Marvel Rivals Unveils the Mystical Sanctum Sanctorum Map in Season 1

Season 1 of Marvel Rivals, "Eternal Night Falls," launching January 10th at 1 AM PST, introduces a thrilling new map: the Sanctum Sanctorum. This iconic location will be the stage for a new 8-12 player Doom Match mode, a free-for-all where the top 50% emerge victorious. The map is one of three debuting in Season 1, alongside Midtown and Central Park. Midtown will feature a convoy mission, while Central Park's details remain under wraps, slated for a mid-season update.

The Sanctum Sanctorum, as showcased in a recent video, boasts a unique blend of lavish decor and surreal elements. Expect floating kitchenware, a bizarre refrigerator inhabitant (a squid-like creature!), winding staircases, levitating bookshelves, and mystical artifacts. Even a portrait of Doctor Strange himself adds a touch of whimsical charm. A surprising cameo features Wong, a beloved character making his Marvel Rivals debut. And for a final touch of magic, Doctor Strange's spectral canine companion, Bats, makes an appearance.
