Marvel Rivals Rumored for Nintendo Switch 2

By CamilaMar 29,2025

Once considered a distant dream, the possibility of Marvel Rivals making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 is now becoming increasingly plausible. Although NetEase had previously dismissed the idea of a release on the original Switch due to technical limitations, the upcoming successor appears poised to overcome these barriers.

During the DICE Summit, producer Weikang Wu shared that active discussions are underway with Nintendo. The primary challenge lies in ensuring the game runs smoothly and consistently on the new hardware:

"The first-generation Switch simply didn’t have the power to deliver the gameplay experience we envisioned. But if the Switch 2 can handle it, we’re absolutely ready to bring the game to the platform."

Should a Switch 2 port come to fruition, it would likely necessitate a custom build tailored to the new hardware's capabilities.

With the Nintendo Switch 2 officially announced, major players in the gaming industry are showing their support. Phil Spencer has hinted at Xbox’s eagerness to bring its catalog to the new system, while Electronic Arts (EA) has also expressed its endorsement.

In the meantime, Marvel Rivals is gearing up for more exciting updates, with two members of the Fantastic Four set to join the fray and shake up the battlefield.
