It's called hot and even with the news of Grandpa Nin's new game console, the Nintendo Switch 2. Although its launch wasn't a big hit or created much of a stir in the gaming industry, it was enough to make fans say in unison, "Buy it!!" without thinking. Another game that has been trending since before its launch, and when it was launched, the positive feedback shot up like a rocket: Marvel Rivals. When a popular game and a popular console come together, the question arises: Will the Nintendo Switch 2 be able to play Marvel Rivals? Many people have wanted to know for a long time, until the development team of Marvel Rivals secretly told us that they are currently negotiating with Grandpa Nin about bringing Marvel Rivals to the Nintendo Switch 2.
This story comes from an interview with Marvel Rivals producer Weicong Wu with IGN held at the DICE Summit 2025 in Las Vegas. Wu said, "NetEase has been in talks with Nintendo for some time, and the team is working on some development kits." Wu also said, "The reason Marvel Rivals didn't launch on the first-gen Nintendo Switch is because of technical limitations that prevent the game from delivering a fun experience on Nintendo's console." Many people guess that this is due to the power of the console, because even the PlayStation 4 doesn't have this game.
"If the Nintendo Switch 2 can deliver the excellent performance that NetEase gamers want, we as developers are ready to develop such games, and the most interesting thing about this console is Nintendo's patent application, which shows that the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con controller has a gaming mouse-like function, which is suitable for use in games. For fast mouse movement in Marvel Rivals, the game may benefit from this patent."
Having said this, it means that Nintendo fans may definitely receive good news. Although the Nintendo Switch 2 may not be as powerful as the PlayStation 5, NetEase should be able to do something to make the game playable on the Nintendo Switch 2, especially the mouse controller, because it will help increase the customer base and the number of players many times over. Many people are secretly hoping that the Nintendo Direct on April 2 may reveal Marvel Rivals on Nintendo Switch 2. Who knows? If there is any progress, we will definitely report it.
