The first season of Marvel Rivals may have started, but it's brought an end to mods that let players be third-party characters.

Give the hype surrounding the game, it seemed somewhat likely that Marvel Rivals would beat its launch concurrent playercount. It did, and then some.

We already knew that Marvel Rivals has proven incredibly popular since its launch last month - 10 million players joined online at launch - but now it's smashed another milestone, topping 600K concurrent players this weekend on Steam.

Marvel Rivals season 1 will start soon after its scheduled server maintenance which begins at 11 pm PST on January 9. With that in mind, here are the release times for Marvel Rivals season 1:

Marvel Rivals’ Season 1 launch has beaten the game’s already massive player count record with no sign of slowing down.

Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman are joining the roster at the start of the season, alongside a new convoy map and battle pass.

Marvel Rivals' latest update for Season 1 has seemingly introduced a feature that means custom skin mods will no longer work in the game.

Eternal Night Falls begins today. The newest season brings a slew of new content to the popular hero shooter from Marvel and NetEase Games. This includes a new Battle Pass that brings several cosmetics to the game.

Players have praised what is a truly massive amount of content for season 1, which includes three new maps, four new characters (the entire Fantastic Four) and a $10 battle pass with a full ten skins.

Marvel Rivals’ new season begins tomorrow, January 10, and there’s plenty to be excited about. Four new heroes are joining the roster, three maps are entering the rotation, and there’s a new battle pass of cosmetics.
