Marvel has dropped a new trailer for its upcoming 6v6 hero shooter, Marvel Rivals, revealing the final five characters joining the game's roster: Wolverine, Black Widow, Iron Fist, Squirrel Girl, and Cloak and Dagger. The company announced that each character will be "fully revealed" in a separate trailer per day leading up to the game's launch on December 6th.
The latest trailer offers a glimpse into the characters' attacks, showcasing some exciting team-up moves. One notable example is a Hulk-Wolverine combo, where the Hulk flings Wolverine at their adversaries. Other paired attacks include Squirrel Girl catching a Spider-Man web ball and transforming it into an exploding slingshot projectile, as well as Black Widow and Hawkeye firing side-by-side.
In addition to the character reveals, Marvel also unveiled a new map called Kyntar: Symbiotic Surface. The map's storyline revolves around the awakening of Knull, which casts a shadow over the Panther God Bast. Shuri sends the Guardians of the Galaxy to Klyntar to find a solution to this looming threat, where they encounter Venom. The two sides have differing opinions on how to defeat Knull, leading to an impasse and a decision to go their separate ways.
Marvel Rivals is set to launch on December 6th for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store). Ahead of the launch, the Marvel Games team will be hosting an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on December 4th at 10 PM ET on the game's official Discord channel. This will provide fans with an opportunity to ask questions and get more insight into the game.
