Marvel Rivals Season 4 Trailer Debuts Angela as New Asgardian Hero

September 3, 2025 (GameBeat News) - Today, NetEase and Marvel unveiled the first official trailer for Marvel Rivals Season 4, introducing Angela, the Asgardian angel warrior and long-lost daughter of Odin and Freyja, alongside Daredevil. The announcement confirms previous leaks and offers a first look at Angela’s character design, abilities, and her pivotal role in the upcoming “Heart of Heaven” season.

The trailer opens with a dramatic confrontation in the celestial realm known as the Heart of Heaven, where Angela-clad in a golden armored suit with expansive wings and a sharp headdress-demands justice from Hela for past betrayals. Viewers witnessed Angela unleashing a combination of melee and ranged attacks, tossing a spear-like weapon and unleashing powerful winged strikes that underscore her strength and durability on the battlefield.

According to the esports outlet Sports Illustrated, Angela is expected to serve as a Vanguard (tank) hero, excelling at frontlining engagements with both flight capabilities and heavy-hitting melee prowess. Analysts speculate she will fulfill a role similar to other tank characters, absorbing damage and controlling space for her team.

Forbes provided early promotional artwork today, spotlighting Angela in a commanding pose. The piece showcases her golden sword and ornate headdress, emphasizing her royal Asgardian heritage and angelic origin. Promotional materials also hint at a possible in-game synergy with Thor and Loki, highlighting her familial ties within the Marvel canon.

Destructoid’s coverage notes that Angela will launch at the start of Season 4 on September 12, with Daredevil arriving mid-season. Leaked lore suggests the season’s narrative will explore the aftermath of the Timestream Entanglement, pitting angelic forces against demonic variants in a battle for the Heart of Heaven.

Marvel Rivals Season 4, titled “Heart of the Dragon,” is set to begin on September 12 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC platforms. Players can expect a sizable update featuring new heroes, balance changes, and an expanded storyline that weaves Angela’s arrival into the broader Marvel multiverse.
