NetEase has now confirmed Marvel Rivals is heading to PS5. In case you aren't aware, this is a multiplayer shooter featuring various Marvel heroes and villains, and you'll soon be able to play it on Sony's console.
You can see the game in action in the above trailer, which also confirms a few other things. Firstly, two new characters are unveiled here โ Venom and Adam Warlock. Additionally, Marvel Rivals is getting a closed beta test on PS5 in July, so it really won't be very long before you can take it for a spin.
The game has two teams of six going against each other in this PvP shooter. Players can choose whichever class and hero they want, and certain characters will have special team-up abilities, so there's some strategy there in figuring out your team's composition.
There's plenty more detail over on the PS Blog if you want to learn more about the game. If you're interested in playing the closed beta, sign-ups will open up on the game's website nearer the time.

Is there a way to register for the closed beta?
This game looks totally uninteresting. If I were going to play an online PVP game, I think I'd choose Concord over this, assuming Concord is better than Overwatch, which is admittedly a low bar to clear.
Didn't know there was a strong desire to play Overwatch without having to play Overwatch ๐ also it's weird Sony showed their game Concord and in the same State of Play showed a direct competitor in Marvel Rivals.
Where are we supposed to get all these infinite hours that these companies think we have to play all these Live service games? Btw we still have two live service games coming from Bungie and then there's Fairgame$ so apparently we have all the time in the world!
Destructible environments are a nice touch, but otherwise I am not interested in this!
I think this looks dope as hell, to be honest. But then, I've been waiting for some more Marvel-wide games since UA3.
I could not play it because of the voice lines alone. What do the kids say these days? So cringe.
Looks like a new Marvel Ultimate Alliance game without calling it Marvel Ultimate Alliance.
@Serpenterror nope cause this is pvp.
We need another ultimate alliance. Marvel heroes was good f2p.... sadly it was shut down because of ceo being awful.
@MFTWrecks Did you play Marvel's Midnight Suns? If not you should check it out.
@The_Wailing_Doom sounds like you just donโt like pvp multiplayer games. The destruction mechanics were very interesting.
@Shad361
Indeed. No appeal.
@Bentleyma No. I don't enjoy turn-based titles in the slightest.
@stridernyc
Nice to see a fellow ATCQ fan in the wild.
Glad this is coming to ps5!!
One of the few Marvel games I won't play. They could have done so much more, but alas. Hope it turns out good for those interested in it.
Let me guess.u need to buy the game in order to play the beta
@MFTWrecksis it turned based though .I don't think.it is
No Cyclops No Interest. I'll gladly take an X-men open world gacha like Genshin or even turn based like HSR. I'm surprised they're not doing that instead of an Overwatch clone.
Was the gameplay captured from mobile? Why is everyone moving so stiffly?
