When fan art featuring a certain teleporting, blue-furred acrobat popped up on Reddit last year, Marvel Rivals fans hopped on the idea. The idea of Nightcrawler bamfing across the map was perfection. But the latest leaks have thrown us a curveball—one that’s powerful, iconic, and not quite what fans expected.
According to two Marvel Rivals leak accounts, it seems the next X-Men member joining the roster could be none other than Professor Charles Xavier himself. The founder of the X-Men, a man with unmatched telepathic abilities, and an absolute icon in the Marvel Universe… but, let’s be honest, not the name we were all guessing. While Wolverine and Storm were obvious choices to launch the X-Men presence in the game, the rumored addition of Xavier feels out of left field—but it’s one I’m fully here for.
