Marvel Rivals Game Modes

Marvel Rivals features five unique game modes, which are listed below.

  • Convoy: Teams are assigned to an offensive and defensive side, where the former tries to escort a cart across the map to the finish point. Meanwhile, the defensive team tries to recapture the cart, eliminate the enemies, and push the cart back.

  • Domination: Teams fight over a single control point, earning points until reaching 100%. The first team to win two rounds secures victory.

  • Convergence: A hybrid mode combining checkpoint capture and convoy mechanics, where attackers first capture a point before escorting an objective through multiple checkpoints.

  • Conquest: Teams earn points by collecting dropped tokens from eliminated enemies. The first team to reach 50 points or the highest score when time runs out wins.

  • Doom Match: A free-for-all deathmatch where the top six players to reach 16 kills wins. The top 50% of the leaderboard are declared winners if time runs out.
