The executive producer on superhero outing Marvel Rivals has revealed there’s no limits to what characters they can include in the roster, although there’s a few stipulations when it comes to selecting them.
Speaking with VG247 Danny Too said that developer NetEase Games had a whopping 9,000 characters to choose from, but noted that there’s “a lot of considerations to make about who should be part of the roster.” He did, however, make it clear no one is off limits.
No character is off limits, we have to pick the ones who are fun to look at, different, fun to play, whatever reason that is, they have to bring something good to the overall roster. “The narrative designers on the team are avid Marvel fans and they’ll bring suggestions out of the blue. Our discussion is about how this character is similar to these other characters and we talk about each one and pick the strongest one together.
