Marvel Rivals Unveils Updates: S1 Balance Adjustments

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Dracula, Fantastic Four, and Balance Changes Unveiled

NetEase Games has unveiled exciting details about Season 1: Eternal Night Falls for Marvel Rivals, launching January 10th at 1 AM PST. This season introduces Dracula as the primary antagonist and welcomes the Fantastic Four to the hero roster. Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman debut on launch day, with Human Torch and The Thing following six to seven weeks later.

The Season 1 battle pass, priced at 990 Lattice (approximately $10), offers 10 skins and rewards players with 600 Lattice and 600 Units upon completion. Three new maps and a new game mode, "Doom Match," will also be introduced.

A recent developer update highlighted significant balance adjustments. Hela and Hawkeye, deemed overpowered in Season 0, will receive nerfs. Conversely, mobility-focused Vanguards like Captain America and Venom are getting buffs to improve their battlefield effectiveness.

Further balance tweaks include buffs for Wolverine and Storm, encouraging more strategic use of these mutants. Cloak and Dagger will also receive enhancements to broaden their team compatibility. Adjustments are planned for Jeff the Land Shark, addressing inconsistencies between his early warning and ultimate attack hitbox. While his ultimate's power has been a point of discussion, no major changes have been announced.

While NetEase Games remained silent on adjustments to the Seasonal Bonus feature, a point of contention among players, Season 1 promises a wealth of new content and balance refinements designed to enhance the overall gameplay experience. The community is eagerly anticipating the launch.
