Get Ready for Marvel Rivals Season 1: A Guide to Early Access and New Content
The excitement surrounding NetEase's Marvel Rivals and its upcoming Season 1 update is undeniable. Many players are eager to jump in early. While the initial Creator Community access window may have closed, here's how to potentially gain early access in future updates and what awaits in Season 1.
Securing Early Access Through the Creator Community
The buzz around Season 1's release, fueled by online reveals and streamer previews, has left many players wanting more. Early access was granted to the game's Creator Community. While this might seem exclusive, participation is open to application. The process involves:
- Navigating to the Creator Hub on the official Marvel Rivals website.
- Completing the application form.
- Awaiting NetEase Games' response.
Important Note: While the application doesn't explicitly request metrics like subscriber count, applicants should have an established online presence. New accounts created solely for early access may be less successful.
Season 1's Exciting New Features
Even without early access, the Season 1 launch on Friday, January 10th, promises a wealth of new content. This includes:
- Two new playable characters: Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, expanding the already impressive roster.
- Fresh maps and game modes to explore.
- A substantial Battle Pass offering 10 unlockable skins, featuring highlights like the Blood Berserker Wolverine and Bounty Hunter Rocket Raccoon costumes.
- Balance adjustments (buffs and nerfs) for existing characters. For detailed information on these changes, refer to The Escapist's comprehensive analysis.
Marvel Rivals is currently available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S. Stay tuned for future opportunities to participate in early access programs!
