The success of Overwatch will definitely have given ideas to some, including Marvel: here is Marvel Rivals, a brand new video game which therefore takes the form of a competitive multiplayer title, mixing shooting and melee action . A very first trailer is also available: here's what you need to know.
Fight time
A watered-down artistic direction, competitive multiplayer, shooting and characters with their own skills… This is reminiscent of a certain Overwatch series, one of Activision's leading figures, and which seems to have clearly inspired other entertainment giants: Marvel and NetEase! The American titan and the other Chinese have therefore formalized a brand new project called Marvel Rivals, a third-person shooter which will enjoy offering 6 vs 6 matches with a five-star cast.
Marvel obliges, the title will rely on a particularly attractive roster, which also gives it considerable marketing power. Here are the playable characters concerned, nineteen in number:
Doctor StrangeScarlet WitchIron ManLuna SnowPunisherLokiRocketGrootHulkSpider-ManMagnetoMantisPeni ParkerMagikStormNamorStar LordBlack PantherThor
A game designed to last
Developed by NetEase, Marvel Rivals will offer ultra-dynamic combat within destructible environments where each character can use their own superpowers, which we can also temporarily combine with those of the other players on our team. If part of the combat will be done at a distance – this is a real TPS – However, we can activate certain special abilities, sometimes in close combat, to give a different boost to the clashes.
Obviously, there is something to think big and Marvel Games confirms that the title is planned to last a long time with numerous updates, bringing new characters, new maps and many new events over the seasons.
Important information to say the least: Marvel Rivals is currently only announced for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, but no home console was mentioned. Windows players will therefore be able to tackle this superheroic fight through a closed alpha which will arrive in May. In any case, we will redirect you to the first trailer, available in our video player at the start of the article!
