- According to new leaks, Angela could be the launch character for Marvel Rivals Season 4.

- The leaks have also suggested that Angela could have a flying ability, and a melee weapon akin to a Bow or a Spear.
Marvel Rivals’ constantly expanding roster is all set to welcome new Heroes in Season 4, with leaks indicating that Angela could headline the upcoming update. Now, this isn’t exactly what fans were hoping to hear since a previous leak confirmed the arrival of both Deadpool and Daredevil. But the Asgardian does have some interesting superpowers and plenty of cool lore to get excited about. With this in mind, here’s everything we know so far about Angela in Marvel Rivals, including her expected release date, leaked abilities, and more.
Marvel Rivals Angela: Expected Release Date
According to leaked information, Angela will be released along with the Marvel Rivals Season 4 update, which will likely drop on September 12, 2025.
The character’s inclusion was strongly hinted at in a Knull storyline Gallery Card, which stated that one of Hela’s “own kin would come to deliver justice” for her role in the Symbiote disaster. On top of this, leaked voicelines see the likes of Loki and Doctor Strange making references to Angela or conversing with her directly. Then there’s the fact that Angela recently joined a different Netease game in Marvel Mystic Mayhem, which only bolsters the rumors of her arrival.
In case you’re wondering what she’s all about, Angela is the firstborn child of Odin and Freyja. She was denied a lavish Asgardian upbringing after being kidnapped by Angels during the Heaven War. One of those Angels showed kindness to the character and raised her, eventually naming her ‘Angela’ to signify that she’s part of the guild.
Over time, Angela developed strong connections with her siblings, including Hela, Thor, and Loki. She has also embarked on multiple space-faring adventures with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Based on everything we know so far, Angela’s Marvel Rivals iteration could be more vengeful, and she could be hell-bent on serving up justice to Hela.
Marvel Rivals Angela: Leaked Abilities and Role
According to leaks, Angela will have some sort of temporary flying mechanic, and she’ll also wield a melee weapon akin to a Bow or a Spear. This certainly isn’t a ton to go off on, but based on the character’s superpowers, we can safely speculate on what her in-game abilities could look like.
For starters, Angela will likely be a Vanguard in Marvel Rivals. This is because the devs are unlikely to double up on Duelists after Blade, and her powers sync up well with those of a Vanguard. In the comics, Angela is blessed with superhuman strength, flying capabilities, and health regeneration. We already know her flight will be carried over to Marvel Rivals, and if her strength follows, then she’s prime Vanguard material.
Our Vanguard theory is also bolstered by the fact that she’s a Tank in Marvel Mystic Mayhem, so there’s a solid chance that Netease opt to steer in the same direction for Angela’s Rivals’ appearance.
Angela could hover over battlefields with a Phoenix-like temporary flight mechanic and use her lore-accurate strength and health regen to absorb damage on the frontlines. As for her weapon, the character is known to use Ichors, which could take the shape of any bladed weapon, so a Spear is certainly plausible. In action, it could have uses in close-quarters and long-range combat, adding some flexibility to the character’s kit.
Keep in mind that this is pure speculation for the time being, but we should hear more about the character pretty soon.
And that wraps up our guide on Angela in Marvel Rivals. We’ll be updating this article as soon as new official or leaked information arrives, so be sure to revisit. Until then, let us know if you’re excited for Season 4 in the comments.
