Deadpool is a total beast. Ever since he joined Marvel Rivals, player numbers have been absolutely off the charts
It’s been two days since our favorite loud-mouthed merc in red, Deadpool, crashed into Marvel Rivals. For those who don't know, he’s not just here for show—he’s a literal game-breaker. Deadpool arrived with three different roles, but only one can be picked per team. This means if you want to ban him, both sides have to commit to banning all three versions, making a total ban nearly impossible. Since his jump into the fray, Marvel Rivals' Steam player count has skyrocketed from a steady tens of thousands to unbelievable new heights. Let’s dive into the data
This update was first shared on X (though the source is still loyal to the name 'Twitter') by CultureCrave (verified with a gold checkmark). They reported that 'Marvel Rivals surpassed 200,000 concurrent players on Steam after adding Deadpool, marking its highest player count in over 8 months.' Before Deadpool’s debut, the game maintained a steady base of 80,000 to 100,000 concurrent players, typically seeing a slight bump with new hero releases before tapering off after a week or two
Deadpool’s rollout was a stroke of genius. For a month, he teased players by appearing locked in all three class slots, sparking endless theories about his true role. The reveal trailer left the community in shock—Marvel Rivals actually went there. This bold move single-handedly revitalized the game's hype, leading to a near 100% increase in Steam’s concurrent players. If Steam is seeing this kind of growth, the numbers on PlayStation and Xbox are probably just as explosive
As of writing, Steam’s current player count stands at 76,201, with a 24-hour peak of 168,353—all thanks to the Deadpool fever. While these numbers will likely dip over time, the real question is how much they’ll stabilize. However, this surge has brought a common frustration: new players locking in Deadpool for the first time. In casual modes, it's fine, but in Ranked? Playing a hero you haven't mastered is a massive liability. If you're seeing non-stop Deadpool bans, don't be surprised; players in Ranked have no patience for those 'testing' a new hero in a competitive setting. Please, get some practice in casual first so you don't end up being the dead weight on your team
