They can pick their favorite role and hero to team up with allies, creating a strong and adaptable group for battle. Additionally, players can enhance teamwork with Team-Up Abilities, allowing them to unleash combined superpowers with their allies and dominate the battlefield in exciting fights.
Marvel Rivals Now Live with Season 0
Marvel Games and NetEase Games have released Season 0 of Marvel Rivals. In this shooter game, players can create a team of "Super Heroes" and "Super Villains," each with their own unique abilities. They will battle on destructible maps from the Marvel Multiverse.
This first month of Marvel Rivals features 33 heroes, eight maps for Quick Match and Competitive modes, a Conquest map, and a new Practice Range. The opening season, called "Dooms' Rise," introduces the chaos caused by Doctor Doom's time experiments, resulting in a mix-up known as the Timestream Entanglement.
Further, Marvel Rivals is excited to announce a Twitch Drops event for Season 0 to celebrate its global launch. Players can earn drop rewards by watching their favorite streamers throughout the season. By engaging with the community, they will receive exclusive in-game items just by tuning in.
