Today, NetEase surprised the gaming world with the reveal of a multiplayer shooter similar to Overwatch but instead of heroes he takes the characters from the Marvel universe. The expectation immediately went through the roof, and fans were quick to notice some details, including that of a female character who they immediately associated with the villain Galactus.
Who is Galacta and why did he surprise in the trailer of Marvel Rivals?
The first advance of Marvel Rivals caught the attention of some fans who considered it a female version of Galactusthe world-devouring villain who is part of the story of The Fantastic Four and Siver Surfer. However, it is not about that, but about Galactain reality She is the daughter of this powerful enemy and now he is part of the multiplayer shooter thanks to powers similar to those of his father, which anticipates a combat and defense style based on energy management.
What is the origin of Galacta?
According to Marvel records, Galacta first appeared in issue #2 of Marvel Assistant-Sized Spectacular. She is the daughter of Galactus, although she was not always called that because in her childhood she was known as Gali. Although she has not seen her father face to face, Gali learned very young of her origin and therefore of her powers, specifically her hunger to devour worlds.
However, as a child and later teenager who hid on Earth-616, Gali assimilated the lifestyle of the people and decided not to do evil. Hence the rejection of the figure of her father and she decided to change her name to Galacta.

To deal with her reality and not allow her father’s strength and the source of his evil to consume her, Galacta has found other ways to satisfy her hunger for energy. He has achieved this by helping people and the entire world by killing and devouring alien agents that threaten the Earth. However, this does not prevent her from being overcome from time to time by the essence that comes from Galactus’ power and entering into periods of confusion that, at some point, could lead her down another path.
Although it is a character rarely seen in Marvel comics and stories, Galacta’s reality could soon change and perhaps its appearance in Marvel Rivals be the beginning of it.
