Curious if Marvel Rivals supports crossplay or cross-progression between PS5, Xbox, and PC? Here’s the information you need.

Marvel Rivals is a multiplayer arena shooter that lets players take control of iconic Marvel heroes and villains, from Avengers to X-Men, in epic battles for dominance. But can you face off against opponents using different platforms?

Additionally, if you start playing on one system and later switch to another, will your progress carry over with your account, or is it restricted to the platform you originally chose? We’ve broken down the answers to these questions below.

Does Marvel Rivals have crossplay?

Yes, Marvel Rivals allows you to play with users on different platforms, but only in Casual Mode.

For instance, if you’re on a PS5, your server can include players using Xbox Series X|S or PC. This makes it possible to team up with friends even if you’re on different systems.

However, in Competitive Mode, the game is platform-restricted, meaning you’ll only compete with players using the same system as you.

When setting up custom games with friends, cross-platform play is fully supported. Keep in mind, though, that these Quick Matches won’t impact your competitive rankings.

Does Marvel Rivals have cross-progression?

No, Marvel Rivals does not currently support cross-progression, meaning your progress is tied to the platform you play on.

If you decide to download the game on a different system, you’ll need to start fresh with a new account.

However, during an interview with DotEsports, Marvel Rivals creative director Guangyun “Guangguang” Chen revealed that cross-progression is in development.

Chen explained: “Cross-progression involves a lot of platform-specific rules. We’re still exploring how to address these challenges.”

“Once the team has a solution and we’re ready to implement it, players will be the first to know.”
