The first season of Marvel Rivals may have started, but it's brought an end to mods that let players be third-party characters.

Give the hype surrounding the game, it seemed somewhat likely that Marvel Rivals would beat its launch concurrent playercount. It did, and then some.

Fun’s over: The latest update to Marvel Rivals has killed support for PC mods that change the looks of its heroes, like turning Iron Man into Vegeta or Mantis into a goth.

NetEase has clamped down on Marvel Rivals skin modding in the game's latest seasonal update, so no more playing as Iron Man cosplaying Vegeta.

Marvel Rivals has just launched season 1, the game barreling forward with a colossal amount of momentum over the past month as it has broken past the “you can’t make a successful hero shooter” narrative and has created a phenomenon.

We already knew that Marvel Rivals has proven incredibly popular since its launch last month - 10 million players joined online at launch - but now it's smashed another milestone, topping 600K concurrent players this weekend on Steam.

Marvel Rivals' Steam player count has surged to an all-time high of over 570,000 as of writing as fans flood the hero shooter for its Season 1 launch.

Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman are joining the roster at the start of the season, alongside a new convoy map and battle pass.

Marvel Rivals' latest update for Season 1 has seemingly introduced a feature that means custom skin mods will no longer work in the game.

Eternal Night Falls begins today. The newest season brings a slew of new content to the popular hero shooter from Marvel and NetEase Games. This includes a new Battle Pass that brings several cosmetics to the game.

Marvel Rivals’ new season begins tomorrow, January 10, and there’s plenty to be excited about. Four new heroes are joining the roster, three maps are entering the rotation, and there’s a new battle pass of cosmetics.
