Marvel Rivals Season 6 is almost upon us and it is one of the most hyped seasons of the game yet, thanks to the inclusion of the merc with a mouth, Deadpool.
Yes, Deadpool is the main new character in Marvel Rivals Season 6, alongside another new addition mid-way through the season. Here is when it launches and what you can expect from the season.
‘Marvel Rivals’ Season 6 release date
Marvel Rivals Season 6 begins on January 16, 2026, around one month after the mid-season update for Season 5. It’s safe to say Deadpool is the biggest character to come to the game in the last few seasons and has been hyped for quite a while. This should make Season 6 one of the biggest seasons for the game since Summer 2025.

Deadpool will launch alongside the new season on January 16, 2026. His class hasn’t been confirmed yet with rumours suggesting he will either by a Duelist, or Strategist. We should know more about Deadpool the week before he launches.
Mid-way through the season, at some point in mid February, the second character will be added. This is Elsa Bloodstone, a much more obscure Marvel character. She is the daughter of Ulysses Bloodstone and was introduced in the marvel comics almost 25 years ago.
She uses a variety of weapons and equipment, suggesting she is most likely to be a duelist and focus on a wide and varied kit that makes use of a collection of weapons and grenades. She will be fully unveiled sometime in February.
