Marvel Rivals Season 1: A Deep Dive into the "Eternal Night Falls" Battle Pass
Get ready for the chilling debut of Marvel Rivals Season 1, "Eternal Night Falls," launching January 10th at 1 AM PST! This season plunges players into a gothic nightmare orchestrated by Dracula, with a surprising shift away from Doctor Doom's usual villainy. The Fantastic Four take center stage, battling Dracula's forces after Doctor Strange falls victim to a cunning trap.
The Darkhold battle pass, priced at 990 Lattice (approximately $10), offers a treasure trove of rewards. Complete the pass to earn 600 Lattice and 600 Units, usable for future cosmetic purchases or battle passes. Ten exclusive skins headline the rewards, alongside sprays, nameplates, emotes, and MVP animations. A significant advantage: the pass doesn't expire, allowing players to complete it at their own pace.
NetEase Games has unveiled a captivating preview of the Season 1 battle pass skins:
A Glimpse at the Season 1 Battle Pass Skins:
- Loki – All-Butcher
- Moon Knight – Blood Moon Knight
- Rocket Raccoon – Bounty Hunter
- Peni Parker – Blue Tarantula
- Magneto – King Magnus (House of M inspired)
- Namor – Savage Sub-Mariner
- Iron Man – Blood Edge Armor (Dark Souls-esque)
- Adam Warlock – Blood Soul
- Scarlet Witch – Emporium Matron
- Wolverine – Blood Berserker (Van Helsing inspired)
The season's aesthetic leans heavily into a dark, gothic theme. A blood moon casts its ominous glow over a New York City backdrop in the new maps. Character skins reflect this, with Wolverine channeling Van Helsing, Loki sporting a sinister green and black All-Butcher outfit, and Moon Knight donning a striking black and white costume. Scarlet Witch's classic red and purple attire and Adam Warlock's golden armor with a crimson cape complete the dark and dramatic ensemble.
While the battle pass has generated significant excitement, the absence of skins for the newly introduced Fantastic Four characters (Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic) has surprised some fans. These characters will debut in Season 1, but their cosmetic options will be available through the in-game shop. Despite this, the abundance of new content has left many anticipating future developments from NetEase Games.
