While developing Doctor Strange's portal ability, the creators of Marvel Rivals faced significant performance-related challenges, which were still evident even after the game's release.

At the GDC 2025 conference, the senior graphic designer shared that he drew inspiration from the technical implementation of It Takes Two. He noted that the game "simultaneously renders two images without any loss in performance".

The team found a solution by "enabling a local function to create a local player". Zhang explained that adding a local player "automatically activates split-screen rendering using distant cameras".

It was recently revealed that with the launch of the second season, the game will introduce new abilities and rework some of the old ones. The content for the second season is ready and awaiting release. As for the third and fourth seasons, their designs have already been finalized, and they are currently in active development. According to leaks, the second season is scheduled to begin on April 11, 2025.

Marvel Rivals is a fast-paced team-based shooter where players can take control of their favorite heroes and villains from the Marvel universe in an exciting multiplayer mode. The game offers unique abilities for each character, allowing players to create strategic combinations and engage in epic battles. The developers paid special attention to the visual design and combat mechanics to capture the atmosphere of the comics and movies.
