Marvel Rivals maps: AgataSmurf article cover

Marvel Rivals has 18 maps in its standard Quick Match and Competitive modes as of October 2026: six each for Convergence, Convoy and Domination. On top of that come arcade maps (Ninomaru, Doctor Strange’s mansion in the Empire of Eternal Night, Alchemax Headquarters, Grand Garden, Shenloong Arena), event maps and the Times Square social hub. The newest standard map is God Quarry, added on September 24, 2026.

Marvel Rivals maps by mode: Convergence, Convoy and Domination

NetEase doesn’t keep a public map list on the official site, so the names, modes and dates below come from the Marvel Rivals Wiki maps page, which tracks every reveal and launch (checked on October 21, 2026). New maps arrive often, roughly every season or half-season since launch.

All Marvel Rivals maps by mode

Mode Maps
Convergence Central Park, Hall of Djalia, Symbiotic Surface, Shin-Shibuya, Heart of Heaven, Lower Manhattan
Convoy Midtown, Arakko, Spider-Islands, Yggdrasill Path, Museum of Contemplation, Thebes
Domination Birnin T’Challa, Hell’s Heaven, Royal Palace, Krakoa, Celestial Husk, God Quarry
Conquest (arcade) Ninomaru
Doom Match (arcade) Doctor Strange’s mansion (Empire of Eternal Night), Alchemax Headquarters
18 vs 18 modes (arcade) Grand Garden, Shenloong Arena

Throne of Knull, the Resource Rumble map that arrived in August 2025, has since been removed. Event maps like World Arena (Clash of Dancing Lions), Jeffland or the Jungle of Wakanda only exist while their event runs.

What do the Marvel Rivals map modes mean?

Three modes, three different jobs. In Domination, both teams fight over one control point, round after round, and the first to win two rounds takes the match. Convoy is an escort mode: attackers push a moving payload through checkpoints while defenders try to stall it. Convergence mixes the two (attackers capture a point first, then escort a payload from there).

Which mode suits which hero? Domination rewards tanks who can sit on a point, Convoy rewards teams that can hold a long chokepoint, and Convergence asks for both in one match. If you’re picking a frontline hero, our guide to Marvel Rivals tanks covers how each Vanguard plays.

When was each Marvel Rivals map released?

The game launched on December 6, 2024 with nine competitive and arcade maps, three of which had already appeared in the alpha and beta tests. Since then NetEase has kept adding to the pool:

Map Mode Released
Yggdrasill Path, Royal Palace, Shin-Shibuya Convoy, Domination, Convergence May 12, 2024 (Closed Alpha Test)
Spider-Islands Convoy Jul 23, 2024 (Closed Beta Test)
Hall of Djalia, Birnin T’Challa, Hell’s Heaven, Symbiotic Surface, Ninomaru Various Dec 6, 2024 (launch)

Shenloong Arena 18 vs 18 Bounty Annihilation Jun 12, 2026
Thebes Convoy Jul 23, 2026
God Quarry Domination Sep 24, 2026

Honestly, the pace picked up in 2026. Four new standard maps arrived in nine months, and the old articles that say “15 maps” or “10 maps” (an earlier version of this page included) are a few seasons out of date.

Which locations do the maps use?

Most early maps sit in a handful of Marvel locations, each with two or three maps:

  • Tokyo 2099 has Shin-Shibuya, Spider-Islands and Ninomaru.
  • Yggsgard: Yggdrasill Path and Royal Palace.
  • The Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda covers Hall of Djalia, Birnin T’Challa and the Practice Range.
  • Empire of Eternal Night, the Season 1 setting, gave us Midtown, Central Park and the Doom Match map set in Doctor Strange’s mansion.
  • Hellfire Gala added Krakoa and Arakko, Klyntar has Symbiotic Surface and Celestial Husk (both feature the Celestial Codex), and K’un-Lun has Heart of Heaven and Shenloong Arena.

Newer maps such as Lower Manhattan, Thebes and God Quarry stand on their own instead of sharing a location. Funny enough, Times Square isn’t a battle map at all. It’s the social hub added with Season 5 on November 14, 2025, where events like the 2026 Lion Dance stage take place.

Marvel Rivals arcade and event maps

Arcade maps are permanent but use different rules. Ninomaru hosts Conquest, Doctor Strange’s mansion and Alchemax Headquarters host Doom Match (a free-for-all), and Grand Garden and Shenloong Arena are built for 18 vs 18 battles.

Event maps come and go.

World Arena, Digital Duel Grounds, Jungle of Wakanda: all three were built for one event each. World Arena hosted Clash of Dancing Lions in early 2025, the Digital Duel Grounds hosted Ultron’s Battle Matrix Protocol in June 2025, and the current Path to Doomsday event uses the Jungle of Wakanda, released on October 9, 2026.

How to learn new Marvel Rivals maps

Play a few Quick Match games before taking a new map into Competitive. In practice, the first week after a map drops is when people get caught by unfamiliar flanks and high ground.

Check which heroes are strong this season too. Our Marvel Rivals tier list follows the patches, and a hero that’s average on Convoy can be great on a tight Domination point. And if the game stutters on the bigger maps, compare your PC with the Marvel Rivals system requirements.
