Marvel Rivals Season 1: A Double-Sized Launch with the Fantastic Four
Get ready for a massive start to Marvel Rivals! Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, boasts double the content of a typical season. This unprecedented expansion is due to the developers' decision to introduce the Fantastic Four as a unified group.
This supersized season will deliver three new maps showcasing iconic New York City locations:
- Sanctum Sanctorum: Launching alongside Season 1, this map sets the stage for the new Doom Match game mode.
- Midtown: Prepare for intense Convoy missions through the bustling city streets.
- Central Park: Details remain scarce, but more information is promised closer to the mid-season update.
The initial launch will feature Mister Fantastic (Duelist) and Invisible Woman (Strategist). The Thing and Human Torch will join the fray approximately six to seven weeks later in the mid-season update. While this season is significantly larger, NetEase Games hasn't clarified the long-term impact on future content releases. However, it's currently expected that two new heroes or villains will be added per season.
While the absence of Blade has disappointed some fans, the sheer volume of new content in Season 1, coupled with ongoing speculation surrounding the game, ensures a thrilling future for Marvel Rivals.
