Marvel Rivals Leak Teases Valkyrie, Deadpool, and Zombified Doctor Strange

Marvel Rivals, the free-to-play team-based action shooter, is rumored to be adding Valkyrie to its growing roster of iconic heroes and villains. The leaker, X0X_LEAK, shared details about the potential addition alongside an image of Valkyrie as portrayed by Tessa Thompson in the MCU.

While details about Valkyrie’s abilities, class, and release date remain scarce, her inclusion could introduce another Asgardian powerhouse to the game, joining Thor (Vanguard), Loki (Strategist), and Hela (Duelist).

 

 

What We Know About Valkyrie

The Valkyrie, a fearless leader of the legendary Valkyrior, has been a recurring favorite in Marvel Comics, appearing across multiple timelines and storylines:

• Classic Versions: Debuted in Avengers #83 (1963) and Thor #296 (1966).
• Modern Adaptations: Starred in Fearless Defenders (2013), where she led a team of female heroes alongside Misty Knight.
• Cultural Impact: Featured prominently in the MCU, games like Marvel Future Fight, and animated series such as Wolverine and the X-Men.

In Marvel Rivals, Valkyrie’s skills could draw from her prowess as a warrior, potentially making her a Duelist or Vanguard. Her arsenal might include melee-focused attacks with her sword, Dragonfang, or enhanced mobility via her winged steed, Aragorn.

Marvel Rivals’ Growing Asgardian Line-Up

If the leak is accurate, Valkyrie will bolster the Asgardian faction in Marvel Rivals, adding diversity to the roster of:

• Thor (Vanguard): A tanky bruiser who excels in close-range combat.
• Loki (Strategist): A master of misdirection and control.
• Hela (Duelist): A high-damage specialist capable of decimating opponents in one-on-one encounters.

This synergy could bring new strategies and team compositions for fans of the Asgardian mythos.

More Leaks: Deadpool and Doctor Strange

Valkyrie isn’t the only tease from recent leaks:

• Deadpool: Rumored to join the roster, possibly tying into the upcoming Deadpool 3 movie release.
• Zombified Doctor Strange: A skin inspired by his appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

What’s Next for Marvel Rivals?

While leaks like these should be taken with a grain of salt, they highlight the game’s long-term potential. The community is eagerly awaiting an official confirmation or roadmap from NetEase to verify the exciting additions.

If Valkyrie is officially announced, it would mark a significant step in diversifying Marvel Rivals' roster with more powerful, lore-rich characters, potentially drawing even more players to the game.
