Marvel Rivals might be getting a supernatural upgrade. A cryptic tweet hints that Blade could join the roster in Season 3. Here’s what we know so far, and why the timing makes perfect sense.
Blade Might Be Slicing Into Marvel Rivals in Season 3
It looks like the Daywalker himself could be making his Marvel Rivals debut very soon. Fans have been keeping their eyes peeled for signs, and a new cryptic social media post has only added fuel to the fire.
A Hint Drops from the Shadows
The latest buzz began with a post from the official Marvel Rivals Twitter account. It featured Jeff the Land Shark peering into an empty sleeping bag—Blade’s, to be precise—and wondering where the vampire hunter disappeared to. While that already had fans raising eyebrows, executive producer Danny Koo made things even more interesting by quoting the post and dropping three classic thinking emojis.
Naturally, the internet did what it does best: speculate wildly. And honestly, they might be onto something this time.
The Timing Makes Sense
Marvel Rivals has been steadily rolling out new characters since launch. Season 2 brought in Ultron, who stormed the Hellfire Gala on Krakoa Island, shaking things up in a big way. With that storyline wrapping up soon, a new hero sliding in for Season 3 feels just right.
And let’s be real—Blade fits perfectly. His slick swordplay, vampire lore, and cool factor would add something fresh to the roster. Plus, after all the noise surrounding his stalled MCU movie and surprise cameo in Deadpool and Wolverine, Blade is back on fans’ radars.
Blade's Been Busy in Games Lately
This wouldn’t be Blade’s first rodeo in the gaming world. He was a fan-favorite in Marvel’s Midnight Suns back in 2022, slashing his way through supernatural enemies. And we already know he's set to star in Marvel’s Blade, the new action game being developed by Arkane Studios (the folks behind Dishonored and Redfall). So his arrival in Marvel Rivals would be yet another welcome appearance in a game lineup that's showing him some serious love.
When Could Blade Drop?
If all signs point in the right direction, fans won’t have to wait too long. Marvel Rivals Season 2 is scheduled to end on July 10, which means Blade could show up as early as the start of Season 3. Whether he's part of a new event, the main battle pass, or just added to the roster out of the blue, it's got players hyped.
Nothing’s official yet, but the teasing is real, and the community is ready. Blade's mix of stealth, power, and style would be a killer addition to Marvel Rivals. So if you're hoping to join the fight with some silver-edged weapons and vampire-slaying moves, keep your eyes locked on those Season 3 updates. The Daywalker might be about to rise.
