I completely expected Thor to appear at some point as a playable hero regardless of the leaks, simply because Loki is already in the game, and the God of Thunder has been used in so much current Marvel media due to his increase in popularity with mainstream audiences over the years - most likely due to his portrayal by Chris Hemsworth in the Marvel Cinematic Universe - that his omission would feel jarring. The character I was more excited to see, however, was Dr. Doom . Doom was announced in the press release that accompanied Marvel Rivals ' first trailer, and it was clear he would play a major part in the story, but this is the first we have seen of the character and his future variant.

After the screening, there was a drone show celebrating the movie's release and teasing some of the Fantastic Four reveals that would be coming up in Saturday's main Marvel Studios panel. With not only his costume on display on the main convention floor but also his head projected high above the center by hundreds of drones, it's safe to say Wolverine was a pretty notable part of this year's event.
