Marvel Rivals season two will last for exactly three months, the same amount of time as season one. After this, though, all future seasons will only last for two months, with a new hero launching each month moving forward. Screenshot by Destructoid What's included in Marvel Rivals season 2? The patch notes for Marvel Rivals season two have already been unveiled, so we have a pretty solid idea of what to expect. There's new content for just about everything featured in the game, including additional playable characters, maps, skins, and more. The first new hero launching this season is Emma Frost. She's a super tanky Vanguard with psychic powers and impenetrable diamond skin. Her kit is extremely flexible and versatile for most combat situations. The way you play her also changes depending on whether or not you've got her Diamond Form activated, so there's a lot you can do with her. Team-Ups are going to look a bit different in season two. Some of them are being adjusted, while others are being completely removed. Metallic Chaos and Voltaic Union are gone, while Mental Projection, Stars Aligned, and Arcane Order join the lineup. Emma Frost's Hellfire Gala is taking place at Krakoa, which means we get a fresh map to play on. Krakoa is a mutant island and haven for all mutantkind. It also has plenty of X-Men Easter eggs, like a statue of Professor X and Logan, Psylocke's pet. Screenshot by Destructoid Lots of buffs and nerfs are kicking off the start of season two. Black Widow, Bruce Banner/Hulk, Hawkeye, Iron Man, Peni Parker, Mister Fantastic, Moon Knight, and Scarlet Witch are getting enhancements. Adam Warlock, Loki, Captain America, Doctor Strange, Invisible Woman, Magneto, Star-Lord, Winter Soldier, Rocket Raccoon, Wolverine, and The Thing are getting nerfed. Season two also introduces the Hellfire Gala battle pass. There are plenty of new outfits, nameplates, emotes, MVP screens, sprays, and more you can unlock by completing it. Most of the Hellfire Gala outfits you can get are obtainable through this pass, although some are shop or event items like the Scarlet Witch Chaos Gown skin. We don't know much about the second half of season two yet, but we can expect to see one new hero and a few other fresh features. This likely includes another map, plenty of additional outfits, adjustments to playable characters' abilities, and a few events. Ultron is expected to be the second hero released this season since he is featured in the season two trailer, but outside of this information, we'll have to wait until the second half of season two is closer to learn more.
