Marvel Rivals' roster is already huge, and it's getting bigger ahead of launch, with the team unveiling five new heroes ahead of this week's release. In all, 33 heroes will be available on the starting roster, each one of them available in the free-to-play shooter to everyone. This week saw Squirrel Girl, Black Widow, Cloak & Dagger, Iron Fist, and Wolverine join the ranks, and it stands to reason that even more heroes and villains from the Marvel universe will be added over time.
Marvel Rivals will unlock on December 6th at midnight UTC (that's 7pm ET/4pm PT on December 5th for us here in the States) with players able to pre-load at midnight UTC on December 4th (same time as above, but December 3rd for us) on Steam.
