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 release.
This supersized season will include:
- Three New Maps: Explore iconic New York City locations – the Sanctum Sanctorum (launching with Season 1 and featuring the new Doom Match mode), Midtown (for Convoy missions), and Central Park (details to be revealed later).
- The Fantastic Four: Mister Fantastic (Duelist) and Invisible Woman (Strategist) debut at launch, with The Thing and Human Torch arriving in a mid-season update approximately six to seven weeks later.
The developers highlighted the decision to launch the Fantastic Four together as the reason for Season 1's expanded scope. While the impact on future seasons remains unclear, the current plan is to continue adding two heroes or villains per season.
While the absence of Blade from the initial roster disappointed some fans, the sheer volume of new content in Season 1, coupled with ongoing speculation about future additions, keeps anticipation high. Prepare for an extended period of thrilling Marvel Rivals action!
