Marvel Rivals lets players take control of their favorite heroes and villains to battle in Overwatch-style 6v6 matches. With the Closed Beta, players will be able to try these characters out early.

Each hero and villain has their own unique moveset that fits a certain playstyle, from long-range specialists to damage-soaking tanks. But, which familiar faces make up the roster? Here is every character in Marvel Rivals so far.

Star-Lord is one of the Guardians of the Galaxy characters featured in the roster.

Will there be post-launch characters in Marvel Rivals?

Marvel Rivals will receive new characters after launch, as confirmed by devs NetEase in the announcement blog. The game will be supported by seasonal updates that deliver fresh content, and new members of the roster are very much part of the roadmap.

They said: “Each seasonal drop will introduce new Super Heroes to the battlefield along with challenging and diverse maps!”

There have been no announcements or even teases about who these new characters could be. But, given the sheer number of different super-powered personalities the brand has created over the years, there are plenty of heroes that would fit seamlessly into a PvP multiplayer game.

The official reveal trailer showed off Galacta. She was used for the Closed Alpha Test announcement, but it isn’t clear at this stage if she will be a playable fighter or more of a background presence.

The official Marvel Rivals website also mentions that Doctor Doom and his 2099 variant will be the main villain of the multiverse-spanning story. Again though, there is no word yet on whether Victor will be getting his hands dirty by joining the roster.

Those were all of the characters in Marvel Rivals at launch, we’ll be sure to update this page with new fighters that get announced. Until then, check out whether the game is coming to consoles, a breakdown of its game modes, and if it’ll be free to play at launch.
