NetEase has confirmed that the next Marvel Rivals hero is Black Cat. While the details about the character are scarce, the game developer revealed her in a trailer for Season 7. The new season introduced White Fox, a new Strategist, with Black Cat arriving in a mid-season update.

Interestingly, Season 7 will be shorter than the previous Marvel Rivals seasons, and that is why the release date of Black Cat is a bit sooner than usual. NetEase has revealed when the next hero will come to the game, and as expected, it’s in mid-April.

When will Black Cat come to Marvel Rivals?

The release date of Black Cat in Marvel Rivals is set for Friday, April 17. NetEase confirmed this with a trailer, as well as a Season 7 roadmap, which was released shortly after White Fox’s debut in the game. In the meantime, the developer will release lots of new content, including a new event with a free skin.

At the moment, Black Cat’s role and abilities are unknown. However, taking into account that White Fox is a Strategist and that the upcoming hero doesn’t look big, there is a good chance that Felicia Hardy will be another Duelist.

The major mid-season update will likely add a new map as well, another event, and Black Cat’s ranked skin. On top of this, we expect NetEase to release even more buffs and nerfs, which will further balance the game. As we approach Season 7.5, the Marvel Rivals developer should release more details about the character, including a full breakdown of her abilities.

While waiting for a new hero, players can easily unlock free cosmetics through Marvel Rivals codes. It is also possible to get several free Marvel Rivals skins in the new season.
