Marvel has announced that Wolverine, Black Widow, Iron Fist, Squirrel Girl, and Cloak and Dagger are set to be part of its upcoming 6 vs. 6 hero shooter.
The company disclosed in an announcement that each of them will be “fully revealed” in one trailer per day leading up to its December 6 launch.
The trailer tipped at some of the attacks the character will have, including a Hulk/Wolverine team-up that integrates the big green guy flinging Marvel’s furry short king at their adversaries.
Moreover, some other paired attacks, such as Squirrel Girl catching a Spider-Man web ball and turning it into an exploding slingshot projectile, or Black Window and Hawkeye firing side-by-side.
Additionally, Marvel disclosed a new map called "Kyntar: Symbiotic Surface" in a separate video published on Thursday.
Here's the synopsis from Marvel’s announcement mentioned below.
"The awakening Knull has cast a shadow over the Panther God Bast. In response, Shuri sends the Guardians of the Galaxy to Klyntar to seek a solution to this looming threat. After the Milano crashes on Klyntar, the Guardians bump into Venom."
"The two sides have different opinions on how to defeat Knull: Venom, having extracted the Knull Essence from a controlled symbiote, argues for caution due to its volatile nature and the risk of harming the planet’s symbiotes.
With Knull still dormant, Venom prefers to wait until they can harness this power safely. On the other hand, the Guardians, tasked by Shuri, are eager to immediately neutralise Knull’s influence over the gods, including Bast. At an impasse, they decide to go their separate ways."
Marvel Rivals is set to come to PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store) on December 6, while before that, the Marvel Games team is set to host an AMA on December 4 at 10 pm ET on the game’s official Discord.
