Marvel Rivals: Season Content Halved for Upcoming Seasons
Marvel Rivals Season 1: A Double-Sized Debut
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 launch, creating a richer, more immersive experience.
This supersized season includes:
- Three New Maps: Explore iconic New York City locations: the Sanctum Sanctorum (available at launch, featuring the new Doom Match mode), Midtown (for Convoy missions), and Central Park (details to be revealed later).
- The Fantastic Four Arrival: Mister Fantastic (Duelist) and Invisible Woman (Strategist) debut with Season 1, with The Thing and Human Torch joining the fray in a mid-season update approximately six to seven weeks later.
- Extended Playtime: Expect a season length roughly double the usual three months, providing extended gameplay and exploration.
While the expanded Season 1 content is exciting news, the absence of Blade has disappointed some fans. However, future seasons hold the potential for more heroes and villains to join the roster. NetEase Games hasn't clarified how this oversized season will affect the future release schedule of new features, maps, or game modes. For now, the expectation remains that two new characters will be added per season.
