The 6v6 multiplayer shooter Marvel Rivals features some of the biggest characters from the comics and MCU. Here’s the full roster of heroes and villains.
While drawing many comparisons to Overwatch 2, Marvel Rivals has several unique features that make it stand out. One example is how you can use team-up abilities when pairing certain characters together and a destructible environment.
The Closed Alpha introduced 19 playable characters with different abilities and ultimates, and the good news is that there are more to come, as in the Closed Beta they added two new characters.
So we’ve compiled a list of the full roster for Marvel Rivals, including confirmed and leaked heroes and villains.
