NetEase has revealed new details about Marvel Rivals Season 1, along with the first trailer for the update.

Season 1: Eternal Night Falls will launch on January 10 at 1am PT / 4am ET / 9am GMT.

The vampire-themed season will introduce new characters in the form of the Fantastic Four, who’ll be battling against the forces of Dracula.

An official synopsis reads: “Darkness engulfs New York as the Timestream Entanglement leaves Doctor Strange trapped in the Entangled Astral Plane, scattering the Darkhold pages. Dracula and Doctor Doom disrupt the moon’s orbit, plunging the city into eternal night and unleashing an army of vampiric creatures.

“With the world on the brink, the Fantastic Four join forces with iconic Marvel heroes, standing together in the epic battle to break the mystical darkness with science. Ignite the battle against Dracula with the Fantastic Four in Marvel Rivals!”

Marvel Rivals is a free-to-play 6v6 team-based shooter played from a third-person perspective. It’s developed by a new internal team at NetEase, which has said it’s “composed of global talent who previously worked on hit franchises such as Call of Duty and Battlefield”.

Released on December 6 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC, the game hit 10 million players in its first three days of availability and reached 20 million players within 11 days.
