Nelson Peltz, an investor interested in winning some board seats at Disney, recently called Kevin Feige’s ability to run the MCU into question. These comments come after the recent box office disappointment of The Marvels , and a largely disappointing 2023 for Marvel Studios and its parent company Disney. While there are some concerns that can be raised about the current state of the MCU, it is also worth noting that these statements come from an ally of the controversial ex-Marvel executive, Ike Perlmutt
While it’s clear that the MCU is having issues, it seems unfair to put full responsibility on Feige . There is no way Feige could have predicted the Majors situation, and The Marvels wasn’t able to be promoted properly due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes that took place in 2023. Though The Marvels could’ve been delayed, it would’ve necessitated pushing back the entire MCU slate. It’s also worth considering that the issues Peltz identified with Marvel don’t hold up to scrutiny. Both Black Panther movies were huge box office successes for Marvel, as was the original Captain Marvel . The MCU ‘s issues are more complicated than who stars in what movie, and are the result of more than Feige’s decisi
Marvel Rivals has plenty of exciting features you wouldn’t know much about unless you tinkered with the game for a while. For instance, have you noticed all the sprays ? What are sprays, anyway? They’re nowhere in the tutorial. Still, you can complete missions by tagging buildings with them. Plus, there are dozens of sprays featured in Rivals’s menus. Seriously, what gi
While I am fully aware that more general players will be diving into the online battles to see iconic Marvel characters fighting and won’t be as focused on Marvel Rivals ‘ storyline, I am glad that the game does have a story and that Marvel and NetEase Games have opted to put Dr. Doom so prominently within it. Dr. Doom is an extremely popular villain in the comics – and potentially an ally should the heroes’ goals align with his own or benefit him in some way – but he has not been fairly portrayed in some of the more mainstream media.
While **Marvel’s Spider-Man seems to have greater web swinging than Marvel Rivals ** so far, especially with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 giving players the option to make this more physics-based by turning off the swing assist, there is one area that Marvel Rivals seems to be doing better than Insomniac. In the interior levels of the Marvel’s Spider-Man games, Peter and Miles are usually encouraged to use Recommended Web page zip to get around – or web lines in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 – but climbing from walls to the ceiling has always felt a bit clunkier compared to the rest of the characters’ movem
Sprays are a fun tool for making your presence known in Marvel Rivals, but the game doesn’t tell you much about how to use them. Fortunately, tagging a surface with a spray is straightforward. First, you’ll equip sprays for your Hero . Then, all you need to do is follow the keyboard/controller prompts below to get spray
One of the most anticipated characters is Spider-Man, with the web-slinger already proving to be extremely popular in gaming, most recently in Insomniac Games’ Marvel’s Spider-Man series. Of course, the gameplay in Insomniac’s games is different from that of Marvel Rivals , as the superhero has an entire open-world city to swing around in a single-player experience, instead of Marvel Rivals ‘ multiplayer arena-type levels. That’s not to say that the heroes don’t share similar traits, as both games have kept faithful to the source material in their depictions of their powers, with Spider-Man being able to crawl on walls, fire webs, and swing around in both . Of course, that’s not to say there aren’t mechanics that each title could pull from the ot
Did you know there are over fifty available sprays in Marvel Rivals? Maybe it’s not a multiverse worth, but 50 is still a lot! However, most of these sprays have specific conditions you must meet to unlock t
A great game in its own right, Insomniac’s Spider-Man franchise is especially great for anybody who has a deep love for Spider-Man. Very few adaptations have captured the essence of Spidey the way that Insomniac has, and combining that with gameplay that’s quite good is an achievem
The environment work is absolutely stellar here, doing a great job of truly taking you across the cosmos by making each world and place feel truly unique. It’s a game that would be new to a lot of people who missed it, and it’s well worth the t
With developer NetEase Games granting players access to **Marvel Rivals ** ‘ closed alpha on May 9, players have had a better look at the role-based multiplayer title, and have been able to analyze each hero’s gameplay in depth based on clips that have been shared online. As is to be expected within any fandom, this footage has sparked debates regarding how they compare to past appearances of the characters in titles such as Marvel’s Avengers or Marvel’s Spider-Man , or even specific seasons of Fortni
