*Marvel Rivals* kicks off Season 1 with a bang, introducing fresh characters, maps, and game modes. Along with these exciting additions, players can dive into new challenges that unlock free rewards, including an exclusive Thor skin. Let's dive into how to trigger Recursive Destruction in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown in *Marvel Rivals*.

What Is Recursive Destruction in Marvel Rivals?

The initial challenge in the "Blood Moon Over the Big Apple" section requires you to trigger Recursive Damage, a novel concept for this hero shooter. This phenomenon happens when you destroy an object influenced by Dracula during a match, and it subsequently reappears in its original form. To achieve this, you'll need to identify the correct items to target.

To spot items capable of triggering Recursive Destruction in *Marvel Rivals*, you'll need to activate Chrono Vision. This tool helps you see which map objects are destructible. You can access Chrono Vision using the "B" key on your keyboard or the right button on the D-pad if you're playing on a console. Remember, only items highlighted in red will trigger Recursive Destruction.

How To Trigger Recursive Destruction in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown in Marvel Rivals

A building that can trigger Recursive Destruction in Marvel Rivals.

To complete this specific challenge in NetEase's hero shooter, jump into the Quick Match (Midtown) mode. Once the game starts, focus on helping your team defend or attack the Fantasticar. Initially, using Chrono Vision won't reveal any red-highlighted items. You need to wait until the first checkpoint is reached, at which point two buildings will become visible on the map and will be capable of triggering Recursive Destruction.

Amidst the chaos of the match, take a moment to target these buildings. Even if you don't see them regenerate due to the fast-paced action, hitting them multiple times should suffice. If you fail to trigger Recursive Destruction three times, you can always retry the match. Once you've successfully completed this challenge, you can move on to explore the new characters, Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, in the subsequent challenges.

And that's how you trigger Recursive Damage in Empire of Eternal Night: Midtown in *Marvel Rivals*.

*Marvel Rivals is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.*
