Does Marvel Rivals have crossplay? Marvel and NetEase have assembled a knockout cast of the multiverse’s mightiest heroes and villains for you to do battle with. However, the big question remains: can you actually play together on different platforms?
Additionally, if you’ve been hoping to play Marvel Rivals on both your PC and consoles, then the ability to carry your progress between the two is equally important. After all, you don’t want to restart your multiplayer game grind all over again, nor do you want to have to repurchase all of those lovely cosmetics you may have already accrued. For all you need to know about both Marvel Rivals cross-progression and crossplay, read on.
Does Marvel Rivals have crossplay?
Yes, Marvel Rivals supports full crossplay between PC and console, albeit only for non-competitive modes. Ranked crossplay is only available between PC and Mac, and PlayStation and Xbox respectively.
Marvel Rivals crossplay between PC and console is available in the following modes:
- Quick Match
- Conquest
- Custom Game (non-competitive)
- Practice vs. AI
The keyboard and mouse vs. controller debate has raged on ad infinitum, as concerns over aim assist and platform-specific cheats ruining competitive integrity have gradually transformed the gaming landscape – especially for competitive shooters.
For example, Riot Games’ tactical FPS Valorant doesn’t support any form of crossplay between PC and its recently released console version. However, NetEase’s approach to Rivals provides a fair compromise that ensures players across the gaming realm can queue together in a way that doesn’t negatively affect your chance to climb the ranks.
Does Marvel Rivals have cross-progression?
No, Marvel Rivals does not have cross-progression, and any progress you make on one platform will not carry over to another. There has been no confirmation from NetEase that cross-progression will be implemented.
This is, of course, disappointing. Cross-progression is an important feature, and we hope that NetEase will eventually bring it to Rivals. Keep an eye on this guide over the coming weeks, as we might see a change when Marvel Rivals Season 1 rolls around.
And that’s everything you need to know about Marvel Rivals crossplay and cross-progression. We are stuck with PS5, PC and Xbox for now as there is no Marvel Rivals mobile or Switch release date.
Now you’ve got the info you need, read up on the Marvel Rivals characters, pick your poison from the Marvel Rivals tier list, and see if their are are new Marvel Rival codes to grab.
