No official explanation has been given for the team's dismissal, sparking speculation about the game's performance, internal shifts at NetEase, or changes in the Marvel partnership.

This sudden upheaval leaves Marvel Rivals players anxious about future updates, new content, and continued support. While NetEase has yet to officially address the impact on the game, concerns about its long-term viability are understandably high.

The incident underscores the challenges developers face in maintaining player engagement and meeting corporate expectations within the competitive mobile gaming market.
