Marvel Rivals Season 3 is about to begin, promising a host of new features for fans of NetEase's competitive shooter. Launching on July 11th, the new Battle Pass features themed skins, double tokens, and tweaks to the mission system. Phoenix also joins the playable roster, marking a more intense and condensed phase of the game.
With the season's duration reduced to two months instead of three, the developer has implemented strategic changes to maintain the pace and rewards for players. Below, see all the details on what to expect from the pass and how to secure exclusive items.
Battle Pass maintains structure, but rewards faster
Season 3 continues to offer 10 exclusive skins as part of the pass, keeping the same price as the previous season. However, the number of Chrono Tokens, the currency required to unlock the content, will be increased, allowing players to progress more quickly during the shortened season.
Additionally, NetEase has removed daily missions, redistributing the rewards among the remaining challenges. Now, weekly challenges will remain active until the end of the season, allowing busy players to avoid being at a disadvantage.
Seasonal Missions bring more content and flexibility
One of the biggest new features is the arrival of Season Missions, which remain active throughout the entire cycle and offer a larger volume of Chrono Tokens. This gives players more freedom to progress at their own pace, without the pressure of daily logins.
Thus, the change also brings Marvel Rivals closer to other games in the genre, such as Fortnite and Apex Legends, which already adopt a similar system of permanent challenges throughout the season.
Season 3 Skins Explore the Symbiotic Universe and the Phoenix Force
The main theme of Season 3 revolves around the planet Klyntar and the presence of the villain Knull, bringing with it several symbiote-inspired skins. Among the skins already confirmed for the pass are:
- Rocket Raccoon, Squirrel Girl and Jeff the Land Shark with symbiotic skins;
- Emma Frost with Phoenix Force skin;
- Magik and Wolverine will also receive Phoenix-powered versions;
- Blade, Hela, and Storm will get skins based on the “Knullified” aesthetic.
Some of these skins haven't yet been confirmed as available, and may arrive via events or the store, but previews already reveal a darker and more impactful visual pattern.
Additional rewards expand hero customization
In addition to skins, the Battle Pass will feature traditional sprays, MVP screens, emotes, and visual effects. One of the most anticipated features is Unstable Molecules, materials that unlock Ultimate VFX, adding unique effects to players' favorite characters.
As in previous seasons, there will be two reward tracks:
- The free track, with a limited number of items, including some skins;
- The premium track, which gives you full access to all unlockable content.
When the season starts and how to prepare
Marvel Rivals Season 3 officially begins on July 11. Players interested in making the most of the Battle Pass should stay tuned for in-game updates and complete available missions in the first few weeks.
Tip: Save your Chrono Tokens and follow the game's official website for updates to find out which rewards are tied to events or sold separately.
