Gameplay
Players assume the role of a Summoner, tasked by The Collector, to build a team of Marvel heroes and villains and pit them against one another in combat. Gameplay is similar to that of Injustice: Gods Among Us and Mortal Kombat X, where the game's fighting arena is rendered in 3D with a 2D plane for the superheroes' movements and actions. New players begin with access to two characters, and can work to access additional characters including Iron Man, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Hulk, Magneto, Ultron, Loki, and Rhino. Each character is upgradable, featuring their own classes, movements, traits, abilities, and special moves.
Gameplay features an energy system that limits the number of quest-based battles that players can compete in. Energy recharges automatically at a set rate over time or players can refill their energy manually. As players increase their level their energy limit increases as well. Crystals and other items that impact play may be found in chests as players finish battles. In addition to quests, users can battle against opponents in the game's "Versus" mode. Here, players can choose their own username to identify them in the battle. They can then play against other players' champions in one-on-one matches or three-on-three limited time arenas. Opponents are A.I.-controlled so therefore they are not actual real-time players. Controversially, Marvel: Contest of Champions requires a persistent Internet connection in order to play both these single and multiplayer modes.
Controls are designed for touch, with no need for buttons or virtual joysticks. Gameplay includes light, medium, and heavy attack options, as well as block. The player can shuffle back or sprint forward, and each hero has three of their own special attacks, as well as unique abilities and a one signature ability. Synergy Bonuses reward the player for combining characters who have a unique relationship. For example, combining Black Bolt and Cyclops rewards the entire team with a +10% block proficiency. As stated by Cuz Parry from Kabam, "There is also a combo system that rewards players for mixing up their moves and performing well-timed blocks. The higher the combo, the faster your special attacks regenerate." As characters take damage and deal damage, a special meter powering his or her unique moves fills up. As the player levels up their characters more unique moves are possible, but these require saving for longer to use them.
Characters can be leveled up by using ISO-8, Gold and Catalysts, which are all gained when fighting in Story Quests and special events. Class specific ISO-8 and Catalysts provide heroes of the specified class a bonus. XP is gained via Story Quests and, as you gain more XP, players unlock the ability to add more heroes to their roster, starting from the initial two, up to five heroes. Higher levels also allow players to save more ISO-8, catalysts and objects in vault. In addition to taking part in a global chat feature, players can also join alliances. Alliances allow chat amongst other members, and provides the opportunity to work together to earn alliance points, which can be used to earn its own type of crystal.
Other quests
To tie in with the release of Avengers: Age of Ultron, Marvel: Contest of Champions was updated in late April to include Ultron-centric events and characters. To assist in the Ultron missions, all players received 2 star Black Widow, The Vision, and Hulkbuster characters. The new quest, called Ultron's Assault, was a limited time story quest that had lots of small quests, referred to as event quests or story events, provided new rewards through play. Many more limited-time quests just like Ultron's Assault have been introduced over the lifetime of the game. Each lasts for a limited time before being removed to make way for another quest.
Alliances
Alliances are the groups or parties of the game. These hold up to 30 players, can be private or open, and allow the player to get alliance crystals by helping others, as well as access alliance quests. These alliances can be created with 5,000 battle chips or 100 units. Alliance Events are events that an alliance take part in, such as "Rank Up" or "Duel Skirmish" or "Summoner Advancement" each granting player rewards. Members of an alliance can assist one another in quests, and alliance member is ranked in relation to the rest. The alliance leader is able to choose which members become officers, who are able to remove players from their alliance. Recently added to the game are Alliance Wars, where two alliances can go head-to-head. An upcoming feature, Bases, will allow an Alliance to fight and to defend a part of the Battlerealm they claim as their own.
Locations
There are a number of different locations where the battles take place. These include: the Avengers' Tower, the Astral Plane (overseen by the Eye of Agamotto), the Sanctum Sanctorum, Asteroid M, the Asgard throne room, Asgard vault, Asgard power station, The Kyln, Hell's Kitchen, Knowhere, the Savage Land, a S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier hangar, Sokovia, Grandmaster's 'Galactorum', the Wakandan necropolis, and an Oscorp laboratory.
Characters
Marvel: Contest of Champions features many playable heroes and villains. Playable fighters can come in one of five tiers, signified by 1 through 5 stars. Not all characters are available in every tier, and while some can be obtained through various crystals, others can only be obtained via the Versus arenas. Each character is assigned to one of six classes: Cosmic, Tech, Mutant, Skill, Science, and Mystic. In some quests you can use the character classes to unlock paths. There are also relationships between the classes, and certain classes have an advantage over others. The classes relate in the aforelisted order—for example, Cosmic has power over Tech, Tech has power over Mutant, and so on.
Characters with a class advantage against their opponent gain increased damage at a certain percent, while their opponent loses damage at a certain percent. Three star heroes and four star heroes gain higher percentage of damage compared to two star heroes. When the player completes quests or events, they earn experience to allow their character to level up.

Kabam creative director Cuz Parry describes the game as a "one vs. one, arcade-style fighting game with multiplayer as well as role-playing game elements with a quest/story mode where you're pitted against a wide range of heroes and villains from the Marvel Universe".
Expansion to China
On 28 April 2015, Kabam and Longtu Games announced that Marvel: Contest of Champions will be published in China in late 2015. Some elements will be changed for the Chinese market.
Comic book adaptation
In June 2015, it was announced that Marvel would be publishing a comic book adaptation of the game, taking place in the mainstream Marvel universe. The comic will introduce new heroes who will eventually appear in the game, such as White Fox, a heroine from South Korea, and Guillotine, a French heroine with a mystical sword. The Maestro will also be featured as an antagonist.
Reception
Marvel: Contest of Champions has received generally positive response. Upon release in December 2014, the game was named Editors' Choice on the App Store. It has more than 40 million downloads. Unfortunately all the goodwill and positive response afforded by the player base has been completely obliterated by the update 12.0, released on the 1st of March 2017, that replaced any element of both fun and skill from the game. This is reflected by the current score in the Apple app store
