Marvel Rivals Season 1: Free Skins, New Characters, and Villainous Makeovers!
NetEase Games' Marvel Rivals kicks off Season 1: Eternal Night Falls with a surprise gift for players – free Peni Parker and Scarlet Witch skins! Dracula's attack on New York City sets the stage, forcing the Fantastic Four into action. The season runs from January 10th to April 11th, 2025.
This season introduces the Fantastic Four to the game's roster. Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are available at launch, while Human Torch and The Thing arrive in a mid-season update (rumored to be a Duelist and Vanguard, respectively).
Players can earn free cosmetic rewards, including the Peni Parker's Blue Tarantula skin (page 3 of the free battle pass) and Scarlet Witch's Emporium Matron skin (page 9). While a free Scarlet Witch emote is included, her MVP animation requires the premium battle pass (990 Lattice, approximately $10). A separate Midnight Features event offers a free Thor skin through quest completion.
Beyond the free rewards, the in-game shop boasts new villainous skins for Invisible Woman (Malice) and Mister Fantastic (The Maker). These stylish alternate outfits add to the excitement of the new season. The overwhelmingly positive fan reaction underscores the success of Marvel Rivals' latest content drop.
