You mean like... Thanos Dr Strange Medusa Spiderwoman Black Bolt Mordo Riri Coulson Wasp None are variants and all were released within last 6 months. I think what you mean to say is "When can we have more mutants?!" The answer is probably never as Chutulu has stated the rights for these characters don't belong to marvel and negotiating their use is tricky which is why we don't get them anymore after Marvel and Fox's standoff

Other than Thanos and Dr. Strange where any of them that highly requested?

Other than Thanos and Dr. Strange where any of them that highly requested? Someone voted for Medusa, spider-woman and Riri in that poll, or is everyone gonna pretend they didn't? As for the rest they've all been requested at some point by quite a few people. Oddly I don't remember many people requesting Thanos but nobody is complaining he wasn't highly requested. Like I said the ones which are 'highly requested' tend to be ones which they devs can't introduce due to the aforementioned reason. EDIT: Ok maybe mordo wasn't lol

This did not used to be an issue until Fox refused to relinquish F4 a few years ago when marvel asked for it back and instead chose to make more tinykitty movies just to retain it and hold the characters to ransom. Marvel then decided to not support any Fox licensed characters and started cancelling their comics and withdrawing all support for them elsewhere too. As for why other games do it and this one doesn't? I have no idea beyond perhaps this game doesn't have the finances to pay Fox anymore.

The answer is probably never as Chutulu has stated the rights for these characters don't belong to marvel and negotiating their use is tricky which is why we don't get them anymore after Marvel and Fox's standoff This comes up over and over throughout the forum (as well as elsewhere) - people want more mutants/X-men; other people rebuff them with the above statement in one form or another (i.e., no mutants because Marvel vs. Fox). BUT, that latter point isn't exactly true because there are numerous recent examples of Marvel-licensed games, and even Marvel themselves, actively releasing new X-men content that would not be the case if "negotiating their use is tricky which is why we don't get them anymore after Marvel and Fox's standoff." For example:Marvel Heroes 2016 is currently having an Old Man Logan event. Last month, they introduced Jubilee into the game. Marvel Contest of Champions released Cable in January. Marvel Comics is currently heavily promoting the launches of their new X-men Blue and X-men Gold titles (as well as their agonizingly named ResureXion event) which features most of the mutants people want As such, I don't feel the answer is as black-and-white as "can't use." (Maybe it's just a matter of a little more effort/interest?) Both here and elsewhere, I feel that people should continue to voice their desire for some more X-men/mutants because it clearly can happen, it just hasn't happened here at MPQ in a long while. If Brigby or another red name wants to respond with better clarification on what it would take to get more X-men into the game, I'm all for it... having some more X-men in the game would clearly drive up sales. As for new Hawkeyes... I'm very much in the "meh" camp. I love the character (I basically got introduced to him way back when, when he spun out the West Coast Avengers and led them), but was perfectly fine with him being only a 1* and 2* character. But, if MPQ wants to bring in more variants of him, I guess I'll try him out.

But we do not have any current estimated date of exactly when. I can say this Hawkeye is really fun, and the 3-Star I'm about to add is also a fun character.

My best guess is that those games spent a lot more money up front and acquired the (long term) rights to all the characters long before the falling out between Marvel and Fox.
