Marvel Rivals Season 4 – Release Date, Daredevil Rumors, and What’s Next

Daredevil in Marvel Comics

Season 4 of Marvel Rivals is expected to launch on September 12, 2025 — though the date isn’t officially confirmed, it matches the game’s new content cadence: a new hero every four weeks and a new season every eight.

Who’s Joining the Roster?

The community’s favorite theory? Daredevil. There’s no official word on the Man Without Fear, but clues from both lore and past datamines have players convinced his arrival is inevitable.

The Daredevil Connection

Dataminers have previously uncovered files suggesting Daredevil is on the roadmap for Marvel Rivals. Although these leaks don’t reveal an exact season, they keep players hopeful. According to ongoing discussions in the community, the lore from Season 3.5 strongly hints at his appearance.

After Blade defeated Hela, now dubbed the “Queen in Black,” the story described her fleeing to the Eighth City — likely the mystical land of K’un Lun. There, she encounters a figure named Dizang, portrayed in the artwork as a shadowy figure with glowing eyes and devil-like horns.

What caught fans’ attention was Dizang’s dialogue, filled with religious undertones: phrases like “cast out of heaven” and “amends for my sins” directly resonate with Daredevil’s Catholic faith and inner struggles. The lore even mentions Dizang being able to hear Hela’s heartbeat, which feels like a direct nod to Daredevil’s enhanced senses.

However, it’s worth noting that lore teases don’t always translate to immediate releases. For example, Blade played a major role in the game’s narrative back in Season 1 but didn’t become a playable character until Season 3.5. So, even if Daredevil is Dizang, his playable debut might not happen immediately.

Release Timing

Season 4 is expected to kick off on September 12 at 2:00 AM PT, coinciding with the end of the “Ancient Powers Awaken” event. Here’s the likely global rollout:

Time Zone	Launch Time
PT	2:00 AM, Sept 12
CT	4:00 AM, Sept 12
ET	5:00 AM, Sept 12
BST	9:00 AM, Sept 12
AEST	7:00 PM, Sept 12

Players can expect a short server downtime before the update goes live.

Beyond the New Hero

Each season brings more than just a roster update. Look for:

• A new battle pass

• Additional maps

• New Team-ups

• Some Nerfs and Buffs

• More narrative-driven lore to push the overarching story forward

There’s also speculation that Angela — Thor and Loki’s sister in Marvel Comics — might appear, potentially as a counter to Hela and to deepen the game’s Asgardian ties.

If Dizang is indeed Daredevil, some believe he may first appear as an antagonist before redemption brings him into his iconic form in a future season.
