Marvel Rivals Season 1 explodes onto the scene with new characters, maps, and modes, plus a fresh set of challenges unlocking free rewards, including a Thor skin! This guide focuses on triggering Recursive Destruction in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown.

What is Recursive Destruction in Marvel Rivals?

The first "Blood Moon Over the Big Apple" challenge requires triggering Recursive Destruction, a new mechanic. It happens when you destroy a Dracula-influenced object, and it reappears in its original form. Don't just start smashing everything; focus on specific items.

To identify these objects, use Chrono Vision (keyboard "B" or console right D-pad). Only red-highlighted items trigger Recursive Destruction.

How to Trigger Recursive Destruction in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown

A building that can trigger Recursive Destruction in Marvel Rivals.

This challenge requires Quick Match (Midtown) mode. Initially, no red-highlighted items appear. Wait for the first checkpoint; two destructible buildings will then become available to trigger Recursive Destruction.

While battling, find time to target these buildings. The chaos of the match might obscure their reappearance, but hitting them a few times should complete the challenge. If you don't trigger Recursive Destruction three times, simply replay the match. Once completed, move on to the next challenges featuring Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman.

That's how to trigger Recursive Destruction in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown in Marvel Rivals. Marvel Rivals is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
