. However, let's tell you about everything in order.

In the story, Dracula and Dr. Doom change the orbit of the moon in order to create eternal night on Earth, and Dr. Strange is locked in an astral prison to keep him out of the way. In New York, taking advantage of the prevailing darkness, vampires are rushing around. The team known from the comics - Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Torch Man and the Creature - will have to fight them. The first and second have already received trailers showing off the features in gameplay. Reed Richards's alter ego can pummel enemies with rubber-like arms and shoot energy blobs from the emblem on his chest, while Susan Storm relies on mobility, optical illusions and barriers. The January matches will take place on a map created especially for the update.

In addition, the developers promise to introduce balance edits, prepared on the basis of analyzing the battles in the "zero" season. In particular, Captain America will be made more survivable and reduce his shield recovery time, Dr. Strange will have his attack range reduced, Thor will have his base health raised from 500 to 525 points, and Hulk's abilities will be cut down, as this hero is too dominant on the battlefield. Black Widow, Punisher, Squirrel Girl, Winter Soldier and Wolverine will also be changed.
