Marvel Rivals has launched its one-year anniversary event ahead of the game's early December milestone, featuring free limited-time rewards including a Legendary Jeff the Land Shark skin. Players can earn the Business Shark skin through in-game activities, alongside time-limited Units and other cosmetics. The event runs for three weeks, with premium options available for extended access.
Event Overview
The anniversary celebration for Marvel Rivals began on November 28, 2025, just before the game's official one-year mark in early December. This limited-time event introduces various rewards, blending free and paid elements to engage the player base. Season 5, which recently launched, added Gambit to the roster, enhancing the timing of these festivities.
How to Get the Free Jeff Skin
Central to the event is 'Jeff's Break Time,' a 20-day activity where players earn coins by gaining match XP. These coins unlock items from a virtual vending machine. Free coins access the Business Shark skin for Jeff the Land Shark, along with new customizable parts for Rivals skins. The premium pass, priced at 990 Lattice (about $10), grants permanent access and includes exclusive skins like Dad-tastic Reed for Mister Fantastic and Disappearing Dessert for Invisible Woman.
Additional Free Rewards
Log-in rewards over seven days provide 1,500 time-limited Units, usable only until around December 18, after which they expire. These can be spent in the Van Dyne shop, opening December 3 with the Darling Daifuku Psylocke skin, or during the Black Friday sale ending that day. Further, 600 standard Units are available through the 'Rivals Assemble' feature by sharing friend codes to complete missions. An exclusive title awaits participants in the December 6 midnight countdown event, timed per player timezone.
The event promises more cosmetics in the coming weeks, encouraging ongoing play.
