Marvel Rivals may introduce two new X-Men characters in the upcoming season. Timothy "Timaugustin" Augustin from NetEase Games subtly hinted at the next two playable heroes.
In the recently released Season 4 patch notes, players noticed faint header art featuring X-Men characters Rogue and Gambit. These two were also hinted at in the Season 4 lore text, indicating their arrival is near.
The patch notes primarily highlight additions related to Marvel Zombies but also offer a glimpse of Season 5's characters. Rogue and Gambit appear in the header art in a low-opacity style.
"It looks like NetEase is leaning on classic comicbook designs for the two heroes, with Gambit sporting his signature headpiece, and Rogue wearing her classic jacket."
A Twitter/X user named Badguyjohn shared an edited version of the artwork, providing a clearer look at both heroes' appearances. Gambit is depicted playing with a D20 dice, hinting at a fresh take on his usual card-based powers.
Players are advised to stay alert for updates and official announcements.
