After the success of the alpha, the Marvel Rivals closed beta is underway. If you’re still looking for access, we have the details on how to get involved and its duration.
It still doesn’t feel real that we’re getting a fully-fledged superhero multiplayer shooter, but here we are. Marvel Rivals is being helmed by NetEase and the developer has assembled Scarlet Witch, Groot, Hulk, Spider-Man, and many more of your favorite MCU stars into one complete shooter.
The closed alpha was a success and gave a great representation of what the final product should look like. The stakes are being raised with the Marvel Rivals closed beta which upped the player count, revealed a heap of extra polish added, and much more.
When was the Marvel Rivals closed beta release date?
The Marvel Rivals closed beta began on July 23 and will run until Aug. 3, providing fans with a much longer period to enjoy the game compared to the initial alpha test.
The biggest difference from the alpha is its availability. While the alpha was only for PC users, the closed beta is opening up to PlayStation 5 and Xbox users, though the fact it is a closed beta means there’s still an element of luck needed to gain access.
