NetEase has officially teased Marvel Rivals Season 5, confirming Rogue and Gambit as the next playable heroes.
Marvel Rivals fans won’t have to wait much longer for new content. After weeks of teasers, leaks, and speculation, NetEase has officially lifted the curtain on Season 5, confirming the two new heroes joining the roster.
Season 4 is winding down after a strong few months, bringing Daredevil, Angela, and the fan-favorite “Marvel Zombies” PvE mode into the mix. That season wraps up on November 14, setting the stage for what’s next, and today, we’ve got the full picture.
Over the past few weeks, the community has been piecing together leaks and datamines that hinted at the next big heroes. Clues hidden in the game’s files and small in-game references pointed to Rogue and Gambit, two fan-favorite mutants from the X-Men universe.
Patch notes for this week’s update even showed their silhouettes tucked into the background, practically confirming what everyone suspected, but nothing was confirmed.
Marvel Rivals Season 5: Trailer, Confirms New Heroes, Map & More
In a new teaser shared across Marvel Rivals’ official social media accounts earlier today, NetEase revealed that Season 5 is titled “Love Is a Battlefield.” The announcement came in the form of a stylized wedding invitation featuring Anna Marie (Rogue) and Remy LeBeau (Gambit), a perfect nod to the couple’s long and complicated history in the Marvel universe.
The invitation confirms the date November 11, 2025 (tomorrow), with the “venue” listed as Krakoa, home of the X-Men. The design leans into a romantic playing-card theme, complete with hearts, spades, and the signatures of both characters. The post was captioned with:
The caption for the teaser image reads: “Some bonds are forged in battle. Others are written in destiny. Gambit and Rogue are tying the knot—a duo defined by danger, devotion, and unstoppable chemistry. When love meets power, the world takes notice. Tomorrow, the story takes center stage, and we warmly invite you to join us in celebrating this special day!”
It ends with a clear hint: “Tomorrow, the story takes center stage.” This all but confirms that the official Season 5 trailer will drop on November 11, giving players their first full look at the update before its expected release on November 14.
So, there we have it. The official confirmation that the two new playable heroes in Season 5 are indeed Rogue and Gambit, a long-requested duo known for their chaotic chemistry and unique powers.
Right now, it’s unclear what their roles will be. But based on the leaks, Rogue is a Strategist, uses her signature power-stealing abilities to temporarily borrow enemy skills mid-battle. Meanwhile, Gambit appears to be a Duelist, fights using kinetic-charged playing cards.
Check out their official looks below.
We also get a look at the new map, which appears to be themed around The Collector’s Theme Park. The trailer also teases new skins, a new battle pass, and more. Of course, we’ll get more details on everything new when the new update is live.
