Marvel Rivals Reveals First Official Look at Blade

Marvel Rivals' Midnight Features Event Hints at Blade's Arrival and Reveals Ultron's Abilities

Marvel Rivals' Season 1 Midnight Features event has unveiled official artwork of Blade, fueling speculation about his potential inclusion as a playable character in Season 2. The event, accessible via the in-game Season menu, features five chapters with three quests each. Completing these quests rewards players with Chrono Tokens, Units, and a free Thor skin. The Chapter 3 reward is a Gallery Card depicting Blade facing Dracula, the Season 1 antagonist. This marks the first official confirmation of Blade's existence within the game, following previous data-mined discoveries. Season 1's narrative positions Dracula as having removed Blade and Doctor Strange from the battlefield.

The artwork's appearance strongly suggests Blade's arrival as a playable character in the upcoming Season 2. Fan theories suggest the Season 1 finale will see the Fantastic Four defeating Dracula, rescuing Blade and Doctor Strange. Many believe Blade would excel as a Duelist class, potentially featuring a transformation ability similar to Magik and Hulk's ultimates, enhancing his strength, modifying attacks, and granting wall-hack capabilities.

Further fueling anticipation, leaks have revealed Ultron's complete ability set. Speculated to be a Strategist class, offering support and healing to allies, Ultron's introduction was initially anticipated for Season 1 but seems to have been postponed. While leaks often prove accurate, it's crucial to remember that they remain unconfirmed until official announcements. The abundance of upcoming content keeps players optimistic about Marvel Rivals' future.
