Marvel Rivals Donald Trump Mod Reportedly Banned

Nexus Mods Bans Donald Trump Marvel Rivals Mod Due to Sociopolitical Concerns

A recently uploaded Donald Trump mod for the popular game, Marvel Rivals, has been removed from Nexus Mods, citing violations of its sociopolitical rules. The mod, which replaced Captain America's model with that of Donald Trump, generated considerable online buzz, even prompting searches for a corresponding Joe Biden mod. However, both mods are now inaccessible on the platform.

Marvel Rivals, a hero shooter developed by NetEase Games, has quickly gained millions of players since its release. The game's modding community is active, creating skins and model replacements ranging from alternate Marvel universe designs to even crossovers with other franchises like Fortnite.

The removal of the Trump mod aligns with Nexus Mods' 2020 policy prohibiting mods related to US sociopolitical issues. This policy, implemented during the highly contested 2020 presidential election, aims to maintain a neutral platform. While many players on social media anticipated the ban, given the perceived incongruity between Captain America's character and Trump's image, some expressed dissatisfaction with the platform's restrictions on political content. It's worth noting that despite this policy, Trump-related mods persist on other modding platforms for games like Skyrim, Fallout 4, and XCOM 2.

NetEase Games, the developer of Marvel Rivals, has yet to comment on the use of character mods, including those depicting politically charged figures. The company is currently focused on addressing various issues, such as bug fixes and resolving wrongful account bans within the game's burgeoning player base.
