The Fantastic Four are almost fully assembled in one of this winter's hottest games! Next Friday's major update to Marvel Rivals brings The Thing and Human Torch into the fray.

A ranked checkpoint arrives in just 10 days, rewarding players who've battled in ranked matches. Gold rank and above unlocks exclusive skins, while Grandmaster rank players and beyond earn a prestigious Crest of Honor.

However, a partial rank reset is planned – a four-division demotion for all players. This decision has drawn criticism, as many players resent losing progress mid-season. The grind of ranked mode isn't for everyone, and this reset could deter less dedicated players.

Developers have acknowledged the concerns and are open to future adjustments. If player feedback is strongly negative, they've indicated a willingness to reconsider this rank reset mechanic.
