Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown
Launched at the start of Season 1, Midtown is a Convoy map designed for the game's payload mode. Players either escort or defend a moving vehicle across the map. This is the third Convoy map in Rivals, joining Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path and Tokyo 2099: Spider-Islands. Midtown depicts a Dracula's Blood Moon-drenched New York City, featuring iconic Marvel and real-world locations:
Empire of Eternal Night: The Mystical Sanctum Santorum
This unique rendition of Doctor Strange's Sanctum Santorum is the sole map currently featuring Doom Match, a free-for-all deathmatch. Top-performing players earn wins, with the best player receiving MVP. The map beautifully recreates Strange's mystical home, first seen in a 1963 comic and famously featured in the MCU. Expect hidden secrets, impossible architecture, portals, and even a chance to interact with Bats the Ghost Dog.
Empire of Eternal Night: Central Park
Expected to release later in Season 1, Central Park will likely center around a stylized Belvedere Castle, situated at one of the park's highest points. This Gothic structure provides a fitting backdrop for the Empire of Eternal Night theme, possibly serving as a hideout for Dracula within the game's version of Central Park. The map's design draws inspiration from the park's depiction in various Marvel media, most recently in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (2023).
These are all the confirmed new maps for Marvel Rivals Season 1.
