Marvel Rivals is setting up to be a promising free-to-play title, but its newest monetization update has gotten fans even more excited.

Like Overwatch, the character roles determine how a certain hero is supposed to be played, supporting other players in the team in pre-determined ways. Here is a basic rundown of each Marvel Rivals role: Vanguard - These characters can deal heavy damage and shield allies from harm, essentially working as "tanks" in other hero shooters.

Like most shooters, Marvel Rivals will include seasonal battle passes. However, unlike most games in the genre, purchased battle passes won't expire at the end of a season. Players will instead be able to continue making progress on old battle passes after the end of a season, much like the battle pass system in Halo Infinite.

Trained in the infamous Red Room to anticipate anything, the Black Widow is always ready for action! For years, she put her unrivaled combat skills to use as a member of the Avengers, keeping pace with some of the most powerful beings who ever lived.

NetEase Games surprises fans by announcing that all players will have the opportunity to claim a free skin within Marvel Rivals upon release.
