r/MarvelRivalsVillains

I know it's Marvel, and they have no issues with getting into politics and corruption, but if they add Hydra, it feels like a potential cause for issues amongst the people who play the game because they will be playing as and profiting off of characters who are Nazi's.

I would love to have them but I don't know if it's possible to have them without a massive outbreak.

+ It would be funny to kill Hydra members as Magneto

Miller Ross is a content creator/dataminer known for reporting on and promoting Marvel games as well as being an insider for behind-the-scenes content since he joined the official Marvel Rivals Creator Program. While he cannot confirm/deconfirm heroes, it’s still fun to speculate, and I’ll be making posts summarizing the hints/leaks/spoilers in his streams for those who missed them or just want the important details.

•”Cunty girl heroes” are in the works.

•Pantsuit Emma Frost and Magneto weren’t intended for skins. NE has heard the demand for the Emma Frost skin.

•When he said season 10/11 was “ballsy”, he was referring to the fact that it was going to be only one/no heroes. Season 11 was meant to have no hero. Season 10 was meant for only Gorr which is why he’s the only one teased in the gallery card. (This does not mean that NE was intending on having a four month hiatus after releasing Gorr.)

•Can’t talk about a woman releasing this year as they’re “…too concrete…” he says.

•Crescent and Blue Marvel are only a rumor that “…was pulled completely out of someone’s ass…” he says.

•Says NE is aware that people want a Scarlet Witch rework.

•”Lots.” of villains coming he says, and he knows one of their roles. Later he says there’s strategist villains coming.

•Says they have to space out the S-tier heroes in reference to Captain Marvel. Says that the Captain Marvel fans are the loudest fandom left to add.

•Says “You don’t want Phoenix, you basically want Hope (Summers).” in reference to fans wanting Phoenix as a support.

•There’s POC coming next year. Says “We might.” have a black woman in the pipeline.

•Confirms DP/Gambit were originally DPS.

•Says more cosmic characters are coming.

•Says the workload is sustainable if they pull back. (This is important because it was rumored that NE was struggling creating a hero every month, which is why we have the new team-up system.)

•Skins for everyone in the works.

•There is hope for Polaris and he is looking forward to her. No crumbs…

•Has news about the Switch 2.

•NE has had discussions about adding Young Avengers and Hellcow. (They didn’t choose to move forward with Hellcow.) Confirms Kate Bishop would be her own character and not a skin for Hawkeye.

•NE wanted a full X-Men team out after the “…small launch roster (of X-Men).” Says there will always be mutants and confirms year 2 will have about as many as year 1.

•Saw a gaggy Storm skin but hasn’t seen a model for it.

•Says NE is a big fan of the supernatural side of Marvel and they won’t neglect it. Furthermore, he says he only knows of one character that has been completely scrapped and they’re unfortunately from the supernatural world and that someone mentioned them in the stream. (Not super important but if you want to go back to the stream to speculate, it’s there.)

•Says The Hood was unscrapped in late 2025 and is very similar to his prototype.

•Confirms that more than two heroes a season won’t be happening.

•”Dracula has come back a couple times […] stands to reason Apocalypse will too…” he says.

•Says Nico Minoru and MODOK are on NE radar. (“on their radar” is his cheat answer.)

•Says “They prob rather I didn’t talk about that…” when asked about if Amaranth was “real” from a fan.

•Says another duo hero is possible. His choices would be Cypher & Warlock, Longshot & Shatterstar, Northstar & Aurora, and Byrdie & Howard the Duck.

•”What role would you want for Kitty Pryde?” “NPC.” he says…

•Says that the bald majority thing he said last year was when he thought they were doing 9 characters. (This is important because it was rumored Professor X was delayed, meaning there is a possibility that this is true. Also, it implies there might be a second character coming with Doctor Doom. He probably won’t be alone.)

•Says villains will work like heroes, some will appear in comics/lore and in the game as NPCs (like Dracula) before being promoted into playable characters.

NOTE: This is not everything he talks about but just the most important bits.
