"Marvel Rivals" has revealed the full lineup and release schedule for its Year 1 Character Pass. Phoenix Cyclops, who was previously unveiled, will be the first to launch on November 2, 2026, followed by Jane Foster's Thor, Venom, and X-Men character Jubilee.
The development team released a new trailer after EVO France, completing the Year 1 Pass roadmap. In a developer article, producer Takeshi Yamanaka stated that the team aims to present Cyclops, who has appeared in many fighting games before, with a fresh look and combat style. Inspired by the "Avengers vs. X-Men" storyline, Phoenix Cyclops can perform both ranged and melee attacks with optic blasts, while his Dark Phoenix abilities enhance his power at the cost of health.
Jane Foster's Thor will join the roster in winter, with the trailer showcasing Mjolnir. Venom is scheduled for a spring release, accompanied by a new stage themed around the symbiote planet Klyntar. Jubilee is set to arrive in summer 2027.
The Year 1 Character Pass is priced at $35 and is already included in the Deluxe and Ultimate Editions.
