The highly anticipated superhero shooter Marvel Rivals is set to launch on PC and consoles on December 6, 2024, bringing a new wave of action-packed gameplay to fans of the Marvel universe. As excitement builds for the release, the minimum and recommended PC system requirements have been revealed, giving players a clear understanding of what their systems need to run Marvel Rivals.
Marvel Rivals was first announced earlier this year through a collaboration between NetEase Games and Marvel, introducing a 6v6 superhero shooter featuring a diverse lineup of characters, each with unique abilities. While the game will be free-to-play, players can choose to purchase cosmetic items. With at least 28 characters confirmed for the Marvel Rivals launch, the developer has been busy in the lead-up to the release, consistently revealing new details such as maps and gameplay footage to keep the community engaged and excited for the game's debut.
Marvel Rivals is Successfully Avoiding One of Marvel’s Avengers’ Biggest Mistakes
Marvel's Avengers made plenty of mistakes in its relatively short lifespan, and Marvel Rivals looks as though it's already avoiding one the biggest.
NetEase has now revealed another important piece of information for Marvel Rivals fans on PC, unveiling both the minimum and recommended system requirements. The minimum specifications required to run the game include Windows 10 64-bit as the operating system, with an Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X processor. The game will also require 16 GB of RAM and either an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, AMD RX 580, or Intel Arc A380 graphics card. DirectX 12 is required, along with a broadband internet connection and 70 GB of available storage space. NetEase recommends installing the game on an SSD for a better experience.

For players aiming for a smoother experience, the recommended system requirements for Marvel Rivals are slightly more powerful. This includes an Intel Core i5-10400 or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor, paired with a more advanced graphics card, such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Super, AMD RX 5700-XT, or Intel Arc A750. However, the operating system, RAM, DirectX version, storage, and SSD recommendation remain the same as the minimum requirements to run the upcoming free-to-play Marvel Rivals.
It is worth noting that Marvel Rivals recently unveiled a new map called Charteris Base: Hell's Heaven, set in an Antarctic Hydra facility. In addition, Marvel Rivals has been engaging fans with a poll to determine which classic comic book characters they would like to see as playable heroes in the upcoming title. While it's still too early to gauge the game's success at launch, it’s clear that the developers are putting in significant effort to make it a major release.
