Marvel Rivals has been making waves since its announcement, with hype reaching critical levels during the first closed alpha test in May. The excitement is expected to skyrocket, though, when the closed beta test starts, fueled by a bigger player base and the arrival of console players.
The team at NetEase has promised that the closed beta for Marvel Rivals will have five times the player base as the closed alpha across PC and console, with servers expanding to Europe and Asia as well. Both new and returning players will have a new map and new heroes to test out as well.
