The wait is over! Marvel Rivals has revealed the official trailer for Season 1: Eternal Night Falls. The new season kicks off on Friday, January 10, 2025, at 1:00 PM (PST).

In this season, darkness takes over New York City after Doctor Doom and Dracula tamper with the moon’s orbit. Their actions unleash vampires and plunge the city into chaos. With Doctor Strange trapped in the Entangled Astral Plane, the heroes must recover scattered pages of the Darkhold with the help of the Fantastic Four.
Marvel Rivals Season 1 — New features
For the first time, the Fantastic Four join the game! The best part is that we are gonna get 4 new characters at once. These characters are Mister Fantastic (a new Vanguard character), Human Torch (who will probably fit into the Duelist role), Invisible Woman (A new Strategist), and The Thing (An obvious choice for Vanguard) They team up with other Marvel heroes to fight Dracula and end the villains’ schemes by using science and magic.

These are confirmed new characters, however we might get even more new Heroes (and Villains). Players have speculated that Deadpool and Dr. Doom will eventually be added to the game. And some even hope for other fan-popular Heroes like Daredevil. And there were multiple leaks regarding Blade as a new character, which fits this season perfectly. One of the credible leakers XOXLEAK made a post on X, describing Blade as a playable character with a transformation ability.
A new map of New York City will be a sure addition to the game. We don’t know yet the objectives of new missions, however, we will probably focus on the conflict between the Fantastic Four and Dracula.
We will get Battle Pass with the new Season, however, we don’t know yet what will be the awards. We will definitely get skins and cosmetics for the new characters of the Fantastic Four, however, other Battle Pass rewards are unknown.
Note: Although Season 0 Battle Pass rewards will be eligible for claim even after the start of the new Season, the Battle Pass currency will reset to 0.
