Devil Dinosaur is poised to join Marvel Rivals in Season 8 as the first of two expected roster additions over roughly the next 2 months, with Cyclops also widely tipped.
An early teaser points to the giant red T-Rex arriving soon, even though the character is far less familiar to many players than Cyclops.
In Marvel lore, Devil Dinosaur debuted in Dinosaur World, later partnered with Moon-Boy and then Moon Girl, whose mind-switching link could influence the hero's in-game kit.
His comic abilities center on superhuman strength, high intelligence, heat resistance, near-bulletproof durability and occasional size changes, though Marvel Rivals has not yet detailed how those powers will translate.

How will Devil Dinosaur's colossal size fundamentally break existing team strategies?

With constant hero reworks, is the game aiming for true balance or a constantly shifting meta?

Is the new comic and RPG a sign that game lore is now as important as gameplay?
