Marvel Rivals Players Risk Bans

Summary

  • NetEase Games has warned that modding Marvel Rivals could lead to account bans, as it violates the game's terms of service.
  • Season 1 introduced a hidden anti-modding measure, but modders quickly found ways around it.
  • It remains unclear whether NetEase Games has issued any bans for modding Marvel Rivals.

NetEase Games, the developer and publisher behind the popular team shooter Marvel Rivals, has issued a stern warning to players: continue modding the game at your own peril. The company has made it clear that any form of modification, whether it's cosmetic hero mods or gameplay-enhancing add-ons, breaches the game's terms of service and could result in a permanent ban.

This announcement follows the launch of Season 1 for Marvel Rivals, which not only brought balance changes to various Heroes but also introduced two new characters from the Fantastic Four—Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic. Fans can look forward to the arrival of the other two members, Human Torch and The Thing, in upcoming updates. Since its debut in December 2024, Marvel Rivals has captivated fans of Marvel Comics and team shooters alike, earning a nomination for Online Game of the Year at the DICE Awards 2025, set to be broadcast live from Las Vegas on February 13.

Despite NetEase Games' efforts to curb modding with a new deterrent in Season 1, some players have managed to bypass these measures. IGN reported on a mod available on Nexus Mods, created by a user named Prafit, which circumvents the asset hash checks implemented by NetEase Games. Prafit has cautioned users that downloading the mod comes with the risk of account bans and recommends it only for those with high-end PCs. Following Prafit's workaround, another mod surfaced on social media, transforming Mister Fantastic into Luffy from One Piece, due to their similar powers. This mod, crafted by Ercuallo, was showcased in a video by RivalsLeaks on Twitter.

Marvel Rivals Warns Users to Stop Modding or Risk Bans

While it's not yet confirmed whether NetEase Games has handed out bans for modding, the company has emphasized that such actions contravene the game's terms of service. Although some mods, including one featuring US President-elect Donald Trump, have been taken down from Nexus Mods, Prafit's Season 1 workaround remains available, with over 500 downloads at the time of this writing.

Marvel Rivals has faced issues with false bans since its launch, but the risks associated with violating the game's terms of service have been clearly communicated. The community awaits to see how NetEase Games will address this ongoing situation.
