Marvel Rivals Season 1: Dracula's Reign of Eternal Night
Marvel Rivals boasts a vast roster of Marvel characters, and Season 1: Eternal Night Falls introduces Dracula as the primary antagonist. Teaming up with Doctor Doom, Dracula manipulates the moon's orbit, plunging New York City into chaos. This guide delves into Dracula's role and influence within the game's lore.
Count Vlad Dracula, the iconic Transylvanian vampire lord, serves as the main villain in Season 1. His goal? To conquer present-day New York City and establish his Empire of Eternal Night.
Dracula possesses formidable powers: superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, and immortality. His regenerative abilities and mastery of mind control, hypnosis, and shapeshifting make him a formidable opponent.
In Season 1, Dracula uses Chronovium to disrupt the moon's orbit, plunging New York into darkness. This event mirrors Marvel's "Blood Hunt" storyline (2024), a particularly violent event where Dracula's influence expands under the cover of perpetual night. Heroes like Spider-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Blade, and the Fantastic Four must unite to counter Dracula's vampire army and save the city.
Currently, there's no official announcement confirming Dracula's inclusion as a playable character. Considering Doctor Doom's villainous role in Season 0 and subsequent absence as a playable character, Dracula's playability remains uncertain.
However, given his central role as the Season 1 antagonist, his presence will undoubtedly shape the season's game modes and maps. His prominence makes him a strong contender for future inclusion as a playable character. This guide will be updated should NetEase Games make an official announcement.
