Information has surfaced online about two upcoming characters — Ultron and Blade in Marvel Rivals, which is set to release tomorrow, December 6th. The leak was shared by the dataminer @RivalsLeaks on their X (formerly known as Twitter) account.
According to the published posts, the appearance of the heroes has been revealed, along with descriptions of one of them. The leak indicates that Ultron will primarily function as a support character with a unique combination of offensive and healing abilities.
His skill set includes several standout mechanics aimed at assisting allies while providing the ability to deal significant damage. Here's a breakdown of his abilities:
Main Attack: ENCEPHALO-RAY
Ultron releases a focused energy beam designed to deal direct damage to enemies.
Passive ability: ALGORITHM CORRECTION A passive ability that allows Ultron to hover or slow his descent while holding the jump button, providing strategic aerial positioning.
Secondary Attack: DYNAMIC FLIGHT
Ultron gains mobility with a quick dash in any direction, entering free-flight mode to improve positioning.
E Ability: IMPERATIVE: FIREWALL
Summons drones that provide bonus health to nearby allies. This effect centers on Ultron and is prioritized to an ally marked by the IMPERATIVE: PATCH ability.
LShift: IMPERATIVE: PATCH
Commands a large drone to follow a marked ally, healing them and other nearby allies over time. The healing effect is amplified for the specifically marked ally.
Ultimate Ability: RAGE OF ULTRON
Ultron unleashes a fleet of drones that fire ENCEPHALO-RAY, damaging enemies or healing allies within range, making this a powerful and versatile ability.
In contrast to Ultron, nothing is known about Blade’s role in Marvel Rivals, his abilities, skills, etc. Overall, one can only speculate that he will exhibit vampirism, powerful blade attacks, high speed, and high jumps, among other traits. The only leaked detail about Blade is his in-game model.
Additionally, a few more heroes who will appear in the game have been announced, including:
- Invisible Woman
- The Thing
- Phoenix
- Emma Frost
- Human Torch
Based on user feedback under the dataminer's posts, they are very interested in the upcoming game and the future appearance of these heroes, as they are some of the most intriguing and iconic characters of the Marvel universe, who are not often featured in games dedicated to this universe.
Marvel Rivals is a hero-based team PvP set in the Marvel universe, created by NetEase Games and Marvel Games. The game will be available on December 6th for Windows and the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles.
