Marvel Rivals confirmed to be getting rank placement matches

While Marvel Rivals is a competitive game with multiple ranks that players aim to climb, it’s a fact that the game doesn’t have any proper rank placement matches. This makes it tough for players to start their ranks from where they deserve, instead forcing them to start from the beginning. Fortunately, that’s about to change.

According to the latest dev Vision video, Marvel Rivals developers are planning to add placement matches in the game. The video also gave information on when fans can expect the system to come out.

If you’ve been hoping for Marvel Rivals to get rank placement matches for a while, keep reading because we have you covered.

When will rank placement matches come to Marvel Rivals?

In the latest Vision developer update, shared ahead of Season 4’s launch on September 12, the team acknowledged the ongoing conversations within the community about ranked matchmaking. They confirmed that placement matches are in development, but described it as a “complex feature with a lot of moving parts” that requires more time to finish and test properly.

This means placement matches won’t be ready in time for Season 4, but the developers stressed that they are “pushing forward as quickly as we can.”

With the rank placement matches, those who like playing competitively won’t have to worry about professional or high-ranked players being matched up with or against them every time a new season rolls around. This makes the game less fun for everyone, making it so there’s no balance in the game.

How will rank placement matches change Marvel Rivals?

Placement matches will help make Marve Rivals’ ranked mode more balanced by preventing high-level players from being dropped into much lower tiers at the start of a season. Instead of being forced down several ranks, skilled players will be placed closer to their true level after a short series of placement games. This means regular players won’t constantly run into top-tier opponents in their early matches.

For the wider community, placement matches should create a smoother start to every season. Casual players will face opponents of similar skill, while competitive players can quickly climb to their proper rank without grinding through mismatched games.
