Rejoice, console gamers. Marvel Rivals will be playable for you, too, and sooner than you may think.
The five-vs-five hero shooter featuring Marvel characters and locations is now confirmed to be coming to consoles after an announcement at the May 30 State of Play hosted by Sony. But the trailer also confirmed Venom and Adam Warlock as playable heroes for the first time.
Venom looks like he will be a Vanguard character as he was shown in the gameplay footage with 700 HP, while Adam Warlock looks like he showed off a revive ability, teasing that he may be a Strategist in the upcoming hero shooter team-up title.
As part of the assumed partnership with NetEase and Sony, PlayStation gamers will be able to unlock an exclusive Spider-Man skin, Scarlet Spider, and will also be able to take part in the game’s upcoming closed beta after a successful closed alpha test earlier this month on PC.
The closed beta kicks off in July on PS5, and presumably PC as well. Other consoles were not mentioned at the time of the showcase.
