New Marvel Rivals event features free skins and revives its debut battle pass

In a world where I’m constantly wincing in pained surprise at the age of some of my favorite games, Marvel Rivals actually feels like the opposite. I forget, due to the amount of content in the game and its popularity, that it’s only been around for a matter of months. NetEase has just reminded me of the hero shooter’s infancy by announcing a new event that marks the one year anniversary of its closed alpha - the first time players went hands-on with the game publicly. To celebrate, it’s doing something pretty awesome. Not only will the Marvel Rivals Galacta's Gift event give you the chance to earn some free rewards (including a costume for your favorite hero) but it will also bring back its first ever battle pass, making it available to buy once again.
