Marvel Rivals Season 1: Eternal Night Falls – A Sneak Peek

Get ready for the launch of Marvel Rivals Season 1: Eternal Night Falls on January 10th! This massive update boasts double the usual content, including new maps, a thrilling new game mode, a wealth of cosmetic items, and the highly anticipated arrival of the Fantastic Four.

A recent developer video showcased the exciting new Midtown map, featuring iconic locations like the Baxter Building and Avengers Tower. Intriguingly, the video hints at the presence of Wilson Fisk, a first for the game, adding another layer of intrigue to the already packed update. Another new map, the Sanctum Sanctorum, will be the stage for the new Doom Match game mode.

The Fantastic Four will be making their grand entrance! Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman arrive on launch day, bringing their unique strategic abilities to the hero shooter roster. Human Torch and The Thing will join the fray later in a substantial mid-season update. The Midtown map, as seen in the video, is expected to be central to a convoy mission.

The community is abuzz with anticipation, particularly for the arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman. Fans are speculating about Mister Fantastic’s potential role as a hybrid Duelist/Vanguard, and Invisible Woman’s strategic capabilities as a new Strategist are generating considerable excitement. The inclusion of a blood moon and subtle references to other Marvel characters in the map design have fueled speculation about future additions to the game.

With a double dose of content and the Fantastic Four joining the fight, Season 1: Eternal Night Falls promises to be a game-changer for Marvel Rivals. The January 10th launch (1 AM PST) can't come soon enough!
