Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin
A new skin for Mister Fantastic, dubbed "The Maker," has been showcased by Marvel Rivals. This villainous alternate version of Reed Richards from the Ultimate timeline will debut alongside the hero himself on January 10th, with the launch of Season 1: Eternal Night Falls.
The Maker skin features a striking black and gray design, accented by a glowing blue circle on the chest and back. A slate-colored mask, partially concealing his face, incorporates a blue visor. Gameplay footage reveals the suit's dynamic properties, stretching and adapting as Mister Fantastic utilizes his abilities. This darker iteration reflects his transformation into a villain after a disfiguring encounter with the Human Torch. Invisible Woman will also receive a villainous counterpart, Malice.
Season 1's arrival promises a wealth of new content, including:
- The Maker Skin: A stylish and menacing skin for Mister Fantastic.
- New Game Mode (Doom Match): An 8-12 player free-for-all where the top 50% win.
- New Maps: Including a dark, ominous version of New York City.
- Hero Balance Adjustments: Buffs and nerfs to various characters.
Beyond the officially announced content, data miners have uncovered potential future skins, including a Lunar New Year skin for Spider-Man and cosmetics for Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange. While release dates remain unconfirmed, these leaked assets fuel anticipation for future updates. The Season 1 Battle Pass might offer some of these highly anticipated additions.
The upcoming update has generated considerable excitement within the Marvel Rivals community, with Season 1: Eternal Night Falls poised to deliver a significant content injection.
