Marvel Rivals' Season 1: Eternal Night Falls introduces Dracula as the primary antagonist, teaming up with Doctor Doom to manipulate the moon's orbit and plunge New York City into darkness. This guide explores Dracula's role and abilities within the game's lore.
Count Vlad Dracula, the Transylvanian nobleman turned ancient vampire lord, aims to conquer a present-day New York City. His formidable powers include superhuman attributes (strength, speed, stamina, agility, reflexes), immortality, regeneration, mind control, hypnosis, and shapeshifting.
Dracula's Role in Marvel Rivals Season 1
Using Chronovium, Dracula disrupts the moon's orbit, creating an "Empire of Eternal Night" and unleashing a vampire army. This mirrors the events of Marvel's "Blood Hunt" (2024) storyline, where Dracula exploits the absence of sunlight to expand his dominion. Heroes like Spider-Man, Cloak & Dagger, Blade, and the Fantastic Four confront Dracula and his forces to save the city.
Dracula as a Playable Character?
Currently, there's no official announcement confirming Dracula as a playable character in Marvel Rivals. Considering Doctor Doom's role as Season 0's antagonist without playable status, Dracula's playability remains uncertain. However, his central role in Season 1 strongly suggests future inclusion as a playable character, potentially influencing game modes and maps. This guide will be updated with any official announcements regarding his inclusion.
