Marvel Rivals players have taken to social media to express their excitement for the Midnight Features event quests available in Season 1: Eternal Night Falls. NetEase Games has much to celebrate, as Marvel Rivals was recently nominated for a DICE award and voted the top new game in PlayStation's Players' Choice for December 2024. With the launch of the new season, the game also set a new concurrent player record on Steam.

Currently in the early stages of Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, NetEase Games is already sharing future plans with fans. In a recent interview, the developers announced their intention to release a new playable hero every month and a half. While Season 1 will see the entire Fantastic Four debut over three months, future seasons will feature less content. However, fans are still excited about the steady introduction of new characters.

On Reddit, user Useful_You_8045 praised the Midnight Features event quests, particularly appreciating their availability across multiple game modes such as Quick Play, Competitive, and matches against AI. The option to complete quests against computer enemies has been a relief for many players, allowing them to experiment with new heroes or focus on challenges in a less competitive environment. Some players also noted their satisfaction with Season 1's rewards, including a Gallery Card offering a first look at Blade in Marvel Rivals.

NetEase Games has also enhanced the visual presentation of event quests, adding to their appeal within the season. When players access the Events tab, they encounter a Midnight Features newspaper where each headline and image introduces new quests. The animated images bring the Daily Bugle's pages to life. Although not all quests are currently available, they are expected to fully unlock on January 17. Completing all event quests will reward players with a free Thor skin in Marvel Rivals.

Players have been pleased with the improvements NetEase Games has made in Season 1, such as offering two free skins in the battle pass instead of one. The new season also includes fresh maps, a new game mode, and balance changes to ensure fairness among the game's extensive character roster. With NetEase Games' attention to detail and responsiveness to community feedback, many players are optimistic about the future of this popular hero shooter.
