Marvel Rivals game director says it'll be getting a new hero every month and a half, which hopefully isn't a display of classical hubris

Rocket Raccoon sits atop Groot's shoulders in Marvel Rivals.

Marvel Rivals landed with a wide roster, boasting 33 heroes when it launched on December 5. Just over a month later, the hero shooter's received two additions to its lineup, thanks to the arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman with the advent of Season 1. NetEase has set an impressive pace—and according to game director Guangyun Chen, the studio has no intention of slowing down.

In an interview with Metro, Chen discussed the reception to the game's release and where NetEase's philosophy stands for game balancing and content updates going forward. When asked about the rate at which the studio is planning to add new heroes, Chen said we can expect to see newcomers on the Marvel Rivals roster as often as every month and a half.
