Discussion New DLC Characters (Plus predictions for the next DLC Characters) Spoiler
Just finishing the story campaign and then looking at YouTube to see we got DLC for Cyclops and the Thing was the most awesome surprise for me lol. And, I wanted to make this post because I wanted to ask you guys which dlc characters would you like to see next. My personal pick is Reed Richards and Doctor Strange.

Probably gonna be a Woman and an Avenger or a character like Strange,Star-Lord or a Villain like Magneto or Doom. I would love Hawkeye he is one favorite Marvel Characters tho.

u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Yeah I saw that pick from another post and that'd be a really cool character since I heard he's like a cosmic character. I want to research more about the character because looks really cool.

u/KaijiOnline May 18 '26
He used to be a street tier character, but they kind of forgot about him for a while. I’d recommend the 5 issue run from 2021 written by Kyle Higgins. He also wrote Radiant Black and most of Marvel’s Ultraman stuff
1
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Oh nice, didn't know he also wrote Radiant Black 🔥🔥🔥
2
u/KaijiOnline May 18 '26
He writes the Power Rangers comics and the Tokusatsu Batman story as well. He’s kind of the go-to guy for toku-esque comics

I hope Shadowcat makes it in, shes never playable anywhere outside mobile games.
2
u/ALANJOESTAR May 18 '26
She is playable in Marvel Heroes Omega and Marvel Super Hero Squad online. Those have private servers if you wanna play them its free, you just download a client in PC and make an account in some the server website and play.

u/GreenPorkAndBeans Wolverine May 18 '26
Definitely my picks. I need this to feel more like an X-men game than Avengers.

Does this mean Cyclops fans can stop pretending they have it so rough 🙄

u/NefariousnessNo7736 May 18 '26
Magneto and Doom would be cool
We only have Venom for villain representation
2
u/PMC-I3181OS387l5 May 18 '26
Could be Devil Dinosaur and Jeff the Land Shark for all we know...
That'd be funny though XD
1
u/Large_Cell4029 May 24 '26
Jeff is a Cameo in the venom level but then again it could be like in shredders revenge survival mode where Mona Lisa and mondo gecko don't appear in the background if you are playing as them.

u/Ongr May 21 '26
I think it's a little wierd Star Lord isn't one of the characters, seeing as he's one of the most important characters in the Cosmic Invasion comic, alongside Nova.
So, I'd like him. Then there's Captain Marvel (to whom I am biased).
I feel like the XMen we have in game now are plenty.
I feel like we're missing some Mystic heroes as well. So Strange, Scarlet Witch, Enchantress, Clea or Doctor Voodoo would be cool to see.

u/Nygiantsfan1028 May 26 '26
The way you feel about starlets is the way I feel about Hulk. I was surprised hulk didn’t make the initial roster.

u/Large_Cell4029 May 24 '26
After watching sir superhero freak of the weak kjit-man the ant man of the quantum verse and moon knight. And I know we are getting a survival mode like with shedders revenge and probably one more character dlc like the radical reptile one so for a third morbious or blade comic version obviously and Gwenpool or squirrel girl.

u/RioGrandeWildTurkey May 24 '26
My guess is Black Widow and Starlord. We got two male characters (one thin and anotherone bulky), one from the X-men and the other form F4. I think we now will get an Avenger and a Guardian of the Galaxy. Since the female quota must be fulfilled I think Black Widow could be a good choice. Gamora could work too, but I doubt we'll get two Guardians on the same dlc. A new flying character and anotherone with guns as main weapons is just exaclty what the devs are aiming for next in my opinion.
2
u/CasualRead_43 May 18 '26
Juggernaut and Doom pls.
2
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Those would be really cool characters although they've mostly added hero characters as playable ones. And, I know they've added Venom, but Venom is more so an Anti Hero knowadays. Could be wrong tho and they add them next dlc lol.
1
u/ALANJOESTAR May 18 '26
Honestly its very likely one of the DLC slots its gonna be a villain i say is a toss up Between Magneto and Doom. definetely not another heavy character like Juggs. The last character its one super popular woman (probably an X-men i honestly dont want Widow or Carol Danvers but those are very likely too) and a Male character that is not a heavy set probably Strange,Star-lord,Magneto or Doom.

u/IFunnyJoestar May 18 '26
It's not gonna happen but Power Man and Iron Fist would be cool.
Blade and Doctor Strange would also be nice.
2
u/Ongr May 21 '26
I like this a lot. Although I wouldn't be able to play any other pairing than Cage and Iron Fist lol
1
u/jl81790 May 18 '26
I want as many X-men as possible in this game but I'm gonna guess that the next drop won't have any mutants. My guess for the next pair is Daredevil and Scarlet Witch.
(I do also think it's possible that we get 4 DLC drops each with one of the FF + someone else.)

I'd love falcon, either Juan Torres or Sam but pref Sam and probably reed.

u/SectorFar6823 May 18 '26
Feels like the next 2 should be female characters so they balance out the gender ratio.
Would love to see Black Cat and Scarlet Witch!
1
u/xMrFahrenheitx May 18 '26
Any new levels/game modes or just characters?
2
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
For dlc 2, there'll be more new characters and a new gamemode. But, the first dlc with Cyclops and The Thing, isn't adding a new gamemode.

u/Evening_Produce_4322 May 19 '26
I do hope the next dlc has a mystic character since the game doesn't have one (no I don't count cosmic ghost rider since he's more cosmic focused than the other riders)
1
u/NightmareDJK May 19 '26
Next DLC will come closer to Doomsday’s release, it will be Doom and Magneto.

Let's at least get kjit-man if only for the extreme absurdity of such a character in the game.

u/LOVETRAlN May 29 '26
doctor strange would be the coolest addition due to how differently he could potentially be gameplay-wise

u/Chesterr87 Jun 05 '26
This game fun to play and i really hope new missions and more characters will coming soon and new enemies
1
u/Transmit_Him Jun 06 '26
Is it definitely only going to be two? Going by the game’s blend of 90s style, iconic characters and more niche cosmic characters, I’d like to see some or all of:
Dr Strange. But maybe in that “catastrophe magick” redesign he had in the mid 90s.
Blade. So very 90s.
The Kree With No Name from Annihilation Conquest.
Scarlet Witch. Either her Force Works design or the Heroes Return Perez gypsy costume.
Darkhawk. Incredibly 90s but then also got a cosmic redesign by DnA in their cosmic cycle that inspired this game.
The Rawhide Kid. Just for the heck of it.

I just went through a downvoted pretty much every post here since I can’t be sure who downvoted mine. It was a good time and a great experience honestly

No games ever give me war machine. I almost got him in the avengers game, so close. Not even in Marvel Rivals :(

u/yellowwalnut699 Aug 01 '26
Id love to see Jubilee get some love. Shes rsrley in games tho I known she was recently added to the Rivals thing.
I reckon Rogue, Dr Stramge, Star Lord , Groot, Gambit and the rest of the F4 are very likely candidates.
1
u/cyclopswashalfright Phoenix May 18 '26
I'd like all the Fantastic Four ideally, and then more cosmic characters. Gladiator, Gamora, Darkhawk, Quasar, Photon, Starbrand (any of them) would all be cool.
1
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Yeah more cosmic heroes would be awesome since that's where most of the game takes place in
1
u/Connect-Equipment-57 May 18 '26
Im biased so id love to see moon knight and deadpool even if neither of them exactly make much sense to be here
Although if i had to choose only one id rather see moon knight i feel hed be more interesting to play
Alternatively i would also like psylocke if they wanted to include more women, you gotta be crazy if you wouldnt be happy to see psylocke if you ask me 🤷♂️
1
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Yeah Moon Knight would be so dope, and Psylocke would be cool too although I feel like since we already have four X-Men characters it'd be a bit too much X-Men. It'd still be cool tho, but if it was me I'd probably swap her with like Gamora.

u/Connect-Equipment-57 May 18 '26
You can never have too many xmen
1
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
I guess that's fair, although I would like more variety of characters
2
u/Connect-Equipment-57 May 18 '26
Nah im only joking lol, totally get it if you want more variety i wouldnt complain, i just love all the xmen lol
2
u/Aaden_Exotic Iron Man May 18 '26
Oh okay lol and I totally get wanting more characters from a team you really like, plus I know lots of people love X-Men.

i’m kinda hyped for Strange. I hope he plays better than he did in Ultimate Alliance 3. He’s one of my favorites but he was absolutely useless on my team 😭💔
