If the leak is accurate, theMarvel Rivalsroster will potentially balloon to 39 heroes. This is just one hero shy of the number of heroesOverwatch 2has eight years after the original game came out, so it’s likely these heroes will be added over the course of years. So far,Marvel Rivalsonly has 19 heroes confirmed in an official capacity, though the leaked roster includes some obvious inclusions like Captain America, Thor, and Wolverine.
WhetherMarvel Rivalslasts enough to see all these heroes added to the lineup remains to be seen.
