Gen.G’s Journey in Marvel Rivals so far
Gen.G announced its official arrival into Marvel Rivals on May 15th, 2025, after revealing its new roster of players.
However, Gen.G did participate in Marvel Rivals beforehand, playing in the Season 1: Eternal Night Falls Championship with an academy roster. After placing runner-up in that competition, Gen.G officially entered the scene with four members of the original roster and three new members from the winning team Uprise, which included FUNFUN, CHOPPA and Brownie.
The organisation has competed in several notable events. It was invited to The Shroud Gauntlet back on May 17th, where it placed fifth overall after losing to Sentinels 1-2 in the Lower Bracket Quarterfinals.
In Asia Ignite Stage 1, Gen.G ended the tournament as runners-up after losing 3-4 to REJECT in the Grand Finals. Come the Ignite Mid-Season Finals, and Gen.G became the first team to be eliminated after losing to ENVY 0-2 in the Play-In Stage.
Gen.G have been invited to Ignite Stage 2 based on its Stage 1 performance. Exact dates for the competition have yet to be revealed, but it is expected to take place between September and October. However, as of writing, Gen.G have yet to announce replacements for the roster.
Gen.G becomes the latest team to undergo roster changes after Ignite Stage 1.
Sentinels recently revealed that it had parted ways with three members of its Marvel Rivals roster. Furthermore, the Ignite Mid Season Finals Champions roster announced it was leaving Rad EU and is in search of a new organisation to sign with.
