Marvel Rivals: Dracula's Reign of Terror in Season 1: Eternal Night Falls
Marvel Rivals, drawing from the vast Marvel universe, introduces a compelling roster of heroes and villains. Season 1: Eternal Night Falls spotlights Dracula as the primary antagonist. This Transylvanian nobleman-turned-vampire lord, alongside Doctor Doom, manipulates the moon's orbit, plunging present-day New York City into chaos.
Who is Dracula in Marvel Rivals?
Count Vlad Dracula, the game's Season 1 villain, aims to conquer New York. He possesses formidable abilities: superhuman strength, speed, stamina, agility, reflexes, immortality, and regeneration. His arsenal also includes mind control, hypnosis, and shapeshifting.
Dracula's Role in Season 1's Narrative
Dracula uses Chronovium to disrupt the moon's orbit, creating his "Empire of Eternal Night." This plunges the city into darkness, enabling his vampire army to run rampant. Heroes like Spider-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Blade, and the Fantastic Four must unite to thwart his plan. This storyline mirrors Marvel's "Blood Hunt" (2024) comic arc, known for its intense vampire-centric action.
Will Dracula Be a Playable Character?
Currently, there's no official confirmation of Dracula's playable status. Considering Doctor Doom's absence as a playable character despite being Season 0's main villain, Dracula's playability remains uncertain. However, his central role in Season 1 strongly suggests he might become playable in future updates. This guide will be updated should NetEase Games announce his inclusion. Regardless, his presence will significantly impact Season 1's game modes and maps.
