Rumors have been swirling in the Marvel Rivals community, and it looks like Professor X might soon make his way into the game. With Season 1: Eternal Night Falls nearing its conclusion and Season 2 kicking off on April 11, fans are buzzing about new additions like Emma Frost joining the growing lineup. This expansion has certainly stirred excitement among players.
NetEase Games recently shared plans to inject even more thrill into Marvel Rivals by introducing a new hero every month starting in Season 3. They’ve also decided to trim the seasons to just two months each. This approach aims to keep the gameplay fresh and players hooked, allowing more chances to step into the shoes of beloved Marvel characters. Fans are all for it, eagerly anticipating an influx of content.
A noted leaker, X0X_LEAK, has been dropping hints on Twitter about Professor X being one of the new heroes ready to join Marvel Rivals. They mentioned finding updated files that point to this possibility. However, it’s unlikely we’ll see Professor X in Season 2, as Emma Frost and Ultron have already been lined up.
Interestingly, X0X_LEAK suggested that Professor X could play a support role, helping teammates with healing and buffs. Players have been clamoring for more Vanguards and Strategists, as Duelists currently dominate the game. This news has sparked speculation about a broader inclusion of X-Men characters, potentially hinting at a mutant-centric season.
Adding credibility to these leaks, a Professor X statue recently appeared in the trailer for the Krakoa map, which rolls out with Season 2 on April 11. With such a promising lineup of updates, Marvel Rivals players are feeling optimistic about what’s next for their gaming experience.
