Marvel Rivals has generated a good bit of buzz over the months, and at Gamescom, we lastly additionally acquired a launch date announcement for it, with NetEase Video games confirming that the free-to-play shooter might be launching in December. However although the sport is about to launch for PC and current-gen consoles, it doesn’t appear like NetEase has further platforms in thoughts for it simply but.
That’s as per sport director Thaddeus Sasser, who revealed to Pocket Techniques at Gamescom that presently “there are not any discussions” occurring at NetEase about releasing the sport for cellular units or for the Nintendo Change.
That doesn’t essentially come as an enormous shock. One would assume {that a} cellular launch of Marvel Rivals would require a separate and devoted construct of the sport for iOS and Android platforms, much like what different console multiplayer video games have finished when leaping to cellular.
As for the Change, with the console now within the final legs of its life (and its {hardware} lagging behind current-gen consoles’ capabilities considerably), it might possible make way more sense for NetEase to as an alternative eye a launch for Nintendo’s upcoming next-gen console. Presumably, that’s one thing that the corporate will suppose extra about later down the road.
For now, Marvel Rivals is about for a December 6 launch on PS5, Xbox Sequence X/S, and PC.
