Recently, via YouTube , **Marvel Rivals has released a content roadmap, revealing what players can expect from the full release on December 6 ** , and there is a lot to enjoy. There are eight maps for both Quick Match and Competitive play, a new Practice Range, a Conquest Map, and thirty-three characters at launch. The closed beta began with an impressive twenty-one characters, with Thor and Jeff the Land Shark being added during the beta to bring the roster to twenty-three characters total, and even this was a big collection of characters for a hero shoo

For context, Overwatch 1 launched with twenty-one characters and was reasonably well-balanced at launch. This balance went out the window as more characters were added, leading to the infamous GOATS comp . GOATS comp omitted DPS, running three supports and tanks, becoming so dominant in competitive play that the DPS role became useless. Overwatch then added role queue to try to fix this, but by then, the balance of the game had been irreversibly damaged because of its still growing ros

**Marvel Rivals will be completely free-to-play ** for anyone who wants access to it. It was also announced at Gamescom that every hero on release and in the future can be unlocked for free by playing the game. As of now, there is no official news on microtransactions in Marvel Rivals Walkthrough Rivals . However, based on the genre and free-to-play status, there is a likely chance of paid battle passes and cosmetics to help fund the g

As long as Marvel Rivals receives continual updates from NetEase games, it will largely avoid the issues of Team Fortress 2 , since a lot of its balancing issues can be attributed to negligence from Valve. It also has the budget and creativity behind it to eclipse many other free-to-play hero shooters by default , such as Paladins and Pixel Gun 3D , along with one of the biggest IPs in the world to maintain interest. If the game is as fun as the playtest suggests, Marvel Rivals will kick off, but maintaining popularity will be the hard p

Located on the east coast of Africa, this fictional country serves as home to the city of Hammer Bay, where many X-Men were once held prisoners by the Genoshan magistrate .

Transporting an explosive to detonate within his core could act as the goal here, too, with Ego growing increasingly angry with each checkpoint a player capture, demanding players to stop and switching up the environment around t

The glaring detail that was missing was the accept button. If you reached Gold or above in the Closed Beta Test, you'll have seen that queues could get pretty long. The accept button is the easiest solution to most early game AFKers, as it prevents people from joining a game unless they're at their PC or console saying "I'm ready to go". It should be a simple addit

With Marvel Rivals soon to enter a similar space in the gaming landscape, I got to chat with the game's director, Guangyun Chen, at this year's Tokyo Game Show . During our conversation, we spoke about everything, from the Marvel IP to the comparisons to Conc

Chen once again confirmed that NetEase games has full access to Marvel's vast library of characters, including those in the comics, the MCU, and past video games, and he feels this alone is enough to attract players. "We want to show is our specialty. We have the Marvel IP. We are under the Marvel storyline. We have over 85 years of Marvel history, and we have countless heroes and maps," he s

The inclusion of Atlantis would likely involve the city rising out of the water for our heroes to battle upon, or otherwise it may be a bit harder to play on for some of the non-aquatic members of Rivals ’ c
