NetEase Games has revealed a new Duelist character for Marvel Rivals — Wolverine, the iconic mutant replete with his signature adamantium claws. He boasts an aggressive melee-driven playstyle, as showcased in an all-new trailer. Given he is one of the most popular Marvel heroes, fans will undoubtedly want to try him out first before taking him into battle.
Let’s check out Wolverine in Marvel Rivals, including all the abilities he brings to the table. Here are the details.

Marvel Rivals Wolverine gameplay explored
As should be obvious from the lore of this hero, Wolverine attacks using melee strikes only. Each strike fills up a gauge at the center of the screen, channeling his berserker power. His secondary fire allows him to dash at the target and deal a bunch of strikes. One of his abilities causes him to lunge at the target and then retaliate with a flurry of claws.
Another ability allows him to shrug off incoming attacks, including Ultimates (though they still damage him), and move in for the attack. His own Ultimate is called Berserker Rage, which empowers him, causing him to leap upwards and strike at a location while dealing damage to everything in his path. All in all, there is no doubt that Wolverine will be an unstoppable force on the battlefield.
