Marvel Rivals Jeff and Thor: New heroes added to Closed Beta Test
radiotimes.comAfter initially appearing in a leak, Jeff the Landshark and Thor are the latest new heroes being added to the Marvel Rivals closed beta test.
They were revealed in a new cinematic trailer that also revealed the presence of not one, but two Dooms.

Marvel Rivals is adding Jeff the Landshark and Thor, with them arriving in the beta on Saturday 27th July.
The announcement came after they were both revealed at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con. Attendees were given adorable Jeff fans.
They will join an already packed character roster that looks only set to grow if leaks are to be believed.
