Marvel Rivals Recursive Destruction explained and how to trigger

Season 1 of Marvel Rivals is off to an impressive start with two new heroes to learn, more maps, and a plethora of additional skins to pick up.

Even if you have been playing since launch though, you might not be accustomed to some terminology that could be integral.

One in-game phrase that many are being confused by is Recursive Destruction which has become more prominent in Season 1 due to the Midnight Features event.

Here, we’ll explain exactly what Recursive Destruction is so you can box off any associated missions or change the map to your liking.

What is Marvel Rivals Recursive Destruction and how to trigger it

As you’ve been playing Marvel Rivals, you will have been destroying certain parts of the map to open up new areas and blowing down cover your opponents may be hiding behind.

Recursive Destruction is essentially the opposite of that, rebuilding objects in the map to create new vantage points and potentially changing up key chokeholds.

As we alluded to earlier, the Midnight Features event coupled with other challenges, sometimes asks you to trigger Recursive Destruction so learning how to do it is key.

If you’re not sure what areas can be affected by Recursive Destruction, you’ll need to utilize Chrono Vision which can be activated by hitting the B key on your keyboard or right on the D-pad for controller.

Upon doing so and locating an area of Recursive Destruction, the object will be highlighted in red and you’ll need to start attacking it to complete the process.

Unfortunately, there is only one map that actually has Recursive Destruction elements — Midtown.

This is the new map that has been introduced with Season 1 and is themed on New York City, featuring some pretty iconic comic book landmarks.

To complete any Recursive Destruction associated missions, we recommend loading up a Quick Match (Midtown) match as you’ll only play on that specific map, as well as focusing on that large broken Iron Man suit as this is the easiest structure to build.
