The next two Marvel Rivals heroes may have been teased in a background image

The excitement around Marvel Rivals keeps growing, as players continue waiting for the next wave of characters. It seems that NetEase has subtly hinted at two new X-Men joining the roster soon.

While they don’t officially appear in the latest patch notes, sharp-eyed fans noticed them elsewhere. A closer look at the hero image for the recent update reveals two familiar figures — Gambit and Rogue — standing subtly in the background.

“GAMBIT AND ROGUE FIRST LOOK — New heroes coming to Rivals Season 5 were spotted by @mmmmmmmmiller in the patch notes background, and thanks to @badguyjohn, a clearer version of the two heroes was made.”

Version 2025/11/06 of Marvel Rivals replaced the usual Black Panther silhouette with this new teaser, making it a quiet but thrilling announcement for fans. With Season 4 expected to end on November 14, 2025, the timing seems perfect for building anticipation for Season 5.

The real question now is not who will join but what roles they will play. Earlier seasons leaned heavily on Duelists, while the lineup still lacks balance between Vanguards and Strategists. NetEase appears focused on narrowing that gap in upcoming updates.

Author’s summary:

The discovery of Gambit and Rogue in Marvel Rivals’ latest update hints at their arrival in Season 5, expanding the X-Men roster and sparking speculation about their roles.
