Marvel Rivals will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X, with full crossplay . However, Competitive mode will separate PC and console players. There won’t be versions for PS4, Xbox One, or Switch.

The game follows a 6v6 Hero Shooter format, with 25 Marvel characters available at launch, including Spider-Man, Iron Man, Loki, Storm, and Star-Lord.
