Once considered an impossibility, the idea of Marvel Rivals making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 now appears increasingly feasible. NetEase had previously dismissed the possibility of a release on the original Switch due to technical limitations, but the upcoming successor might just change the game—literally.
During the DICE Summit, producer Weikang Wu shared that discussions with Nintendo are actively underway. The primary challenge? Ensuring the game runs smoothly and consistently on the new hardware:
"The first-generation Switch simply didn’t have the power to deliver the gameplay experience we envisioned. But if the Switch 2 can handle it, we’re absolutely ready to bring the game to the platform."

Earlier, game director Thaddeus Sasser had clarified that there were no immediate plans for a mobile version or an original Switch release. Should a Switch 2 port come to fruition, it would likely necessitate a custom build tailored to the new hardware's capabilities.
With the Nintendo Switch 2 officially announced, industry giants are already showing their support for the platform. Phil Spencer has hinted at Xbox’s interest in bringing its catalog to the system, and Electronic Arts (EA) has also expressed its backing.
Meanwhile, Marvel Rivals is set for further expansion, with two members of the Fantastic Four expected to make a significant impact on the battlefield in upcoming updates.
