Marvel Rivals' Midnight Features event unveils official Blade artwork, hinting at a potential Season 2 playable character debut. The event, accessible via the in-game Season menu, offers rewards including Chrono Tokens, Units, and a free Thor skin across five chapters of three quests each. All chapters unlock by January 17th.
A Chapter 3 reward showcases Blade battling Dracula, officially confirming Blade's presence in the game, previously only rumored based on data mining. Season 1's narrative positions Dracula as having removed Blade and Doctor Strange from the conflict.
Blade's Potential as a Playable Character:
The artwork fuels speculation that Blade will be a playable character in Season 2. Fan theories suggest a Season 1 finale featuring the Fantastic Four defeating Dracula, freeing Blade and Doctor Strange. Many believe Blade's role would be a Duelist, potentially with a transformation ability similar to Magik and Hulk's ultimates, enhancing strength, modifying attacks, and granting wall-hack vision.
Ultron's Leaked Abilities:
Beyond Blade, leaked information reveals Ultron's full ability set from Season 0. Predicted as a Strategist character offering support and healing, Ultron's arrival, initially speculated for Season 1, appears delayed with the introduction of the Fantastic Four. While leaks often prove accurate, confirmation remains crucial. The abundance of upcoming content keeps players optimistic about Marvel Rivals' future.
