Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin
Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has showcased a first look at "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 includes a fresh game mode, new maps, and much more.
The Maker skin depicts an alternate, Ultimate timeline version of Reed Richards—a villainous counterpart to the heroic Mister Fantastic. His appearance reflects a darker path, featuring a mask concealing most of his face, a consequence of a brutal clash with the Human Torch. He’s not alone in his villainous transformation; Invisible Woman will also receive a dark makeover with the Malice skin.
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, partially obscuring his face, incorporates a blue visor. Gameplay footage reveals the suit's dynamic properties, stretching and adapting as Mister Fantastic utilizes his abilities. The official Marvel Rivals Twitter account confirmed the skin's arrival on January 10th.
Beyond The Maker: More Skins and Season 1 Content
While NetEase Games continues its steady stream of skin announcements, data miners have unearthed even more unreleased cosmetics. A Lunar New Year skin for Spider-Man is among the leaked finds, hinting at future releases. Cosmetics for Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange have also been discovered. While release dates remain unconfirmed, many fans anticipate seeing some of these skins in the Season 1 battle pass.
Season 1: Eternal Night Falls promises a significant overhaul. A new game mode, "Doom Match," a chaotic 8-12 player free-for-all where the top 50% win, is a key addition. Expect balance adjustments for numerous characters, and prepare for new maps, including a dark, ominous version of New York City. The anticipation is high amongst players for this substantial content update.
