Get Ready for Marvel Rivals Season 1: How to Access the Update Early (and What's New!)
The anticipation surrounding NetEase's Marvel Rivals and its upcoming Season 1 update is undeniable. Gamers are eager to jump in, and while many streamers already have early access, you can too!
The secret lies in the game's Creator Community. This program grants select players early access to updates and exclusive information. While it might seem exclusive, anyone can apply! Here's how:
