Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin
Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has dropped a sneak peek of a brand-new skin for Mister Fantastic: The Maker. This sinister alternate version of Reed Richards from the Ultimate universe will debut alongside the hero himself on January 10th, with the launch of Season 1.
The reveal showcases a dark, sleek design in black and gray, accented by a glowing blue circular emblem on the chest and back. A slate-grey mask, featuring a blue visor, obscures most of his face, reflecting his transformation from hero to villain. Gameplay footage highlights the suit's impressive stretching and shape-shifting capabilities.
Season 1: Eternal Night Falls promises a major update, including:
- The Maker Skin: Launching alongside Mister Fantastic.
- New Game Mode (Doom Match): An 8-12 player free-for-all where the top 50% win.
- New Maps: Including a dark, captivating version of New York City.
- Character Balance Adjustments: Expect buffs and nerfs to various heroes.
This isn't the only dark turn; Invisible Woman will also receive a villainous counterpart, Malice. Further fueling anticipation, dataminers have uncovered potential future skins for Spider-Man (Lunar New Year themed), Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange, sparking speculation about their Season 1 inclusion.
With the Season 0 finale approaching, the excitement surrounding Season 1: Eternal Night Falls is palpable. The combination of a new hero, a compelling villainous skin, a fresh game mode, and updated maps promises a significant leap forward for Marvel Rivals. The launch is set for January 10th at 1 AM PST.
