The X-Men representation in Marvel Rivals continues to impress, with Emma Frost now leaked for NetEase’s shooter. Emma has been a favorite mutant in the comics for a long time, so her inclusion here will make fans everywhere happy. Considering how unique these heroes feel in the game, it will be interesting to see how this character stands out.
Frost’s leaked inclusion should mean that even more X-Men will be coming to this superhero shooter. Jean Grey had been leaked previously, so we can only assume that more characters are coming. We wouldn’t be surprised if beloved heroes like Cyclops and Gambit were added to the game one of these days.
Now, without further ado, here’s what we know about Emma Frost coming to Marvel Rivals.
Release date
Emma Frost doesn’t have a Marvel Rivals release date, at the time of writing. Despite getting leaked a while ago, it seems the character is still in the early development phase. Unlike Human Torch or Ultron, who already have character designs, nothing like that for Emma has been leaked.
Considering the lack of information, we wouldn’t be surprised if Emma Frost is released in the second or third season of Rivals. Since NetEase Games wants this shooter to last for many years, they might have to hold off on multiple fan-favorite characters for a while. At the least, Frost’s data being in the game shows work has been done.
Abilities
A post from MRivalsUpdates has revealed the abilities Emma Frost will have when she comes to Marvel Rivals. The more technical details haven’t been revealed, but here’s what the X-Men leader can do once she arrives in NetEase’s shooter.
- Psychic Blast
- Psychic Ray (Human Form)
- Psychic Ray 2
- Psychic Barrier
- Diamond Form
- Diamond Shock
- Diamond Kick
- Diamond Back Slam
- Soul Control
- Mind Control
- Mind Connection
- Piercing Spikes
We can assume that Emma’s “Diamond Form” will allow her to absorb damage for a good amount of time. In the comics, Emma often goes to this form to protect herself and do more melee damage. Many of us are interested to see how broken Emma will be once she arrives.
