Marvel Rivals is coming to consoles, and there’s a closed beta in July
The beta will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam
Marvel Rivals has been confirmed for consoles, alongside the news that a closed beta is coming this summer.
The game’s second testing phase will take place in July on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam.
Announced for PC in March, Marvel Rivals is a free-to-play 6v6 team-based shooter which is played from a third-person perspective.
Players can choose from a selection of Marvel super heroes and super villains from the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men and more.
It’s being developed by a new internal team at NetEase Games, which said it’s “composed of global talent who previously worked on hit franchises such as Call of Duty and Battlefield”.
The team behind Marvel Rivals recently apologised for seeking to restrict negative coverage of the game from content creators.
In order to participate in its content creator program, players were required to sign an agreement which included a “non-disparagement” clause that forbade them from providing “subjective negative reviews of the game”.

Following a backlash from content creators, developer NetEase said it would revise the terms, which it acknowledged were overly restrictive.
Marvel’s Midnight Suns will reportedly be free on the Epic Games Store next week.
