Marvel Rivals Developers Confirm Cross-Progression Is in Development
The popular hero shooter launched with cross-play but still lacks cross-progression, which developers say may take time to implement.
- Marvel Rivals, a free-to-play hero shooter, launched earlier this month with cross-play but without cross-progression between platforms.
- Developers at NetEase Games confirmed that cross-progression is under active development but did not provide a specific release timeline.
- Cross-progression implementation is complicated by platform-specific rules, such as Sony's revenue-sharing requirements for cross-platform content.
- The game's current account system supports linking to Twitch for rewards but does not yet enable unified progression across platforms.
- Marvel Rivals' first major update, including a Splatoon-inspired mode and new skins, is set to launch on December 20, with Season 1 content arriving in mid-January.
