Marvel Rivals: When Are The Thing and Human Torch Arriving?

NetEase's Marvel Rivals Season 1 introduced Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, but fans eagerly await the arrival of The Thing and Human Torch. This guide provides an estimated release date for these highly anticipated characters.

Estimated Release Date:

The Thing and Human Torch are likely to join the Marvel Rivals roster on either February 21st or February 28th. This estimation is based on NetEase's confirmation of a six to seven-week release window following the Season 1 launch on January 10th.
