Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 teaser might have given out next season's theme

Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 is set to release on May 30, 2025. It marks the addition of Ultron to the roster, and with him, some pretty engaging lore. In fact, the lore and theme of this upcoming update may have already leaked online. According to popular Marvel Rivals source and leaker, Miller Ross, the next update could set the game up for a character with a primal force.

Primal forces in the Marvel universe are fundamental forces and laws of the universe, such as destruction, creation, and more. The leaks might be hinting at the induction of Phoenix into the roster.

Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 leaks potentially lead to Jean Grey (Phoenix)

Phoenix or Jean Grey is one of the handful of primal forces in the world of Marvel. A cosmic power, the Phoenix Force is often associated with a mutant who is considered one of the strongest characters in the Marvel multiverse.

The lore of Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 was shared by Miller Ross, who first broke it down, noting how Doom 2099 betrays the heroes and is ultimately defeated by a version of Ultron, marking the character's entry into the game. However, before the heroes get a chance to celebrate, a grave alert is sounded by Adam Warlock.

According to this lore, Knull, who happens to be a primal force, will re-emerge once more. Therefore, the heroes will need a primal of their own. As one of the best heroes and a known friend, Jean Grey, also known as Phoenix, will likely become the heroes' primal ally.

If the lore provided by Miller Ross is accurate, we could very well get the mutant in the game in the near future. Marvel Rivals already has several popular mutants — including Wolverine, Storm, Magneto, and one of the newest additions, Emma Frost, the Vanguard mutant.

Overall, the game is set to get even more interesting as it delves deeper into the lore from the comics, exploring themes of newer characters. Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 is set to receive great new skins, a new character, and many new team-ups, such as the Jeff-Nado.

Update the game on May 30, 2025, as this is when the new patch releases.
