Marvel Rivals is now into its first season and there’s plenty of exciting new content to jump into. Aside from the addition of four new characters, players also have access to the Midnight Features event, and it’s well worth pursuing for the unique rewards it offers.

Events exist separately from Marvel Rivals’ Battle Pass, allowing players a way to earn rewards without sinking their hard-earned cash into the game. Set to run until February 7, Midnight Features has five Investigations, each with missions to complete as a prerequisite.
