Marvel Rivals has revealed a new map, Central Park, and shared a glimpse of Blade, a new hero who is set to join the game’s iconic team. Let’s dive into what’s new and what’s coming soon!
Enter Dracula’s Dark Realm
In the latest update, Marvel Rivals have taken the curtains off from the vampire-themed Central Park, which is full of gothic horror and will let players have a battle in the dark fantasy world.
This new location will be available with the major update, arriving in the mid-season on 21 February 2025. Marvel Rivals has described the map in a blog post: “When the Timestream Entanglement swept over New York City, Dracula seized the opportunity with Doctor Doom’s gift, stopping the moon and declaring an eternal night with the power of Chronovium!
Now, the heroes are ready to take the battle to his gothic headquarters within Central Park…” Traverse into complete darkness to discover the imprisoned powers on the path to Dracula’s Castle.”
The trailer of this thrilling map has also been dropped, displaying Dracula’s castle with gothic statues, a spooky environment, and other elements that enhance the map’s eerie vibes.
It shows the castle from the inside, and then comes Dracula, who reads some rituals. The surroundings are drenched in crimson. Players will have to step into this new adventure and encounter the lethal Dracula.
Blade’s Mysterious Fate Unfolds
Marvel Rivals have also challenged players in the post,” Do you have what it takes to stop Dracula’s ritual and put an end to the Empire of Eternal Night?” However, this wasn’t all the end of the trailer surprised fans with the brief clip of Blade, who is known as the legendary vampire hunter, making him a right fit for this map and to deal with Dracula.
But the twist here is that Blade is shown held in Dracula’s lair with chains around him, refraining him from escaping; this makes him unplayable for now, leaving fans confused about what else surprise is waiting ahead in the game.
Furthermore, among the most awaited characters, Human Torch and The Thing will also be arriving with the update, completing the Fantastic Four team. Besides this all, the leak regarding adjustment of certain characters and new changes is also surfacing in the community which has resulted in mixed reactions.
Marvel Rivals is clearly gearing up its content and staying committed to its plan of adding two new heroes every season, and fans are excited about what’s to come.
