Can Support Please Be Added To Play Marvel Rivals on Heroic Launcher???

Hello Team! 👋

I just made an annoyingly lengthy post on your X page about this before I found your Discord Support page here (sorry 😅), but in summary there’s a huge demand for the new Marvel Rivals game from Epic Games.

I’m in a pickle because:
1. I have an older Xbox One Series S, not the new “Xbox Series S.
2. Marvel Rivals is ONLY available on PC via Windows on Steam or the Epic Games Store OR the newest generation consoles (PS5 / Xbox Series S/X).
3. I plan to build a PC this year, but for now I’m broke and times are tough economically for many people to upgrade.
4. Since this game is so popular, most of my friends and many others are playing it (The game reached 10 million players worldwide within 72 hours).

At the moment, the only way that folks like me who have a MacBook Pro with Apple Silicon (2021 M1 Pro running Sequoia 15.2) are supposedly able to play Marvel Rivals is via Crossover Preview. Since Crossover Preview is a newer beta version of Crossover, it costs $60 to download and obtain the license.

This essentially means that if you want to run this free game on a Mac, you need to buy a $60 piece of beta software that may or may not run it properly

Tl;Dr:

PLEASEEE work on adding Marvel Rivals to the Heroic Games Launcher.

I regularly use Heroic to run Rocket League on my 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro and it’s so cool that I can play competitively using the XDR Display Resolution and the ProMotion 120hz screen (which is way faster than my Xbox One S and 60hz 4k TV).

I also figured that since you can already run the Epic Games Store launcher on Heroic that I could setup Marvel Rivals. I did download the full (39GB) game on there, but when I attempted to run it using the Game-Porting-Toolkit-Latest it would act like it was going to play and then never run and ask if I wanted to play / launch it. I tried this with Whisky version 2.3.4 and it wouldn’t work either.
