Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown

Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown was the first new map to be released in Marvel Rivals Season 1, making its debut at the season's launch. This map is designed for the Convoy mode, which is a payload style game where players are tasked with either escorting or stopping a moving vehicle as it travels from one end of the map to the other. Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown marks the third Convoy map in Marvel Rivals, joining Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path and Tokyo 2099: Spider-Islands.

Set under the eerie glow of Dracula’s Blood Moon, Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown offers a haunting rendition of New York City. The map features several Points of Interest, blending iconic locations from the Marvel Universe with real-world Midtown Manhattan landmarks:

• Baxter Building
• Grand Central Terminal
• Stark/Avengers Tower
• Fisk Tower
• Ardmore’s Bookstore
• Timely Trend

Empire of Eternal Night: The Mystical Sanctum Santorum

The Empire of Eternal Night version of Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Santorum was added to Marvel Rivals in Season 1. This map is unique as it is the sole host of the Doom Match mode, a free-for-all deathmatch where players compete to survive and eliminate opponents. The top half of the leaderboard at the end of the match earns wins, and the overall best player is crowned MVP.

The Sanctum Santorum is a stunning representation of Doctor Strange’s mystical mansion, which serves as his home and headquarters. Originally introduced in a 1963 comic, it has since become well-known through its appearances in the MCU. In Marvel Rivals, the Sanctum Santorum in New York City acts as Earth’s supernatural defense hub. The map is filled with secrets and easter eggs, including supernatural rooms with impossible ceilings, portals, and an infinite staircase. Players can also interact with Bats The Ghost Dog on the map.

Empire of Eternal Night: Central Park

Details about the Central Park map are still emerging, as it is slated for release in the second half of Marvel Rivals Season 1. Central Park, located in Manhattan between the Upper West Side and Upper East Side, has been a staple in various Marvel media, most recently in the 2023 Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 video game.

In Marvel Rivals, the Central Park map will feature a stylized version of the real-world Belvedere Castle, situated at one of the park's highest points. This Gothic architectural gem is expected to serve as a thematic setting for the Empire of Eternal Night, potentially acting as a hideout for Dracula within New York City.

These are all the new maps introduced in Marvel Rivals Season 1, each offering unique settings and gameplay experiences within the Marvel Universe.
