Dale Bashir of IGN Southeast Asia , who played the game at the Thailand Game Show 2019, found Marvel Super War to be "a great way to learn the basics of MOBAs with your favourite Marvel superheroes." Bashir felt that the game was more accessible than the other MOBA games such as Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and League of Legends: Wild Rift , citing the ability to easily earn more kills than those games. [2] Josh Ye of South China Morning Post praised the game for its graphics and character designs. Ye found the roles and powers of the characters were connected to their comic counterparts, making the gameplay "a very immersive experience." Despite feeling the game was "another reskin of a typical MOBA game", he lauded NetEase Games for its success in "applying the MOBA formula to the Marvel Universe" with superheroes as playable characters.
