Marvel Rivals teased Emma Frost a few hours ago with their Season 2 trailer. She was one of the highlights of the announcement video alongside Ultron. Based on the new hero release schedule, there will only be two hero releases per season. So, out of both the teased characters, when will we get Emma Frost? Will she be out right away, or will we have to wait for her until later in the season?

The White Queen will release in Marvel Rivals on April 11, 2025. However, the time of her release is still unknown. The official post and posters claim that Season 2 will arrive on April 11, UTC. This could mean that they are referring to the beginning of the date, at 12:00 AM. So far, the only confirmed thing is that Frost will arrive as soon as the Season 2 update arrives.

Players won’t have to wait until the Season 2.5 update to play her in any match! Though they will have to wait until the mentioned mid-season update to learn more about Ultron. This information was passed on to the fans straight from the official Marvel Rivals team through their Dev Vision Vol. 05.

All the suggested leaks so far have been correct. Turns out, Emma Frost will be a Vanguard. This means she will play the role of a frontliner in a team composition and tank all the damage. Considering her sheer size and ability kit, she seems like a formidable Vanguard. We have only gotten a glimpse of her abilities through the official character reveal trailer. So, we don’t have full information on what her abilities are going to be.

However, as per the trailer, we can say that she is meant to be an “anchor tank.” This means she will be similar to Vanguards like Doctor Strange and Magneto, primarily focusing on defending her team by staying in the front. She has 650 base health and a shield with 500 additional HP.

Moreover, her shield can be applied during the battle so she can continue fighting while it absorbs damage. Her alternate diamond form lets her switch to melee instead of ranged attacks to tackle divers and other enemies that fight up close.
