What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X, 16 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 / AMD RX 580 / Intel Arc A380. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 70GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Marvel Rivals launched on 6 December 2024, within three weeks of Delta Force, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and Caves of Qud. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 4 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Delta Force, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Caves of Qud.
