Marvel Rivals Version 20250110 Adds Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, and Celestial Rank
Marvel Rivals version 20250110 introduces Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, a new Convoy map, and the Celestial competitive tier. The update also brings extensive hero balance adjustments, new graphics toggles, and Intel XeSS 2 support.
Dracula and his undead legion take over New York City in the latest Marvel Rivals update, bringing two classic heroes, a new map, and a competitive tier expansion alongside a sprawling list of bug fixes.
New Heroes, Maps, and Modes
Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman join the roster alongside matching Maker and Malice costumes. A new Convoy map, Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown, arrives alongside an 8-12 player arcade mode called Doom Match set in the Sanctum Sanctorum. Convoy and Convergence modes now allow both sides to transition to the next spawn room after attackers complete objectives.
Ranked Progression and Store Updates
A new competitive tier called Celestial sits between Grandmaster and Eternity across three divisions. Season 0 ranks drop by seven divisions heading into Season 1. Daily mission unlocks, store updates, and event start times shift from 7:00 UTC+0 to 9:00 UTC+0, accompanied by optimized and less demanding mission types.
Graphics Options and PC Performance
PC players gain the ability to completely turn off Anti-Aliasing, Global Illumination, and Reflection Quality, alongside a new Performance option for Model Detail. Keyboard and combat settings add mouse smoothing and acceleration sliders. The game also incorporates Intel XeSS 2, featuring Xe Frame Generation and Xe Low Latency support.
Hero Balance and Gameplay Fixes
The patch resolves numerous hero-specific anomalies, including frame-rate movement quirks for Doctor Strange and Magik, Wolverine Feral Leap bugs, and Winter Soldier ultimate registration failures. Rocket Raccoon can no longer place Battle Rebirth Beacons on abnormal map geometry via Groot's shoulders. A newly added get-unstuck feature returns players to the spawn room if trapped in terrain for a set duration.
Why this patch matters
Version 20250110 is a massive seasonal pivot that expands the hero roster and competitive ladder while addressing long-standing physics and collision bugs.
