Marvel Rivals Human Torch leaked: Weapons, abilities, everything we know

by

As a longtime Marvel fan who has witnessed the growth of the Fantastic Four from the comic books to the big screen, I am beyond excited about the upcoming addition of Human Torch to Marvel Rivals! The leaked details have only heightened my anticipation for this flame-wielding hero.

Based on a recent leak, here’s a glimpse at the anticipated arsenal and skills of the Human Torch once he officially becomes part of the game roster in Marvel Rivals.

In the debut of Marvel Rivals, there were 33 characters available for gameplay, which included heavyweights like The Punisher and Magneto, alongside fan favorites such as Spider-Man and Scarlet Witch.

In the coming months, NetEase intends to grow the roster of heroes, and it’s been hinted that one newcomer will be Marvel’s very first superhero.

Let’s discuss the current details regarding Johnny Storm/Human Torch’s role in Marvel Rivals and an estimate for his release date.

When is Human Torch coming to Marvel Rivals?

Earlier, an advertisement for Marvel Rivals (unintentionally) revealed that a member of the Fantastic Four team is set to take part in the excitement.

Speculations suggest that the character Human Torch might debut in Season 1, slated to start around the beginning of January 2025, though the exact date remains undisclosed.

At press time, though, NetEase Games has not officially announced plans for the hero.

Human Torch’s leaked weapons

On Twitter/X, a trusted source known as RivalLeaks posted in-game snapshots showcasing the abilities and attack patterns of the character, Human Torch.

For a three-star character, mastering the mutate should be achievable, and with his role as a Duelist, Marvel Rivals is planning to introduce another Damage Per Second (DPS) character into their roster.

Who is Human Torch in Marvel Rivals?

Currently, the background story of the Human Torch within his game isn’t disclosed yet. But it’s worth noting that he was Marvel Comics’ pioneer superhero, debuting in issue #1 back in 1939.

In today’s world, Johnny Storm from the 616 universe experiences a cosmic ray exposure when Dr. Reed Richards launches him, along with Sue Storm and Ben Grimm, into outer space. The impact of these rays grants them extraordinary abilities, thereby laying the groundwork for what eventually evolves into the Fantastic Four.
