Marvel Rivals Leak Hints at Five New Heroes, Including Professor X and Colossus
A fresh leak suggests that five new heroes are poised to join the 6v6 shooter, Marvel Rivals, generating considerable excitement among fans. The leaked roster includes the highly anticipated Professor X and Colossus, bolstering an already impressive lineup.
This isn't the first leak to stir anticipation. Previous whispers hinted at the potential addition of Valkyrie and Sam Wilson, further fueling speculation within the community. The uncertainty surrounding which version of Valkyrie—comics or MCU—might appear adds to the intrigue. Similarly, the possibility of Sam Wilson's inclusion, despite his shared identity as Captain America with Steve Rogers, presents an interesting dynamic.
Dataminer X0X_LEAK's recent Twitter post reveals the potential new heroes: Professor X, Jia Jing, Paste Pot Pete, Colossus, and Locus. This leak is particularly promising for Support mains, as Professor X, Jia Jing, and Locus are all reportedly being considered for this role. While Professor X requires no introduction, Jia Jing, with her fairy wings and rock-like skin, offers unique gameplay potential. Locus, representing multiple characters, most notably Rayna Piper, promises teleportation, flight, and energy blasts.
The leak also suggests a new Vanguard character: Colossus. His absence from the initial roster has made him a highly sought-after addition, given his popularity and potential in the game. Paste Pot Pete, a notorious member of the Frightful Four, is rumored to be the new Duelist. His long history in Marvel Comics, debuting in 1962 and later adopting the alias Trapster, adds another layer of depth to the potential additions.
Potential New Heroes:
- Professor X
- Jia Jing
- Paste Pot Pete
- Colossus
- Locus
It's crucial to remember that this information remains unconfirmed. However, the prospect of adding such iconic figures as Professor X and Colossus, alongside lesser-known but intriguing characters like Jia Jing and Paste Pot Pete, has significantly heightened anticipation for future Marvel Rivals updates. The inclusion of Paste Pot Pete is particularly interesting given the recent addition of the Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic from the Fantastic Four.
