Marvel Rivals Season 1: New Content, Free Skins, and More!
Marvel Rivals' Season 1 launch has delivered a wealth of exciting new content, including free skins and a thrilling new game mode. Players can currently snag a free Thor skin via the Midnight Features event. This event, centered around Dracula's attack on New York City and the Fantastic Four's intervention, offers a compelling narrative backdrop. The season, which began January 10th and concludes April 11th, promises a packed schedule of challenges and rewards.

Claiming Your Free Thor Skin:
The "Reborn from Ragnarok" Thor skin is earned by completing the Midnight Features event challenges. While only the initial chapter is currently available, subsequent chapters will unlock weekly, with full access to the skin expected by January 17th. Additionally, a free Hela skin can be obtained through Twitch Drops.
In-Game Purchases:
Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman skins are available for purchase in the shop for 1,600 Units. Units can be earned through in-game progress or purchased with Lattice, the premium currency. The battle pass itself offers 600 Units and 600 Lattice upon completion, providing further opportunities to acquire new cosmetics.
