Upcoming Season and Hero Roles
With Marvel Rivals Season 4 concluding on November 14, 2025, this is an ideal moment for the soft launch of new characters. The pressing question remains what roles Gambit and Rogue will play, as previous seasons have featured an imbalance with many Duelists compared to Vanguards and Strategists. NetEase appears to be addressing this gap gradually.
