Key Takeaways

  • Hawkeye was spotted in Marvel Rivals’ Moon Knight gameplay reveal, hinting at a future addition.
  • Marvel Rivals’ beta test gave fans the chance to try out characters like Black Panther and Doctor Strange.
  • Speculation rises around the potential inclusion of Hawkeye, boosting interest in the game.

As a long-time Marvel enthusiast and avid gamer, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and skepticism upon seeing the potential addition of Hawkeye to Marvel Rivals’ roster. I’ve been following this game since its announcement, and the beta testing phase has already given us a taste of what’s to come with characters like Black Panther and Doctor Strange.

A dedicated fan of “Marvel Rivals” has noticed the inclusion of Hawkeye in the roster during the Moon Knight’s gameplay unveiling video. While the game is scheduled for release in December, more information about it keeps surfacing, such as this potential sneak peek at Hawkeye.

Before its official launch, some fortunate players have had the opportunity to test out “Marvel Rivals” during the beta testing phase. In this pre-release version, gamers could select characters like Black Panther, Doctor Strange, and Thor to play with. Similar to other hero-based games, it’s anticipated that “Marvel Rivals” will continue to receive new content after its release, such as cosmetic items for players to use. This additional content might include fresh maps, characters (heroes and villains), some of which have only made appearances in the comics so far. During Moon Knight’s recent unveiling, certain players speculate they may have spotted Hawkeye, a character yet to be officially announced.

Reddit user Noblu8 recently posted a snapshot of IGN’s Marvel Rivals Moon Knight gameplay reveal, featuring a kill feed showing Hawkeye defeated by the Winter Soldier. This kill feed is similar to that in Overwatch 2, displaying which character defeated another along with account names. In this instance, the Winter Soldier who killed Hawkeye was later defeated by a punch from the Hulk. Although it’s challenging to identify particular Hawkeye features of Marvel Rivals based on this screenshot, the small image appears to resemble the bow-wielding hero.

Marvel Rivals’ Moon Knight Reveal May Have Spoiled the Next Character

It’s possible that the inclusion of Hawkeye in the Moon Knight’s gameplay footage was a deliberate move, despite being seemingly accidental. A clue pointing towards this could be the fact that the account name associated with Hawkeye in the Moon Knight gameplay was used for Moon Knight during Marvel Rivals’ Psylocke showcase. This might imply that Marvel Rivals is planning to introduce future characters and villains in their reveals, creating excitement among fans who pay close attention. This speculation could generate more buzz around the game before its release, potentially increasing interest in it. With Hawkeye becoming increasingly popular due to his roles in the Avengers movies and the Disney Plus series, his appearance in Marvel Rivals could attract a larger audience.

Although the Moon Knight gameplay has been confirmed, it’s advisable to approach the rumor of Hawkeye joining Marvel Rivals with some skepticism. New characters are usually subjected to testing before they become available, so it might still be a while until Hawkeye is officially included in the game, even though he’s been mentioned. Keep in mind that since the game hasn’t launched yet, there could be changes between now and its scheduled release date on December 6.
