Marvel Fans Uncover Hidden Easter Egg in Rival

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Wong Spotted, Fueling Speculation

The upcoming Season 1 of Marvel Rivals, launching January 10th, has ignited excitement among players, particularly due to a potential Easter egg hinting at a future character addition. The season, titled "Eternal Night," features Dracula as the main antagonist and will introduce the Fantastic Four (including their villainous counterparts, the Maker and Malice as alternate skins).

A recent trailer for the new Sanctum Sanctorum map showcases a brief glimpse of a painting depicting Wong, Doctor Strange's mystical ally. This subtle detail, highlighted by Reddit user fugo_hate, has fueled speculation among players on r/marvelrivals about Wong's potential inclusion as a playable character. The game, already a success with over 10 million players in its first 72 hours, continues to generate anticipation for new content.

Wong's Potential in Marvel Rivals

Wong's popularity has soared in recent years, largely due to Benedict Wong's compelling portrayal in the MCU. While previously featured in games like Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (non-playable) and Marvel Contest of Champions, his potential addition to Marvel Rivals is intriguing. His magic-based abilities could offer a unique and exciting gameplay experience.

However, the painting could simply be a tribute to a key ally within the Sanctum Sanctorum's rich tapestry of Marvel supernatural references. Regardless, Season 1 promises thrilling gameplay with three new locations, a new Doom Match mode, and the arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman. The mystery of Wong's potential role remains, adding another layer of anticipation to the highly anticipated launch.
