Who Luna Snow Is In Marvel Rivals

screenrant.com:

For the most part, players are likely familiar with the game’s heroes, but there is one notable exception: Luna Snow. In a game populated by some of the biggest name characters in pop culture like Wolverine, Spider-Man, and Iron Man, some players have been left scratching their heads over prominent healer Luna Snow. Even the game’s other obscure heroes, like Jeff the Land Shark and the breakout star Squirrel Girl, have appeared in far more Marvel Comics than Luna.

One possible reason why Luna Snow isn’t as well known as other heroes is her unique origins. Unlike most Marvel heroes, Luna was not originally created for the comics, or even a show or movie in the MCU. It’s not too surprising many are left wondering who she is when she has yet to pop up in any major Marvel projects.

Luna Snow’s healing powers seem so well-suited for a video game like because she was created for a different video game. During the development of the mobile game, developer Netmarble wanted a character who was an “ice magician who could both heal and deal damage”, according to one of Luna Snow’s creators, Bill Rosemann, in an interview with ComicBook.com. Because Marvel didn’t necessarily have a character that fit the bill, Roseman along with Danny Koo and Min-Kyun Kim created Luna Snow to fill the role.

Marvel Rivals is already making waves in the hero shooter scene, with this minor change giving the game a huge advantage over the competition.

As a South Korean developer, the Netmarble team wanted to create a hero that showed off their culture and that their fans would connect with. This inspired Luna Snow’s alternate identity, Seol Hee, a K-pop idol. While Luna Snow would later appear in several Marvel Comics series and join several teams like the Agents of Atlas, she has yet to star in her own ongoing series. However, Luna does have a unique side project that sets her apart from other Marvel heroes.

In an effort to promote her character, Marvel has released five songs attributed to Luna
