Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin
A new skin for Mister Fantastic, dubbed "The Maker," has been showcased in a recent Marvel Rivals clip. This exciting new cosmetic will debut alongside the character himself on January 10th, with the launch of Season 1: Eternal Night Falls.
The Maker skin depicts an alternate, villainous Reed Richards from the Ultimate universe. His appearance reflects a darker transformation, featuring a mask obscuring most of his face – a consequence of injuries sustained in a battle with the Human Torch. The skin boasts a sleek black and gray design, accented by a glowing blue circle on the chest and back, and a blue-visored mask. Gameplay footage highlights the suit's dynamic properties, stretching and adapting as Mister Fantastic utilizes his abilities. This isn't the only dark variant; Invisible Woman will also receive a villainous skin, Malice.
The official Marvel Rivals Twitter account confirmed The Maker as Mister Fantastic's first skin. Its stylish black, gray, and blue color scheme is sure to be a hit with players.
Beyond The Maker: More Skins and Season 1 Content
While NetEase Games has been steadily revealing new skins, data miners have unearthed further unreleased cosmetics, including a Lunar New Year skin for Spider-Man, and potential skins for Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange. The release timing and methods for these additional skins remain unconfirmed, but many players anticipate their appearance in the Season 1 battle pass.
Season 1: Eternal Night Falls promises a significant content update. Key additions include:
- Doom Match: A new 8-12 player free-for-all mode where the top 50% win.
- Hero Balancing: Numerous character buffs and nerfs to enhance gameplay fairness.
- New Maps: A darkened, atmospheric version of New York City is among the anticipated additions.
With the launch date set for January 10th at 1 AM PST, anticipation is high for the arrival of Season 1 and its wealth of new content.
