Marvel Rivals Season 1 has thrilled fans with an array of exciting new content, including the opportunity to earn a free Thor skin through the Midnight Features event. The season, which kicked off on January 10 and will run until April 11, introduces a gripping storyline where Dracula traps Doctor Strange and attacks New York City, prompting The Fantastic Four to step in and save the day.
Season 1 brings a fresh wave of gameplay experiences with the introduction of the Doom Match mode, designed for 8-12 players in a free-for-all setting where the top 50% emerge victorious. New maps, Midtown and Sanctum Sanctorum, allow players to immerse themselves in iconic Marvel settings. NetEase Games has also rolled out a captivating battle pass featuring 10 original skins alongside a variety of other cosmetics for players to collect.
As part of the season's festivities, players can earn Thor's "Reborn from Ragnarok" skin by completing challenges within the Midnight Features event. This skin revives one of Thor's classic comic looks, complete with a winged helmet, a navy chestpiece adorned with silver discs, a crimson cape, and tight chainmail covering his arms and legs. Additionally, a free Iron Man skin is available to all players by redeeming a code shared on the game's social media accounts.
To secure Thor's skin, players must engage with the quests in the Midnight Features event. The first chapter of quests is currently available, with subsequent chapters unlocking progressively over the course of a week. By January 17, all quests will be accessible, allowing players to claim the new Thor skin. Alongside this, players can also earn a free Hela skin through Twitch Drops as part of the Season 1 launch.
In the Marvel Rivals shop, new skins for Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are available for purchase at 1,600 Units each. These Units can be earned by completing in-game quests and achievements or by converting Lattice, the game's premium currency. Those who invest in the battle pass can earn up to 600 Units and 600 Lattice as they complete all pages, enhancing their gaming experience with a variety of new content. The excitement surrounding Marvel Rivals Season 1 signals a promising future for fans of this dynamic game.
