Marvel Rivals Unveils Blade's Official Artwork, Hints at Season 2 Debut
Marvel Rivals' Midnight Features event has treated players to the first official artwork of Blade, fueling speculation about his potential arrival as a playable character in Season 2. Season 1 is currently underway, offering new maps, a new game mode, and a compelling battle pass.
The Midnight Features quests, located in the Season menu, are divided into five chapters, each with three quests. Completing these quests rewards players with Chrono Tokens, Units, and a free Thor skin. All five chapters are expected to be accessible by January 17th.
Chapter 3's reward is a Gallery Card depicting Blade facing off against Season 1's antagonist, Dracula. While Blade's presence in the game's files had been previously rumored, this artwork marks the first official confirmation from NetEase Games. Season 1's narrative positions Dracula as having removed Blade and Doctor Strange from the battlefield.
The artwork's appearance has ignited fan theories about Blade's Season 2 debut as a playable character. Some predict a Season 1 finale where the Fantastic Four defeat Dracula, rescuing New York City, Blade, and Doctor Strange. Many believe Blade would excel as a Duelist, potentially featuring a transformation ability similar to Magik and Hulk's ultimates, enhancing strength, modifying attacks, and granting wall-hack capabilities.
Beyond Blade, leaked information from Season 0 reveals Ultron's full ability kit. Speculated to be a Strategist class, offering support and healing, Ultron's initial predicted Season 1 debut seems to have been postponed following the introduction of the Fantastic Four. While leaks often prove accurate, it's crucial to remember they remain unconfirmed rumors until officially announced by NetEase Games. The abundance of upcoming content has generated considerable excitement among Marvel Rivals players.
