Summary
AMarvel Rivalsfan has spotted the addition of Hawkeye to the roster during Moon Knight’s gameplay reveal video.Marvel Rivalsis set to release in December, but new details continue to emerge about the game, including this possible glimpse at Hawkeye.
WhileMarvel Rivalshasn’t yet been released, some players have been able to try it early in the beta testing phase. During the beta, gamers could play as Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Thor, and more. Similar to other hero shooters,Marvel Rivalsis expected to get post-launch content, including cosmetics that players can equip. Among these expected additions may be more maps, heroes, and villains from the Marvel universe, some of which may have only appeared in the comics thus far. During Moon Knight’s recent reveal, some players believe they have spotted Hawkeye, a hero that hasn’t been announced yet.
Reddit user Noblu8 recently shared a screenshot of IGN’sMarvel RivalsMoon Knight revealgameplay. This screenshot shows a small image of Hawkeye in the game’s kill feed after he’s seemingly defeated by the Winter Soldier. The kill feed is similar to the one inOverwatch 2, which indicates which character defeated another, with account names alongside their images. According to the kill feed, the Winter Soldier who killed Hawkeye is defeated by a punch from the Incredible Hulk. While it’s hard to distinguish which specific HawkeyeMarvel Rivalsfeatures based on this screenshot, the small image strongly resembles the bow-wielding hero.
Marvel Rivals' Moon Knight Reveal May Have Spoiled the Next Character
Although it may have been an accident to include Hawkeye in the Moon Knight’s gameplay footage, one detail may indicate that it was intentional. The account name belonging to Hawkeye in the Moon Knight gameplay was used for Moon KnightduringMarvel Rivals' Psylocke showcase. This could suggest thatMarvel Rivalsis including future heroes and villains in their reveals for eagle-eyed fans to discover. The subsequent speculation could draw more attention to the game ahead of its release, which could boost interest in it. Hawkeye has increased in popularity over the years with the character’s presence in theAvengersmovies and his Disney Plus series.
While this Moon Knight gameplay is official, Hawkeye’s additiontoMarvel Rivals' rostershould be taken with a grain of salt. New characters are typically tested before they’re released, so it may be a while before Hawkeye is added to the game despite his inclusion. Because the game hasn’t been released yet, changes could occur between now and December 6.
