Marvel Rivals: Uncovering All Midtown Easter Eggs
The launch of *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 introduces an exciting new map, Midtown, a location beloved by Marvel fans and often seen in stories set in New York City. This map is not just a backdrop but a treasure trove of Easter eggs that pay homage to the rich tapestry of the Marvel Universe. Here’s a detailed look at every Midtown Easter egg in *Marvel Rivals* and what they signify.
Every Marvel Rivals Midtown Easter Egg & What They Mean
The Baxter Building
The Baxter Building is an iconic landmark in the Marvel Universe, serving as the home of Marvel's First Family, the Fantastic Four. Given that Season 1 focuses on the Fantastic Four, it's fitting that players start the game within this legendary structure, making it a central hub of activity on the Midtown map.
Avengers Tower & Oscorp Tower
As players venture out from their spawn point, they'll spot two other significant towers: Avengers Tower and Oscorp Tower. The former is the headquarters of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, while the latter is where Norman Osborn, aka the Green Goblin, operates. In the *Marvel Rivals* storyline, Season 1 villain Dracula has taken over Avengers Tower, adding a thrilling twist to the map's narrative.
Fisk Tower
Wilson Fisk, better known as Kingpin, has a commanding presence in Midtown with his towering structure. While his tower is a prominent feature, it's important to note that this doesn't necessarily indicate that his nemesis, Daredevil, will make an appearance in the game soon.
F.E.A.S.T.
The F.E.A.S.T. Community Center, a lesser-known but significant part of the Marvel Universe, appears in Midtown. This shelter, featured in *Marvel's Spider-Man* games, is run by May Parker until her tragic death. Its inclusion adds depth to the map, connecting it to other Marvel narratives.

Dazzler
X-Men fans will be delighted to find a Dazzler Easter egg in Midtown. It seems she's on tour in this version of Earth, potentially competing with another pop star, Luna Snow. While there's no confirmation of her future in the game, this nod suggests she might join the roster down the line.
Heroes for Hire
Midtown also features advertisements for Iron Fist and Luke Cage, known together as Heroes for Hire. These street-level heroes are known for their mercenary work in New York, and their presence hints at their proximity, even if they don't appear directly on the map.
Roxxon Energy
Not all is good in New York, as evidenced by the advertisements for Roxxon Energy. This nefarious corporation is notorious for employing villains to do its dirty work, including battling heroes, making it a fitting addition to Midtown's darker elements.
A.I.M.
Another sinister organization, A.I.M., is attempting to establish a foothold in New York in *Marvel Rivals*. Known for creating bizarre creatures like M.O.D.O.K., A.I.M. adds a layer of intrigue to the map, hinting at potential future conflicts.
Bar With No Name
Villains need a place to unwind, and the Bar With No Name provides just that. This secret haven for baddies, located in every major city in the Marvel Universe, adds a touch of mystery and depth to Midtown's criminal underbelly.
Van Dyne
Even heroes engage in branding, as seen with the Van Dyne fashion boutique advertisement in Midtown. While neither Janet Van Dyne (the original Wasp) nor her daughter Hope (from the MCU) appear in the ad, it suggests one of them is behind this stylish venture.
These Easter eggs enrich the *Marvel Rivals* Midtown map, connecting it to the broader Marvel Universe and hinting at potential future content. If you're eager to explore more, here are all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to achieve them.
