Marvel is Getting Into the Overwatch Business

I like new superhero video games as much as the next person. So of course I have some interest in the newly announced Marvel Rivals. Granted, I’m probably never going to play it, but there’s no harm in sharing this announcement trailer. It’s apparently Overwatch by watch of a bunch of Marvel characters.

I played Overwatch for a hot second when it first came out, just to try it out. I think it was a free demo? I dunno. The game did not hold my interest, so this Marvel Rivals thing will probably also not hold my interest. But a lot of people enjoy Overwatch, and I’m happy that they can now play a Marvel superheroes version.

There will be a closed alpha in May, so I don’t think the game is coming out anytime soon. Probably in 2025, like all other major games. That’s gonna be a big year!

    Seems like they lifted a lot of mechanics from overwatch, including the UI. Honestly I have no problem with it so long as they used the extra time to really perfect the game. Recycling is a habit devs can and should be into.
