Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker": A New Mister Fantastic Skin

Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has just dropped a sneak peek of "The Maker," a brand-new skin for Mister Fantastic, debuting alongside the character himself on January 10th with the launch of Season 1. This exciting update also brings a fresh game mode, new maps, and a host of other surprises.

The Maker skin depicts an alternate, Ultimate-timeline Reed Richards – a villainous counterpart to the heroic Mister Fantastic. His appearance reflects a darker past, featuring a mask concealing most of his face, a consequence of a brutal encounter with the Human Torch. This isn't the only dark transformation; Invisible Woman will also receive a villainous skin, known as Malice.

The Maker skin boasts a striking black and gray design, accented by a glowing blue circle on the chest and back. A slate-colored mask with a blue visor completes the sinister look. Gameplay footage showcases the suit's dynamic properties, stretching and morphing as Mister Fantastic utilizes his abilities.

Beyond The Maker: More Skins on the Horizon

While NetEase Games continues its steady stream of skin announcements, data miners are already unearthing even more unreleased cosmetics. A Lunar New Year skin for Spider-Man has been discovered, hinting at future additions. Cosmetics for Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange have also surfaced, fueling anticipation among fans. While release dates remain unconfirmed, many speculate these skins might appear in the Season 1 battle pass.

Season 1: Eternal Night Falls – A Night of Darkness and New Challenges

Season 1 promises a significant overhaul. A new game mode, "Doom Match," will pit 8-12 players against each other in a free-for-all, with the top 50% emerging victorious. Expect balance adjustments for numerous heroes, as well as the introduction of new maps, including a dark, ominous version of New York City. The anticipation for Season 1: Eternal Night Falls is palpable within the Marvel Rivals community. The combination of new skins, gameplay changes, and map additions promises a thrilling new chapter for the game.
