Publisher NetEase Games has finally banned custom skin mods in Marvel Rivals, and one developer with credits on "multiple live service games" has explained why this happens to so many multiplayer hits.
Marvel Rivals recently ushered in its first season, adding in some Fantastic Four characters and reaching record player peaks while doing so, but its Season One also bought in a ban for the unofficial skins players had made. These included a few anime skins and things like the banned Donald Trump and Joe Biden ones that caused a hullabaloo last week, among others. And with so many online games taking a similar route, developer Del Walker decided to chime in on 'why' based on his experiences working at Rocksteady, Sega, and more.
