Needs more black playable characters

[xeviouse]

No i'm not here to farm points or ragebait this game seriously lacks black people.
Like all we get is one fully suited black guy who you can't see and another one who's barely visible, I want a big black characters who stands out like luke cage or blade.

I want characters like Blade in the game because they're cool characters, not because they're black. He could be japanese, mexician or whatever, and he's still be cool because he's a freaking vampire hunter with a sword and a gun.

Wish people would stop putting so much focus on immutable characteristics like race and skin color but I know that's never gonna happen. Sad.

I want characters like Blade in the game because they're cool and black.

I do not like that Rival's version of Blade has cornrows, though.

They'll probably have a Westley Snipes Blade as a skin in this game since he appeared in Dead Pool x Wolverine.

nah

I just had a random thought - we're getting Blade (it's almost a foregone conclusion), are we going to get Dracula? It's not exactly a Marvel character but he exists in their universe.

That's totally a plausible thing that might really go in the game. I'm curious if they can make Morbius not suck.

I bet Dracula and Blade will have some fun voicelines in the spawns too.

[Arairal]

Not really. Imaging needing a homosexual latino character every two releases to feel seen and enjoy a game.

While representation is important, Marvel Rivals already includes Storm, a major and highly recognizable Black hero. The game is still in its early stages with a growing roster, so it's likely that more diverse characters—including fan favorites like Luke Cage or Blade—will be added over time.

Additionally, dismissing existing Black characters because of their visibility (like a fully suited hero) doesn’t change the fact that they are still part of the game. What matters more is how well these characters are represented, their impact in the game, and the variety of playstyles they bring.

If the concern is about wanting more standout Black heroes with unique designs, it would be more productive to advocate for specific additions rather than implying the game has none. Given Marvel’s vast roster, it’s reasonable to expect more diverse characters in future updates.
