Marvel Rivals Unveils Season 1's Sanctum Sanctorum Map: A First Look
Season 1 of Marvel Rivals, "Eternal Night Falls," launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, introduces a thrilling new map: the Sanctum Sanctorum. This iconic location will serve as the backdrop for the game's new Doom Match mode, a chaotic free-for-all pitting 8-12 players against each other, with the top half emerging victorious.
The Sanctum Sanctorum, alongside Midtown and Central Park maps, expands Marvel Rivals' locales. Midtown will feature a new convoy mission, while Central Park's details remain under wraps, slated for a mid-season update.
A recent video showcased the Sanctum Sanctorum's unique blend of opulent décor and bizarre elements.

The trailer also offers a surprise glimpse of Wong and Doctor Strange's spectral canine companion, Bats.
This season's narrative centers around Dracula's menacing presence, prompting the Fantastic Four to defend New York City. Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman debut with Season 1, while Human Torch and The Thing join the fray in the mid-season update.
