Marvel Rivals is an action-packed game where you play as Marvel heroes and villains. The game has lots of characters to choose from, and more will be added over time. As you start playing, you might wonder:

1. Can I play with friends who use different systems?

2. Can I keep my progress if I switch platforms?

Here’s everything you need to know about playing with others and managing your game account.

Can You Play Marvel Rivals with Friends on Other Systems?

Yes! Marvel Rivals has crossplay. This means you can play with friends who use a different system than yours, like PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, or PC.

• Casual Modes: You can play together in modes like Quick Match or Custom Games.

• Competitive Mode: For ranked matches, you can only play against others using the same system. This keeps the matches fair for everyone.

Can You Keep Progress Across Platforms?

No, unfortunately Marvel Rivals doesn’t have cross-progression right now. This means if you start playing on one system, like Xbox, your progress won’t carry over to another system, like PC.

For example:

• If you unlock characters or skins on PlayStation, those won’t transfer to PC.

• If you switch systems, you’ll have to start the game from the beginning.

This might change in the future, but for now, choose the system you plan to stick with.

How to Link Your Account

Even though cross-progression isn’t available, you can link your account to other services like Twitch and Discord to get rewards and stay connected.

Linking to Twitch

1. Go to the Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops page.

2. Log in to your Twitch account.

3. Connect your account to Marvel Rivals.

4. Watch Twitch streams that say “Drops Enabled” to earn in-game rewards.

Linking to Discord

1. Open Marvel Rivals and find the “Community” menu.

2. Copy the invite code shown in the pop-up window.

3. Join the Marvel Rivals Discord server.

4. Use the invite code in the “In-Game Binding” channel to connect your account.

These steps can help you unlock rewards and join the game’s community.

Why This Matters

Crossplay makes Marvel Rivals more fun because you can play with anyone, no matter what system they use. But since there’s no cross-progression, be sure to pick the system where you want to keep your progress.

Even without cross-progression, Marvel Rivals has a lot to offer. With cool characters, exciting battles, and connections to Twitch and Discord, it’s a great game for fans of Marvel and hero shooters (aka Overwatch) alike.
