Since its debut in December 2024, Marvel Rivals has thrilled gamers with its exhilarating superhero battles and a consistent flow of cosmetic rewards, allowing fans to customize their beloved heroes with flair. NetEase Games has been stirring up excitement in the community by rolling out free cosmetic items through a range of in-game events, allowing players to grab exclusive skins, sprays, and more without reaching for their wallets.
The integration of Twitch drops and seasonal challenges has solidified their status as a defining feature of the game’s live-service free-to-play approach. These features offer rewards for commitment and ensure the multiverse remains dynamic and engaging. The allure of a stylish Iron Man suit or a playful Venom emote has players jumping into matches with heightened excitement, eager to unlock these enticing rewards.
The newest surge of enthusiasm hits as Marvel Rivals unveils fresh chances to snag free cosmetics in 2025. Capitalizing on the momentum of limited-time modes and giveaways—such as the polarizing Valentine’s Day Streamer event—NetEase is intensifying its focus on player engagement. This month, the developers dropped a new twist in the game’s reward system, releasing a bundle that could revolutionize how players earn their cosmetics. The newly introduced Pick-Up Bundle has fans buzzing with anticipation over the surprises that lie ahead. Here’s everything you need to know.
The Marvel Rivals Pick-Up Bundle has released on March 27, 2025, at 7 PM PDT, and it comes with a price tag of $2.99 USD for players looking to enhance their experience. Accessible via the Exchange tab in the in-game store, this feature provides players with a blend of immediate and progression-oriented rewards. As soon as players make their purchase, they gain instant access to the Hyper Orange Venom skin, a striking reimagining of the character’s original look from Marvel Vs. Capcom. This skin is part of an exclusive bundle, but players can also snag it individually for 800 Units.
Players can unlock a total of seven extra rewards by participating in three matches each day. Here are all the rewards you can get:
Among these rewards, the Costume Coin is a real game-changer, which is an exciting new currency that allows players to exchange it in the store’s Exchange section for one of 32 Epic-tier skins from Season 0, featuring a selection that includes most of the launch heroes. Alternatively, players can exchange it for 100 Units if they possess all eligible skins. Players who own the Luxury Battle Pass will be rewarded with additional Chrono Tokens every time they claim a reward.
Marvel Rivals players are required to finish at least 3 matches in Quick Match, Competitive, Conquest, Doom Match, or Practice Vs. modes, with a new Pick-Up Bundle reward becoming available each day following the reset at 09:00 UTC. The bundle is a permanent acquisition, restricted to one per account, and necessitates real money rather than in-game currencies such as Units or Lattice.
Once you play those three matches each day, you’ll be able to claim a free reward in the Pick Up bundle tab available on the Home Screen. When you claim a Costume Coin from the Pick Up Bundle tab, head to the Exchange tab in the Store to claim available skins for free.
Here are all the skins you can redeem using the Costume Coin in Marvel Rivals for free:
While you’re checking out the new bundle, don’t forget to complete the Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure tab quests and claim free rewards for a free Easter Egg dropping soon in Marvel Rivals.
The Call of Duty franchise has held a special place in my heart ever since I played my first Black Ops game back in 2010. That game's campaign was something else, with twists and turns that culminated in a mind-blowing finale. We can all admit that compared to those older campaigns, the recent CODs have been lackluster at best, and a complete and utter disappointment at worst. The reboot of Modern Warfare did give me some hope, as the first two installments were actually quite good, but the third game left such a bad taste in my mouth that I wasn’t exactly expecting much from Modern Warfare 4.
After recently finishing the campaign, I can say that this installment is nothing like the recent releases and instead feels closer to the franchise’s roots. For the first time in a long while, the campaign comes across as well-crafted rather than rushed to hit a release date. It arrives three years after MW3, and you can see exactly where all that time went. It seems the studio finally made listening to player feedback a priority.
Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.
Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”
It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.
Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.
