Blade's Debut in Marvel Rivals Unveiled

Marvel Rivals' Midnight Features event showcases Blade's official artwork, hinting at a potential Season 2 playable character debut. The event, accessible via the in-game Season menu, offers rewards including Chrono Tokens, Units, and a free Thor skin across five chapters with three quests each. All chapters unlock by January 17th.

A Chapter 3 reward, a Gallery Card depicting Blade battling Dracula, marks the first official confirmation of Blade's presence in the game, following previous data-mined rumors. Season 1's narrative positions Blade and Doctor Strange as removed from the battlefield by Dracula.

The artwork fuels speculation that Blade will join the roster as a playable Duelist in Season 2, potentially with a transformation ability similar to Magik and Hulk's ultimates, enhancing strength, attacks, and providing wall-hack vision.

Further fueling anticipation, Ultron's complete ability kit leaked during Season 0 suggests a Strategist role, offering support and healing. While initially speculated for Season 1, his arrival may be delayed following The Fantastic Four's introduction. However, the game's future looks bright, with many players enthusiastic about the upcoming content, though remembering that leaks remain unconfirmed until official announcements.
