NetEase Games has announced the global release schedule for Marvel Rivals Season 1, titled Eternal Night Falls, which will launch simultaneously across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox on January 10. The season marks the arrival of the Fantastic Four, with Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic available at launch, while Human Torch and The Thing will be introduced later in the season.
Expanded Battle Pass and New Game Modes
The Season 1 Battle Pass promises a significant upgrade, offering over twice the rewards compared to Season 0. Players opting for the Luxury Pass will gain access to 10 exclusive costumes. The update also introduces a new competitive mode called Doom Match, where 8–12 players are divided into factions. Participants earn points by eliminating opponents, and the faction with the majority of top-performing players emerges victorious.
Fresh Maps and Events to Explore
Three new maps are set to expand the game’s battlegrounds. Sanctum Sanctorum and Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown will launch in the season’s first half, while Central Park is slated for a mid-season release. Additionally, special events tied to the new maps and heroes are expected to keep players engaged.
