Boasting nearly 300,000 Steam players just a month after launch, Marvel Rivals has quickly captured the attention of gamers. For weeks, players have been exploring the diverse roster of Marvel heroes and villains, all accessible without paywalls or progression barriers. But the excitement doesn't stop there—even more iconic characters are on the horizon, most notably the Fantastic Four: Mr. Fantastic, the Human Torch, the Thing, and the Invisible Woman.
