Marvel Rivals: Uncovering All Midtown Easter Eggs

The debut of Marvel Rivals Season 1 introduces a vibrant new map, Midtown, which will resonate deeply with Marvel enthusiasts. Familiar to fans of the Marvel Universe, Midtown is set against the backdrop of the bustling Big Apple. However, Marvel Rivals cleverly sprinkles subtle references throughout the map, inviting players to uncover hidden gems. Below is a comprehensive list of every Midtown Easter egg in Marvel Rivals and what they symbolize.

The Baxter Building

As expected, the Baxter Building, home to the Fantastic Four, graces Midtown. Given that Season 1 centers around the First Family, players begin their journey inside this iconic structure.

Avengers Tower & Oscorp Tower

Venturing further into Midtown, players encounter two towering landmarks: Avengers Tower and Oscorp Tower. Oscorp serves as Norman Osborn’s base, while Avengers Tower stands as a sanctuary for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. In Marvel Rivals’ lore, however, Dracula now holds dominion over Avengers Tower.

Fisk Tower

Wilson Fisk, better known as Kingpin, asserts his influence over Midtown through his towering presence. While Fisk Tower is unmistakable, don’t mistake it as a sign of Daredevil’s imminent arrival—his nemesis remains absent for now.

F.E.A.S.T.

The F.E.A.S.T. Community Center, a vital shelter for New York’s less fortunate, subtly nods to its role in both Marvel’s Spider-Man games. Although not central to the comics, it adds depth to the map’s narrative.

Dazzler

To appease X-Men aficionados, Marvel Rivals features a Dazzler Easter egg. The mutant artist appears to be touring Midtown, perhaps competing with another rising star, Luna Snow. While Dazzler’s future in the game remains uncertain, her inclusion hints at potential developments.

Heroes for Hire

Iron Fist and Luke Cage, known as the “Heroes for Hire,” are advertised throughout Midtown. These street-level heroes patrol New York, ready to assist when a quick payout is involved. Although they don’t appear directly on the map, their presence looms large.

Roxxon Energy

Roxxon Energy, a notorious corporate entity in the Marvel Universe, maintains a strong presence in Midtown. Known for its shady dealings and villainous associates, Roxxon fuels much of the chaos in the Marvel multiverse.

A.I.M.

A.I.M., the enigmatic organization once affiliated with Hydra, seeks to establish a foothold in Midtown. Renowned for its bizarre experiments, A.I.M. has produced infamous creations like M.O.D.O.K. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Aldrich Killian spearheaded A.I.M.’s ambitions.

Bar With No Name

For villains seeking respite, the Bar With No Name offers a safe space. Located in every major Marvel city, its mysterious origins add intrigue to the lore.

Van Dyne

One of the Van Dynes promotes their fashion boutique in Midtown. Though unseen, it’s probable that either Janet Van Dyne (the original Wasp) or her MCU counterpart, Hope, manages the shop.
