Marvel Rivals Season 1: Dracula's Reign of Eternal Night

Marvel Rivals, boasting a vast roster of Marvel heroes and villains, plunges into its first season, "Eternal Night Falls," with Dracula as the central antagonist. This Transylvanian nobleman-turned-vampire lord, alongside Doctor Doom, manipulates the moon's orbit, plunging present-day New York City into chaos. Let's delve into Dracula's role and his sinister plan.

Who is Marvel Rivals' Dracula?

Count Vlad Dracula, the season's primary villain, aims to conquer a sunless New York. His formidable powers include superhuman attributes (strength, speed, agility, reflexes, and stamina), immortality, regeneration, and abilities like mind control and shapeshifting.

Dracula's Scheme in Season 1

Utilizing Chronovium, Dracula throws the moon's orbit into disarray, creating an "Empire of Eternal Night." His vampire army descends upon New York, prompting heroes like Spider-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Blade, and the Fantastic Four to unite against this nocturnal threat. This storyline mirrors Marvel's "Blood Hunt" (2024) comic arc, known for its intense vampire-centric action.

Will Dracula Be a Playable Character?

Currently, there's no official word on Dracula's playability. Considering Doctor Doom's absence as a playable character despite being Season 0's villain, Dracula's inclusion remains uncertain. However, his pivotal role in Season 1 strongly suggests he might become playable in future updates. This guide will be updated should NetEase Games announce his addition to the hero shooter.
