Despite some industry speculation about the potential decline of Marvel Rivals, the multiplayer shooter is not only holding steady but thriving.

The announcement has elicited mixed reactions from the fanbase. Many are celebrating the continued success of Marvel Rivals, while others have raised concerns about the recent layoffs of the U.S.-based support team. Some players have suggested rehiring the key creators who played a significant role in the game's popularity, while others have humorously speculated about the possibility of further layoffs despite the game's growing success.
These layoffs were attributed to the need for "development efficiency optimization," sparking speculation that NetEase may shift focus towards their Chinese development teams. Despite these concerns, the future of Marvel Rivals appears promising. Fans can look forward to a wealth of new content, including the introduction of beloved characters such as Human Torch, Thing, and Blade. The first two characters are scheduled to join the game this Friday, February 21st.
