Marvel Rivals Season 1: Eternal Night Falls – A Deep Dive into the Darkhold Battle Pass
Get ready for the chilling debut of Marvel Rivals Season 1, "Eternal Night Falls," launching January 10th at 1 AM PST! This season plunges players into a gothic horror-themed experience dominated by Dracula, with a captivating battle pass brimming with exclusive rewards.
The Darkhold battle pass, priced at 990 Lattice (approximately $10), offers a treasure trove of cosmetic items. Unlock 600 Lattice and 600 Units upon completion, providing in-game currency for future purchases. Ten unique skins headline the rewards, alongside an array of sprays, nameplates, emotes, and MVP animations. A key benefit: the pass doesn't expire, allowing completion at your own pace.
The trailer showcases a stunning array of character skins: Magneto as the regal King Magnus (House of M inspired), Rocket Raccoon in a Wild West bounty hunter guise, and an Iron Man sporting Dark Souls-esque golden armor. Peni Parker receives a vibrant blue and white costume, while Namor dons a green and gold ensemble.
Here's a complete list of the Season 1 Battle Pass Skins:
- Loki – All-Butcher
- Moon Knight – Blood Moon Knight
- Rocket Raccoon – Bounty Hunter
- Peni Parker – Blue Tarantula
- Magneto – King Magnus
- Namor – Savage Sub-Mariner
- Iron Man – Blood Edge Armor
- Adam Warlock – Blood Soul
- Scarlet Witch – Emporium Matron
- Wolverine – Blood Berserker
The season's dark aesthetic is pervasive, from Wolverine's Van Helsing-inspired skin to the blood moon casting its shadow over a gothic New York City. Loki's All-Butcher skin exudes menace, while Moon Knight's black and white contrast is striking. Scarlet Witch's classic red and purple attire and Adam Warlock's crimson-caped golden armor complete the sinister ensemble.
While the battle pass is generating significant excitement, the absence of skins for the newly introduced Fantastic Four (Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic) has surprised some fans. Cosmetics for these characters will be available separately in the in-game shop. Despite this, the abundance of content in Season 1 has players eagerly anticipating NetEase Games' next move.
