Emma Frost Release Date Revealed for Marvel Rivals Season 2

Fans of the team-based shooter Marvel Rivals have reason to celebrate as Emma Frost, a powerhouse telepath from the X-Men universe, is officially joining the roster. Once known as the White Queen and recognized for her complex history switching allegiances, Frost now aligns with the heroes and arrives as a highly anticipated addition by the game’s community.

Emma Frost Release Date and Abilities

Emma Frost is set to make her debut in Marvel Rivals on April 11, marking the launch of the game’s season two. Story-wise, she enters the scene as a member of Krakoa’s Quiet Council, hosting the Hellfire Gala just as Ultron makes an unexpected appearance.

Classified as a Vanguard, Frost brings a dynamic mix of offensive and defensive capabilities. Her primary attack unleashes a continuous psychic damage beam. For defense, she can project a protective shield. A core mechanic is her ability to transform into her iconic diamond form, drastically increasing her defense and enabling potent melee attacks like punches, kicks, and even a chokeslam followed by a powerful kick. Her ultimate ability allows her to psychically draw enemies towards her while inflicting significant damage, offering strategic displacement possibilities.

Emma Frost’s X-Revolution Costume

Alongside her default appearance, Emma Frost will launch with an alternative cosmetic: the X-Revolution costume. This design is directly inspired by its debut in the comic book Uncanny X-Men (2013) #1.

This alternate look will be available immediately upon her release with season two. While official pricing details are pending, it’s expected to be a premium skin. Based on previous releases like Sue Storm’s Malice skin, the cost might be around 1,400 units individually, or potentially offered in a bundle with related cosmetics for approximately 1,600 units.

As with previous character additions in Marvel Rivals, Emma Frost will be unlocked free for all players when season two begins. No purchase or challenge completion is necessary to access her.

Emma Frost isn’t alone in receiving new attire; season two will also feature several Hellfire Gala-themed outfits for other popular characters in the game.
