Release date of the next season of Marvel Rivals and end date of season 1.5.
Here is the date when the release of the second season of Marvel Rivals is anticipated.
The upcoming season of Marvel Rivals, known as Season 2, will be available shortly, allowing players to explore new Heroes and significant changes in the game. A restructuring of how Team Ups work is anticipated, along with a revamp of the mission system, making it easier to obtain new cosmetics and progress in the Battle Pass.
Recently, the developer NetEase shared the update notes that will introduce new Heroes, maps, and other features. Currently, players still have the opportunity to complete the ongoing Battle Pass, which includes an appealing Wolverine skin at its final level. So far, three strategy teams dominate the meta, although the new season is expected to offer greater variety in gameplay tactics.
Regarding new additions, the inclusion of two Heroes has been confirmed: the iconic Emma Frost from the X-Men and the sinister Ultron, although more details about the latter, who will launch in Season 2.5, are yet to be revealed. Since its release, Marvel Rivals has evolved, implementing improvements in Competitive Mode and providing constant updates that enrich the player experience.
The arrival of Season 2 is scheduled for April 11, 2025, with specific launch times depending on the time zone. For example, in the West Coast of the U.S., it will start at 5 AM PT, while in Japan, it will be at 9 PM JST. The previous season, Season 1.5, will be taken offline for a few hours before this update.
Emma Frost, who will debut at the launch of the new season, will be a new Vanguard, utilizing telekinetic abilities and engaging in close combat. Additionally, she has the ability to generate diamond shields, allowing her to block strong attacks. Her potential stands out in her attack and defense skills, positioning her as a very viable option for front-line players.
Ultron, although not yet detailed, will likely serve as the central villain of this season. The community eagerly anticipates his gameplay, which has yet to be revealed to the public.
In addition to the new Heroes, Season 2 will introduce changes to Team Ups, adding innovative combinations while removing some existing options. Balancing adjustments for several Heroes have also been announced, improving their performance in the game.
With the season just around the corner, players are excited about the revelations and new experiences that are set to arrive.
