A Donald Trump character mod for the game Marvel Rivals has been removed from Nexus Mods, reportedly due to its violation of the modding platform's policies against sociopolitically charged content. NetEase Games, the developer of Marvel Rivals, has yet to comment on the matter or the broader issue of character mods.
Marvel Rivals, a hero shooter released recently, has quickly gained millions of players. Players are experimenting with various modifications, ranging from cosmetic skin changes inspired by Marvel Comics and films to more unusual replacements, such as Fortnite-styled characters.
A mod replacing Captain America's model with Donald Trump circulated on social media, prompting some users to search for a similar Joe Biden mod. However, both mods are now inaccessible on Nexus Mods, resulting in error messages.
Reasons for Removal:
Nexus Mods' 2020 policy prohibiting mods related to US sociopolitical issues is cited as the reason for the removal. This policy was implemented during the highly contested 2020 presidential election.
Social media reactions were mixed. Many players found the mod inappropriate, given Captain America's established persona. Others criticized Nexus Mods' stance on political content. While this instance is notable, mods featuring Donald Trump have previously appeared in games like Skyrim, Fallout 4, and XCOM 2, suggesting a varied approach across modding platforms.
NetEase Games, the game developer, remains silent on the use of character mods, focusing instead on addressing bugs and resolving player account issues in the newly launched game.
