Gaymers are thirsting for these new Marvel Rivals characters

Since releasing in December, Marvel Rivals has given gaymers lots to love. Not only can they become their favorite Marvel superheroes, but they can enjoy plenty of eye candy in the process. The game’s designs for playable characters like Doctor Strange, Starlord, Namor — and even Venom, for the freakier among us — have been praised for painting the comic characters in a very flattering light.

Now, the game is introducing four new characters to the mix, and they have Marvel Rivals fans more excited than ever.

In a new trailer, Marvel Rivals revealed that the Fantastic Four are coming to the game in its next update. That includes Invisible Woman, The Thing, Mister Fantastic, and Human Torch. It’s the latter two characters that are piquing the gays’ interests, and based on their designs, its clear to see why.

Mister Fantastic, aka Reed Richards, is a fan favorite for being, as one fan put it, “a dilf in a skin tight suit who can reshape any part of his body.” His design has fan-artist’s minds running wild, with skimpy redesigns of his suit going viral.

Meanwhile, Human Torch has fans excited over his potential relationships with other in-game characters. He’s a popular hero to ship with Spider-Man, so folks can’t wait to see them interact in-game. But Spider-Man is also frequently shipped with Iron Fist, another of the game’s playable characters, meaning a love triangle could be on the horizon. Or maybe they could form a throuple! No matter what, we’re absolutely seated.

Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman will become playable characters on January 10, while Human Torch and The Thing will be added to the game at an unannounced later date. Check out the trailer for the next update below.
