Marvel Rivals fans have plenty to be excited about with the chance to snag free skin bundles by joining matches alongside featured streamers. This limited-time event runs between December 20 and December 22, and the winners can select from a list of 33 eligible skin bundles.
The news came hot on the heels of Marvel Rivals’ latest Winter Celebration update. The update introduced a variety of new cosmetics and a thrilling new game mode. In this special mode, eight players become Jeff the Land Shark and split into two teams. Their goal? To blanket the map in frost. The team covering most of the area in the given time triumphs, but beware, as the mighty Jeffs swallow each other whole to eliminate competitors. It’s a frosty battle that’s as intense as it is fun.
This opportunity was announced by NetEase Games on Twitter, making it clear that players simply need to hop into a Quick Match and land in the same game as one of the featured streamers to potentially win a skin bundle. There’s no need to be on the same team as the streamer, which means up to 11 lucky players could walk away with free skin bundles in each match. For those interested, participating is key—and it needs to happen during the official event windows. Once in a game, the scoreboard will list all player names, making it easy to spot if you’re in the right match. And as a bonus, during the Winter Celebration event, everyone can claim a free Jeff the Land Shark skin!
Regarding the event’s schedule, you’ll want to be online at these times: December 20, 2024, from 3 PM to 4 PM PST; December 21, 2024, from 1 PM to 2 PM PST; and December 22, 2024, from 1 PM to 2 PM PST.
Should you find yourself in a match with one of the spotlighted streamers, congratulations are in order. A notification will glide into your in-game email box, coupled with a questionnaire. Completing this survey is your ticket to choosing one of the 33 skin bundles available in the game’s shop—one for each character, excluding the recently released Winter Celebration skins, which debuted in the shop on December 20.
Though still fresh on the scene, Marvel Rivals recently cheered for its rapidly growing player base, now 20 million strong since its initial rollout. Enthusiasm is bubbling over for the start of Season 1, buoyed by leaks revealing anticipated new skins and characters such as Black Widow, Squirrel Girl, and even Ultron. While leaking sometimes offers a peek into the future, it doesn’t always signify certainty. Nonetheless, things are looking bright, and the excitement surrounding Marvel Rivals continues to grow.
