Marvel Rivals is the latest game to make a splash in the hero shooter scene, and it’s easy to see where it takes its inspiration from. That’s not to say the developers didn’t put enough of a unique spin on things. Team-up abilities, for example, are a special mechanic and there are quite a few other distinct terms to learn.

Following the absolute disaster of Battlefield 2042, there’s a pretty large hole to fill. But is Delta Force—the free-to-play first-person shooter from developer Team Jade—destined to take the long-running franchise’s place? Probably not. But it’s still a competent, easy-to-dive-into multiplayer shooter with...
