All-New Events

Rogue recently threw a totally radical pajama party! However, after the party wound down, Jeff fell into a terrifying nightmare. Guided by Mantis's telepathic expertise, the crew dove straight into Jeff's dream, only to discover a giant star suspended in the sky, surrounded by a chaotic flurry of bizarre thoughts.

The heroes on the scene quickly split into two teams to investigate this psychic phenomenon.

Jeff's Dream Eater

Relying on his unique radar sense, Daredevil stayed behind in Jeff's dream, carefully collecting our favorite shark's scattered, whimsical thoughts. He's attempting to track down the source of the nightmare hiding deep within Jeff's subconscious.

Complete the event to acquire Venom's President Ozzy costume and related bundle content for FREE! Unlock premium for Rogue's Slumber Sugah, Jeff the Land Shark's Shark in Sheep's Clothing, and more.

Event Period: September 17th, 2026, 09 : 00 : 00 to October 15th, 2026, 09 : 00 : 00 (UTC)

Jeff's Superstar Search

Meanwhile, the rest of the heroes followed the trail of the dream-star! Heading out to Times Square and Hellfire Bay Beach in search of the Superstar from Jeff's dream.

Collect Stars to earn rewards including a Spray, Title, and Nameplate.

Event Period: September 17th, 2026, 09 : 00 : 00 to October 9th, 2026, 09 : 00 : 00 (UTC)

New Content

Balance Adjustments

Fixes and Optimizations

Gameplay

•

Deadpool's Clone Conundrum: Fixed an issue in Clone Rumble where players were unable to switch Team-Ups when randomized as Deadpool. Wade got a little too attached, but we've untangled the Merc with a Mouth so he can swap his besties at will!

•

Jeff's Ducky Dip Details: Fixed a missing texture issue with Jeff the Land Shark's Ducky Dip emote. Our favorite land shark's bath time is back to being picture-perfect. Splish splash, Jeff!

•

Peni Parker's Portrait Polish: Fixed a visual inconsistency between the physical eye models and the 2D portrait artwork for Peni Parker's Liquid Shell costume. The SP//dr suit's optic sensors are fully synced, and Peni's looking sharply aligned in every dimension!

•

Doctor Strange's Astral Smile: Fixed a teeth texture display issue on Doctor Strange's Astral Arcana costume. The Sorcerer Supreme shouldn't have to battle multiversal dental issues; his mystic grin is now totally flawless. By the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth!

•

Emma Frost's Telepathic Tunes: Fixed an issue where the sound effects for Emma's Psychic Spear ability would sometimes play incorrectly while she was wearing her Glittering Goddess costume. The White Queen demands absolute perfection, and her psychic broadcasts are now perfectly clear.

The Marvel Rivals universe is ever-evolving, and we have plenty more surprises and updates in store. Stay tuned to our official announcements for more!
