Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls introduces Dracula, the Transylvanian vampire lord, as its primary antagonist. Teaming up with Doctor Doom, Dracula manipulates Chronovium to disrupt the moon's orbit, plunging present-day New York City into perpetual darkness.
This sinister scheme aims to establish Dracula's "Empire of Eternal Night," unleashing a vampire army upon the city. Heroes such as Spider-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Blade, and the Fantastic Four must unite to thwart his plans and save New York.
Dracula's powers in Marvel Rivals mirror his comic book counterpart, boasting superhuman attributes including strength, speed, stamina, regeneration, and the ability to manipulate minds and shapeshift. His role draws inspiration from Marvel's "Blood Hunt" (2024) storyline, a pivotal event in the comics.
Will Dracula become a playable character? Currently, there's no official confirmation. Considering Doctor Doom's absence as a playable character despite being Season 0's main villain, Dracula's playability remains uncertain. However, his central role in Season 1 strongly suggests he'll significantly impact gameplay, potentially influencing maps and game modes. Any future announcements regarding his inclusion as a playable character in NetEase Games' hero shooter will be reflected in updates to this guide.
