Although it doesn’t quite reach the same peak of concurrent players that it did when it released a year ago, Marvel Rivals, for all its warts — and there’s a lot of them — is still one popular game, averaging nearly 100,000 players alone on PC per day.
That said, imagine if NetEase partnered with DC Comics and Warner Bros. instead of Marvel, and the likes of Batman, Wonder Woman and Plastic Man were all fighting it out, skins like Kingdom Come Superman were being sold and the biggest emote is something goofy The Flash does?
I Need More Sonic X Justice League Content Really, Really Bad
Sonic team as Justice League heroes has so much potential.
Imagine no more, as one creator has put together some concepts for what DC Rivals could look like, and it’s epic.
At This Point, DC Fans WIll Take Whatever They Can Get When It Comes To Gaming Content
Over on Twitter, creator, AnGrey, who specializes in concepts, has released a few of their own for DC Rivals, including some awesome key art of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman in Rivals’ hyper-stylized look.
The concepts don’t stop there, though, as AnGrey has decided that Superman and Wonder Woman would be Vanguard characters while Batman would be a Strategist.
Oh, and don’t forget about the skins, as the creator has taken their original designs and modified them to fit different comic-accurate looks, similar to what Rivals has done in mish-mashing the two flairs.
Of course, no DC team would be complete without the rest of the Justice League, so Aquaman, Green Lantern and Flash have also been included in follow-up art. Both Aquaman and Flash would serve as Duelists in this fictional world. Meanwhile, Green Lantern would join Batman on the Strategist side.
And, yes, they too have skins, including a Reverse Flash outfit that would almost certainly need to launch with this concept.
In all, it’s an amazing concept with a ton of work done to help make things click within the parameters that NetEase has established with Marvel Rivals, including class roles and comic-looking but still armor-based outfits.
The only shame in all this, really, is that it simply doesn’t exist, and given the recent gaming options that fans of DC have to contend with (Gotham Knights or Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League), it’s a shame it isn’t out.
