Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls is off to a strong start, exceeding expectations and delighting players. The recent addition of Midnight Features event quests has been particularly well-received.
The quests' versatility, allowing completion across Quick Play, Competitive, and AI-controlled matches, has been a major point of praise. This feature provides a less pressured environment for players to experiment with new heroes and tackle challenges. The improved visual presentation of these quests, showcased via an animated Daily Bugle-style newspaper in the Events tab, has also been lauded. The promise of a free Thor skin for completing all quests adds further incentive.
Beyond the event quests, Season 1 has introduced other player-pleasing additions. These include two free skins in the battle pass (instead of the usual one), new maps, a fresh game mode, and impactful balance adjustments. The positive reception reflects NetEase Games' commitment to community feedback and attention to detail.
The developer's commitment to releasing a new playable hero every month and a half further fuels player enthusiasm. While the initial season features the entire Fantastic Four, future seasons will maintain a steady, albeit less intensive, content release schedule. This balanced approach ensures sustained engagement without overwhelming players.
The success of Season 1, including record-breaking concurrent players on Steam, a DICE award nomination, and a PlayStation Players' Choice award, demonstrates the game's growing popularity and NetEase Games' successful strategy.
