Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown

Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown was the first new map to be released in Marvel Rivals Season 1, debuting at the season's launch. This map is designed for the Convoy mode, where players either escort or attempt to stop a moving vehicle as it travels across the map. It's the third Convoy map in Rivals, joining Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path and Tokyo 2099: Spider-Islands.

Set under the eerie glow of Dracula's Blood Moon, Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown offers a dark rendition of New York City. The map features several Points of Interest, blending iconic Marvel locations with real-world Midtown Manhattan landmarks:

• Baxter Building
• Grand Central Terminal
• Stark/Avengers Tower
• Fisk Tower
• Ardmore’s Bookstore
• Timely Trend

Empire of Eternal Night: The Mystical Sanctum Santorum

The Empire of Eternal Night version of Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Santorum was added to Marvel Rivals in Season 1. This map is unique as it's the only one to feature the Doom Match mode, a free-for-all deathmatch where players compete to survive and eliminate others. Those in the top half of the leaderboard at the end of the match earn wins, with the top player receiving the MVP title.

The Sanctum Santorum map beautifully captures Doctor Strange’s mystical mansion, which serves as his home and headquarters. First introduced in a 1963 comic, it's now well-known from its appearances in the MCU. In Marvel Rivals, the Sanctum Santorum in New York City acts as Earth's supernatural defense hub. The map is filled with secrets, Easter eggs, supernatural rooms with impossible ceilings, portals, and an infinite staircase. Players can even interact with Bats The Ghost Dog on the map.

Empire of Eternal Night: Central Park

Details about the Central Park map are still emerging, as it's set to launch in the second half of Marvel Rivals Season 1. Located in Manhattan between the Upper West and Upper East Side neighborhoods, Central Park has been a staple in various Marvel properties, most recently in the 2023 Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 video game.

In Marvel Rivals, the Central Park map will focus on a stylized version of Belvedere Castle, situated at one of the park's highest points. This Gothic architectural gem is expected to serve as a thematic hideout for Dracula within New York City, fitting perfectly into the Empire of Eternal Night theme.

These are all the new maps introduced in Marvel Rivals Season 1, each offering unique gameplay experiences and immersive settings within the Marvel Universe.
