Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin

Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has dropped a sneak peek of "The Maker," a brand-new skin for Mister Fantastic, debuting alongside the hero himself on January 10th with the launch of Season 1. This launch also brings a wave of exciting updates, including a fresh game mode and maps.

The Maker skin portrays an alternate, Ultimate-timeline Reed Richards – a villainous counterpart to the hero we know. This darker iteration, scarred from a battle with the Human Torch, sports a mask concealing most of his face. He's not alone in his villainous transformation; Invisible Woman will also receive a sinister makeover with the "Malice" skin.

The official Marvel Rivals Twitter account showcased The Maker's design: a sleek black and gray suit accented by a glowing blue circle on the chest and back, and a slate-colored mask with a blue visor. Gameplay footage highlights the suit's dynamic properties, stretching and adapting as Mister Fantastic utilizes his abilities.

Beyond The Maker: More Skins on the Horizon

While NetEase Games continues its steady stream of skin reveals, data miners are uncovering even more unreleased cosmetics. A Lunar New Year skin for Spider-Man is among the leaked finds, hinting at future additions. Cosmetics for Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange have also surfaced. While release dates remain unconfirmed, many fans anticipate seeing some of these skins in the Season 1 battle pass.

Season 1: Eternal Night Falls – A Night of New Content

Season 1 promises a major overhaul. NetEase Games has announced several significant changes, including "Doom Match," a thrilling 8-12 player free-for-all where the top 50% emerge victorious. Expect character balance adjustments (buffs and nerfs) as developers fine-tune the roster. A darkened, ominous version of New York City is also among the new maps eagerly anticipated by the community. The excitement for Season 1: Eternal Night Falls is palpable.
