In order to keep players permanently in Marvel Rivals, which is currently so successful, the creators regularly promise new playable heroes. The director has now become specific about this!
Marvel Rivals was an absolute hit at release and is attracting players in droves. To ensure that it stays that way over the long term, the developers at NetEase want to regularly add new content to the hero shooter, especially in the form of new playable heroes. Game director Guangyun Chen promises a pretty brisk rhythm in this regard.
An interview also discussed NetEase's plans for integrating new Marvel heroes and characters. Chen went on to say that such content is built around the game's seasonal model. Such a season lasts three months in Marvel Rivals, but is divided into two halves. In each such time window there should be a new playable hero for gamers.
Translated, this means: Every half-season aka every six weeks you can play a new character in Marvel Rivals, and every full season two new heroes come together.
Each season will also feature a general improvement in the gaming experience, so regular work will be done on this front as well. In addition to the new heroes, there are also seasonal storylines and new maps to discover.
Last but not least, Chen thanked the community for the feedback on individual heroes and assured that this will be incorporated into the development studio's decision-making process. This feedback should also determine when which specific heroes will be released. The aim is to ensure that everyone in the community feels listened to and is happy.
