In honor of the debut of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Scopely has revealed the new event for Marvel Strike Force, the Fantastic Force Showcase, set to commence on July 21, 2025.

As enthusiasts gear up for the launch of The Fantastic Four: First Steps on July 25, Marvel Strike Force is initiating a four-week Fantastic Force Showcase starting July 21. The showcase promises an abundance of content, including completing various challenges for rewards and recruiting Mister Fantastic (MCU) and Invisible Woman (MCU) from the forthcoming movie. Alongside fresh content, The Thing and The Human Torch will undergo enhancements to ensure they fit well with their fellow members of the Fantastic Four.

For those who may not be aware, Marvel Strike Force is a turn-based RPG created and published by Scopely. With Earth at risk, players assemble a team of superheroes and villains to engage in 5v5 battles, protecting their home from dangers. In addition to combat, players can unlock costumes, enhance their teams, complete challenges, and expand their roster using character shards.

To commence the Fantastic Force Showcase, six missions will be made available each week throughout the four-week period. The prerequisites for each week are as follows:

• Week 1: Fantastic Four (MCU) or Hero Character.
• Week 2: Fantastic Four (MCU) or City Character.
• Week 3: Fantastic Four (MCU) or Global Character.
• Week 4: Fantastic Four (MCU) or Cosmic Character.

For players seeking a tougher challenge in MARVEL Strike Force, demonstrate your skills by accumulating rewards as you climb the Fantastic Four’s base and face a unique final boss during the Baxter Building Tower event. Beginning on July 24, Fantastic Four characters are essential for conquering both towers, like Tower 1 at level 25+ and Tower 2 at level 85+.

Joining the many line-ups to aid Nick Fury with a specific S.T.R.I.K.E. mission, Mister Fantastic (MCU) and Invisible Woman (MCU) have made their entrance. After activating their Special or Ultimate Ability, Mister Fantastic can employ the Barriers on himself and all allies, teaming up with other Fantastic Four (MCU) members. Meanwhile, Invisible Woman will strike the most wounded enemy for Piercing Damage before becoming Stealthy.

As excitement builds for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, The Thing and The Human Torch will be revamped with the fresh MCU costumes from the upcoming film. In addition to the new attire, both characters will receive updates to prepare for facing a new wave of contemporary adversaries.
