Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls is a resounding success, with players praising the newly introduced Midnight Features event quests. These quests offer flexibility, allowing completion across various game modes, including Quick Play, Competitive, and crucially, against AI opponents. This latter option has been particularly welcomed by players, providing a low-pressure environment for experimenting with new heroes and tackling challenges.
The positive reception extends beyond the quests themselves. Reddit users have highlighted the improved visual presentation of the event quests, showcased via an animated Daily Bugle-style newspaper in the game's Events tab. The enhanced rewards, such as a Gallery Card featuring an early look at Blade, have also garnered significant praise. The addition of a free Thor skin as a reward for completing all quests further sweetens the deal.
NetEase Games' commitment to regular content updates is another key factor in the game's success. The developers have confirmed plans to release a new playable hero every six weeks, ensuring a steady stream of fresh content for players. While Season 1 features the entire Fantastic Four, future seasons will reportedly have a more measured release schedule.
Beyond the Midnight Features, Season 1 boasts other improvements, including two free skins in the battle pass (up from one), new maps, a new game mode, and balance adjustments. This attention to detail and responsiveness to player feedback has fostered a positive outlook among the community regarding the future of Marvel Rivals. The game's recent DICE award nomination, PlayStation's Players' Choice award, and record-breaking concurrent player count on Steam further solidify its strong start. The combination of engaging content, community engagement, and consistent updates positions Marvel Rivals for continued growth and success.
