In some of my earlier stories, I’ve chatted about all sorts of Marvel stuff. You can find those linked at the end of this post. Today, though, I want to talk about this cool new game coming out called Marvel Rivals. It’s basically like Overwatch but with all your favorite Marvel heroes!

Marvel and NetEase Games are teaming up to bring us Marvel Rivals, a new multiplayer hero shooter featuring the iconic superheroes and supervillains from the Marvel Universe.

This game is all about intense team-based action, as two teams of six heroes battle it out on diverse maps inspired by locations like Asgard and Tokyo 2099.

The developers behind Marvel Rivals are no strangers to the gaming world, with experience from major franchises like Call of Duty and Battlefield.

If you’re a fan of Overwatch, you’ll feel right at home with Marvel Rivals’ free-to-play model and ever-expanding roster of heroes and villains. What sets this game apart is its third-person perspective, giving you a fresh way to experience the Marvel Universe.
