The iconic Phoenix joins the Marvel Rivals roster as a powerful Duelist. On this unique Mosaic (Space) Timeline, Phoenix and Jean Grey have fully embraced their combined power, journeying through the cosmos to aid those in need. However, the Timestream Entanglement has alerted the Phoenix to a terrifying darkness stirring at the universe’s edge. Sensing this encroaching corruption, Phoenix and Jean embark on a fiery mission to burn away this cosmic threat at its source.

  • Role: Duelist
  • Abilities: Original X-Men member Jean Grey wields immense psychic power, now amplified by the cosmic Phoenix Force. She traverses space as both a spark of creation and an inferno of destruction.
  • Team-Up: She forms a new Team-Up with Wolverine, “Primal Flame,” where she infuses him with the Phoenix Force, granting him lifesteal and burning nearby enemies upon using his Feral Leap.
