How To Read Black Panther Lore: The Blood of Kings in Marvel Rivals

Black Panther's hero page contains "The Blood of Kings." To complete the challenge, simply click on the lore entry. Alternatively, the Midnight Features II screen offers a "Go" button directly linking to the lore and allowing you to claim your reward.

While completing the challenge only requires a click, reading the lore itself is worthwhile. It's a compelling story: T'Challa journeys to an alternate-reality New York to seek Reed Richards, hoping he can help cure a mysterious ailment affecting his people. His sister, Shuri, believes Richards holds the key using the Heart-Shaped Herb. However, T'Challa encounters vampire resistance, culminating in a confrontation with Dracula, who poisons the Wakandan king, forcing him to make a difficult choice between saving himself or countless others.
