NetEase's Marvel Rivals is generating immense excitement ahead of its Season 1 update. Many players are eager to gain early access. While the initial Creator Community application window for Season 1 may have closed, here's how to potentially participate in future early access opportunities:

The buzz surrounding Marvel Rivals' Season 1 is undeniable, fueled by constant updates from the developers across their social media platforms. Many streamers have already experienced the update, leaving some players feeling left behind. However, there's a path to early access for aspiring content creators.

Early access is granted through the game's Creator Community. While participation might seem exclusive, anyone can apply. The process involves these steps:

1. Visit the Creator Hub on the official Marvel Rivals website.
2. Locate the application form at the bottom of the page and complete it thoroughly.
3. Await a response from NetEase Games.

It's crucial to note that while the application doesn't explicitly request metrics like subscriber counts, applicants should demonstrate genuine engagement and a history of content creation. New accounts created solely for early access may not be successful.

What Awaits in Marvel Rivals Season 1?

Even without early access, the Season 1 update launching January 10th promises significant additions. Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman join the character roster, alongside new maps, game modes, and a substantial Battle Pass offering 10 unlockable skins, including the Blood Berserker Wolverine and Bounty Hunter Rocket Raccoon costumes. Existing characters will also receive balance adjustments (buffs and nerfs). For a detailed breakdown of these changes, consult The Escapist's comprehensive analysis.

Marvel Rivals is currently available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
