Marvel's Dracula Unleashes in Season 1 of Rivals

Authore: JasonUpdate:Jan 21,2025

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Dracula's Reign of Terror

Marvel Rivals, drawing from the vast Marvel universe, introduces a diverse cast of heroes and villains. Season 1: Eternal Night Falls spotlights Dracula as its primary antagonist. This ancient Transylvanian vampire lord, alongside Doctor Doom, manipulates the moon's orbit, plunging present-day New York City into chaos.

Dracula's Abilities and Motives

Count Vlad Dracula, in Marvel Rivals, is a formidable foe. His powers include superhuman strength, speed, stamina, agility, and reflexes. His immortality and regenerative abilities make him exceptionally resilient. Furthermore, his mastery of mind control, hypnosis, and shapeshifting grants him strategic advantages in combat and manipulation.

Dracula's ambition in Season 1 is to establish his "Empire of Eternal Night," using the power of Chronovium to disrupt the moon's orbit and unleash a vampire army upon New York City. This mirrors the intensity of Marvel's "Blood Hunt" (2024) storyline, where Dracula capitalizes on a sunless world to expand his dominion.

Will Dracula Become a Playable Character?

Currently, there's no official confirmation about Dracula's inclusion as a playable character. Considering Doctor Doom's absence as a playable character despite his Season 0 villain role, Dracula's playability remains uncertain.

However, his central role as Season 1's antagonist strongly suggests he'll significantly impact gameplay, potentially influencing maps and game modes. His prominence makes him a likely candidate for future inclusion as a playable character. This guide will be updated should NetEase Games make an official announcement.
