Marvel Rival's Mister Fantastic Foils Foes with New Look

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

Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has dropped a sneak peek of a brand-new skin for Mister Fantastic: The Maker. This sinister alternate version of Reed Richards will debut alongside the hero himself on January 10th, with the launch of Season 1.

The reveal showcases a darker side of the iconic hero. The Maker, hailing from the Ultimate timeline, is a villainous counterpart to the familiar Mister Fantastic. His appearance reflects this transformation, featuring a mask concealing much of his face – a consequence of a brutal clash with the Human Torch. This isn't the only villainous makeover; Invisible Woman will also receive a dark counterpart skin, Malice.

The Maker skin boasts a striking black and gray design, accented by a glowing blue circle on the chest and back. A slate-colored mask, with a blue visor, further enhances the menacing aesthetic. Gameplay footage shows the suit's impressive elasticity and shape-shifting capabilities as he utilizes his powers.

Season 1: Eternal Night Falls – January 10th, 1 AM PST

The Season 1 update is packed with more than just new skins. Prepare for:

• Doom Match: A thrilling 8-12 player free-for-all where the top 50% emerge victorious.
• New Maps: Explore a darkened, ominous version of New York City.
• Hero Balance Adjustments: Expect buffs and nerfs to keep the roster competitive.

Beyond the official announcements, data miners have uncovered potential future additions, 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 skins hint at a bright future for Marvel Rivals' cosmetic offerings. Many fans speculate these might appear in the Season 1 battle pass.

With the arrival of Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, Marvel Rivals is poised to deliver a substantial content update. The combination of new skins, game modes, maps, and balance changes promises a thrilling experience for players.
