Marvel Rivalsis an upcoming online multiplayer video game from NetEase Games featuring iconic heroes and villains of the Marvel brand. The gaming community is accustomed to competitive gaming and the developers applied a similar structure that showcases the unique abilities of every character.
The exciting part of game development is that the developers can take from the source material and adapt it into something better to appeal to modern audiences. Early promos of the upcoming game did not shy away from the multiverse concept and are generating more hype for future stories and events.
Marvel Rivals Is Giving the Fans a Glimpse of What Is to Come in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
NetEase Gameshas worked on multiple online multiplayer games in the past and is more than qualified to deliver a satisfying superhero experience. The developers hosted a close beta testing for a handful of players and this experience shed some light on areas that needed more polishing likeoverpowered characters inMarvel Rivals.
There is no official release date for the full game which can buy the developers enough time to work on balancing and scaling. Another area that attracted the gaming community is the narrative based on the animated trailers that indicate two different versions, or variants, of Victor von Doom will come into play and start an incursion.

TheMarvel Cinematic Universehas been tackling the Multiverse since it was opened afterAvengers: Endgameand fleshed out inLoki. The idea of a connected multiverse to tether everything together is a smart move to unite the brand and allow creatives from different mediums to create their original stories through gaming giving them a head start.

Fans were impressed with the art style the developers used in the game. The gaming division also unveileda new logowhich will likely be featured in the introduction upon start-up.
Oh my god I thought they were teaming up but no Dooms ego is so fucking big that he went back in time to kill himself. Because he felt challenge by his original self that much bro I love this character so much.
The gaming community is curious about Doom’s motives and how it will rock the multiverse. Multiple variants interacting with one another will likely throw the multiverse out of balance and cascade into chaos.

The game industry is catching up with major Hollywood blockbusters and this project gave NetEase a headstart. There is no telling where the story will take the players, nevertheless, it is exhilarating to see multiple versions of one villain fighting for supremacy.
The premise ofMarvel Rivalsallows NetEase to continually release new skins, new versions, and variants of the same characters for months and years to come, and that, as with the MCU right now, plays right into the Multiverse premise too.
Fans will have to wait a few years before the films. The game will scratch the itch until then. but in what way do we see the multiverse shenanigans of the two franchises crossover? No one knows, not yet.
