As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of comic book gaming under my belt, I can’t help but feel a surge of nostalgia and excitement at the potential addition of Captain America to the roster of Marvel Rivals. From the classic Cap we know from the 80s games, to his recent stint in Midnight Suns, this star-spangled hero has been a constant companion in my virtual battles for justice.


Based on recent rumors, it appears that Captain America might be the next character introduced in Marvel Rivals. This exciting new development comes as NetEase and Marvel Games continue to unveil the roster for their upcoming six-versus-six multiplayer game, which is currently undergoing a closed beta test. A select group of gamers have been given early access to try out the various playable characters in Marvel Rivals, ranging from well-known figures like Hulk and Spider-Man, to lesser-known heroes and villains such as Luna Snow and Jeff the Land Shark.

More recently, during San Diego Comic-Con 2024, Marvel Rivals was unveiled alongside Thor. At present, this game boasts 23 playable characters, but there are numerous whispers online about potential new additions. Following the commencement of the closed beta test, players of Marvel Rivals started finding hints suggesting that Deadpool and Spider-Gwen might join the game’s impressive lineup.

Meanwhile, a Reddit user by the handle of BucketHerro recently shared what seems to be a leaked promotional image on r/marvelrivals – one that shows Captain America alongside already-confirmed Marvel Rivals characters Storm and Thor. Steve Rogers is sporting an armored outfit similar to the Marvel Rivals versions of Magneto and Iron Man, with a glowing blue light on his hand that some Reddit users think could be used to recall his iconic shield after it’s thrown in battle. Some other leakers are claiming that this version of Cap is from the year 2099, which has served as the setting for some of the game’s stages, and he is rumored to be a Vanguard per other leaks online.

Marvel Rivals Could Be Adding Captain America

For comic book enthusiasts, Captain America is a household name, having stood as a beacon of freedom and justice since the late 80s in Marvel video games. Recent console appearances include “Marvel’s Midnight Suns” and the discontinued “Marvel’s Avengers.” In the upcoming game “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra,” Captain America will join forces with the Italian Black Panther on the World War II battlefield.

Based on the credibility of leaker Miller Ross and the authenticity of the image shared by BucketHerro, it appears likely that Captain Steve Rogers, a well-established and iconic Marvel character, could potentially join the cast of characters in Marvel Rivals. This potential inclusion might not come as a shock given his long-standing reputation within the Marvel universe. The latest leak has sparked curiosity regarding how Captain America will perform in Marvel Rivals, with his signature shield and enhanced combat skills from the Super Soldier serum adding both offensive and defensive capabilities to his character. As the beta test for Marvel Rivals is nearing its end, players should make use of the remaining time to fully explore the game before it officially launches.
