Marvel Rivals Season 5 is launching on Friday, November 14, 2025, and anticipation is at its peak. NetEase confirmed the arrival of two legendary X-Men — Rogue and Gambit — as new playable heroes. Alongside them come themed events, updates to existing maps, and balance adjustments designed to keep the gameplay fresh and competitive.
Rogue, also known as Anna Marie, is one of the most iconic figures in the X-Men universe. Her power to absorb the skills, memories, and abilities of others through physical contact makes her one of the most unpredictable and versatile heroes in combat.
“Her signature ability allows her to absorb the powers, memories, and even the physical strength of others through touch.”
In the comics, Rogue has temporarily taken on the abilities of numerous Marvel characters, including flight and super strength, traits originally gained from Ms. Marvel. Her deep and complex relationship with Gambit adds emotional depth to their arrival in the same game season.
Fans have been speculating about these characters since early leaks and dataminer hints circulated online. The official trailer’s release confirmed those predictions, sparking massive community excitement. Players eagerly await mastering Rogue’s new mechanics and testing her synergy with Gambit in battles against dominant heroes like Angela.
Season 5 of Marvel Rivals promises thrilling gameplay with Rogue and Gambit joining the roster, adding depth, tension, and strategy to the evolving meta.
