As 2025 kicks off with the launch of Marvel Rivals, you might think Marvel's gaming ventures are taking a break. However, mobile gamers in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the UK have a new treat to enjoy with the soft launch of Marvel Mystic Mayhem. This game isn't your average tactical RPG; it dives into the mystical side of the Marvel Universe, spotlighting some of the more obscure and magical heroes.
From the underrated X-man Armour to the lesser-known Sleepwalker, Marvel Mystic Mayhem lets you assemble these unique characters alongside iconic figures like Iron Man and Doctor Strange. The game's distinct cel-shaded visuals enhance the experience as you recruit your team to combat the villainous Nightmare, who wields the power to manipulate dreams in a parallel world. Developed by NetEase, the same team behind the successful Marvel Rivals, this game promises a fresh take on Marvel's mobile offerings.
While Marvel Mystic Mayhem is another addition to the Marvel mobile lineup, its focus on lesser-known magical heroes and unique premise sets it apart from games like Marvel Future Fight. Whether this crossover style appeals to you might depend on your hands-on experience with the game.
