Overview

• Prominent leaker X0X_LEAK posted Aug. 25 clips of in-game voice interactions referencing Deadpool and Daredevil, with extensive lines tied to Deadpool and only responses to Daredevil from Venom and Squirrel Girl.
• Media reports note the leaker’s prior accuracy yet stress that NetEase has not announced either character, so the findings remain unconfirmed.
• Marvel Rivals typically adds one hero per half-season, and reporting points to Season 4 starting September 12 as the next plausible window, likely limiting any launch to a single newcomer.
• Developers have indicated more heroes are scheduled this year, and Deadpool has been rumored since December 2024 with nods in game lore.
• Community analysis raises balance concerns that both could arrive as Duelists after Season 3 introduced Phoenix and Blade, with calls for more Vanguards or Strategists instead.
