Marvel Rivals lets you team up with friends and other players through its Faction system, making the game more engaging and competitive. Whether you want to create your own team or join an existing one, here’s everything you need to know about getting started with Factions in Marvel Rivals.

What Are Factions in Marvel Rivals?

Factions work like teams or guilds in Marvel Rivals, allowing up to 12 players to group together. They’re not just for show – being part of a Faction lets you participate in tournaments where you can win cosmetic items and even real money prizes.

Faction leaders can customize their team by choosing an emblem, setting region preferences, and deciding who can join based on rank requirements. You can either make your Faction open for anyone to join or set it as invite-only to be more selective about membership.

How to Create or Join a Faction

The game gives you two options: start your own Faction from scratch or join one that already exists. Both processes are straightforward and take just a few minutes to complete.

Starting a new Faction gives you full control over your team. Here’s how to set one up:

First, open the Tournament tab at the top of your screen. Look for the Create Faction option and click it. The game will ask you to fill in several details about your Faction:

  • Pick a name and abbreviation for your team
  • Choose your primary language
  • Set the minimum rank players need to join
  • Decide if anyone can join or if they need approval
  • Pick your region and platform preferences
  • Write a short announcement (up to 200 characters) describing your Faction
  • Select an emblem, or let the game pick one randomly

After filling in these details, just hit the yellow Create Faction button, and your team is ready to go.

If you’d rather join an established team, the process is even simpler:

  • Open the Tournament tab again, but this time select View Factions. You can search for specific Factions by name or browse through the list.
  • When you find one you like, click to join. If the Faction is set to “Free to Join,” you’ll become a member right away.
  • For Factions that require approval, you’ll need to apply and wait for the leader to accept you.

Some Factions might have specific requirements, so check their description before applying. Look for teams that match your region and platform to ensure you can play together effectively.

Getting involved with a Faction changes how you’ll play Marvel Rivals. You’ll have access to tournaments, a consistent group to play with, and chances to earn special rewards. Take some time to think about what you want – whether that’s running your own Faction or joining an established team. The steps are straightforward either way, and you can always switch Factions later if your first choice doesn’t work out.
