Players of Marvel Rivals are buzzing with excitement over the new Midnight Features event quests introduced in Season 1. These quests can be tackled across various game modes, and many players are grateful for the chance to compete against AI opponents. The developers are planning to roll out a new hero every six weeks or so, keeping the game fresh and engaging.
Fans of Marvel Rivals have been flocking to social media to express their happiness with the latest additions in Season 1: Eternal Night Falls. It’s been a good time for NetEase Games, as Marvel Rivals recently received a DICE award nomination and snagged the title of top new game in PlayStation’s Players’ Choice for December 2024. On top of that, the game hit a new peak for concurrent players on Steam with the launch of the season.
Even though Marvel Rivals is still in the early phase of Season 1, NetEase Games is already giving fans a glimpse into the future. In a recent chat, developers revealed their plan to introduce a new hero every month and a half. Although Season 1 will unveil the entire Fantastic Four over three months, future seasons might be less jam-packed. Despite this, fans are eager to see their favorite characters join the lineup like clockwork.
Over on Reddit, user Useful_You_8045 praised the Midnight Features event quests for Season 1 and their flexibility in being completed in various modes. Several available quests can be tackled in Quick Play, Competitive, or AI matches. This option to face computer-controlled enemies offers a welcome break for players who wish to explore new heroes or take on challenges without the pressure of high-stakes gameplay. Some Redditors also noted an improvement in the rewards this season, like the Gallery Card, which gave players their first peek at Blade.
Fans also pointed out NetEase Games’ strides in enhancing the quests’ visual appeal, adding to their allure within the game. When accessing the Events tab, players are greeted by a lively animated Midnight Features newspaper. Each headline and image on this interactive display teases the new quests. Although not all challenges are live yet, they are anticipated to roll out fully by January 17. As a cherry on top, those completing all event quests will earn a free Thor skin.
Gamers are thrilled with the enhancements NetEase Games has rolled out in Season 1, such as offering two free skins in the battle pass instead of one. Additions like new maps, a fresh game mode, and balancing tweaks have enriched the season’s offering, ensuring a fair experience across the diverse character roster. With NetEase Games actively listening to their community and refining details, players are optimistic about the hero shooter’s bright future.
