Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown
Launching alongside Season 1, Midtown is a Convoy map, specifically designed for the game's payload mode. Players either escort or defend a moving vehicle across the map. This is the third Convoy map in Rivals, joining Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path and Tokyo 2099: Spider-Islands. Midtown depicts a nighttime New York City under Dracula's Blood Moon, featuring landmarks like the Baxter Building, Grand Central Terminal, Stark/Avengers Tower, Fisk Tower, Ardmore's Bookstore, and Timely Trend.
Empire of Eternal Night: The Mystical Sanctum Santorum
Doctor Strange's Sanctum Santorum, in its "Empire of Eternal Night" variant, is the unique location for the game's Doom Match mode – a free-for-all deathmatch. Top-performing players earn wins, with the best player receiving MVP. This stunning rendition of Strange's home and headquarters, first appearing in a 1963 comic and famously featured in the MCU, offers secrets, supernatural rooms, portals, and an infinite staircase. Players can even interact with Bats the Ghost Dog.
Empire of Eternal Night: Central Park
Expected to launch later in Season 1, Central Park's map will likely feature a stylized Belvedere Castle, situated at one of the park's highest points. This Gothic structure provides a fitting setting for the "Empire of Eternal Night" theme, potentially serving as Dracula's New York City hideout. The map draws inspiration from the park's appearances in various Marvel properties, most recently in Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
These are all the confirmed new maps for Marvel Rivals Season 1.
