Marvel Rivals Showcases Its Season 1 Darkhold Battle Pass
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 Doctor Doom taking a temporary backseat. The Fantastic Four lead the charge against Dracula's forces after Doctor Strange falls victim to a cunning trap.
The Darkhold battle pass, priced at 990 Lattice (approximately $10), offers a wealth of rewards. Complete the pass to earn 600 Lattice and 600 Units, usable for future cosmetics or battle passes. Ten exclusive skins headline the rewards, alongside sprays, nameplates, emotes, and MVP animations. A key feature: the battle pass doesn't expire, allowing completion at your own pace.
A Sneak Peek at the Season 1 Skins:
NetEase Games has unveiled a captivating preview of the Season 1 battle pass skins. Prepare to witness iconic heroes in dramatically altered guises:
- Magneto as the imposing King Magnus, a House of M-inspired design.
- Rocket Raccoon, sporting a rugged Bounty Hunter aesthetic.
- Iron Man, reimagined in striking Blood Edge Armor, reminiscent of Dark Souls.
- Peni Parker, dazzling in a vibrant Blue Tarantula suit.
- Namor, commanding in a regal green and gold Savage Sub-Mariner costume.
The full roster of battle pass skins includes:
- Loki - All-Butcher
- Moon Knight - Blood Moon Knight
- Rocket Raccoon - Bounty Hunter
- Peni Parker - Blue Tarantula
- Magneto - King Magnus
- Namor - Savage Sub-Mariner
- Iron Man - Blood Edge Armor
- Adam Warlock - Blood Soul
- Scarlet Witch - Emporium Matron
- Wolverine - Blood Berserker
A Dark and Gloomy Aesthetic:
Season 1 embraces a dark, gothic theme. Wolverine's skin evokes Van Helsing, while a blood moon casts a sinister shadow over New York City's new maps. Loki's All-Butcher skin exudes menace, and Moon Knight's black and white costume provides a stark contrast. Scarlet Witch retains her signature red and purple, while Adam Warlock is clad in golden armor and a crimson cape.
Noteworthy Absence and Future Outlook:
While the battle pass is generating considerable excitement, the absence of Fantastic Four skins has surprised some fans. Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic debut in Season 1, but their cosmetics will be available separately in the in-game shop. With this substantial content drop, anticipation is high for what NetEase Games has in store for future seasons.
