Marvel Rivals Patch Notes - 21st May 2026

The Version 20260521 patch for Marvel Rivals arrives tomorrow, May 21st at 09:00 UTC, and the good news is there's no server downtime, it's a live patch, so you won't be staring at a maintenance screen.

is the Savage Adventure event, running from May 21st through June 25th. Complete event missions and you'll unlock Ultron's Cybernetic Drip costume and its bundle content for free, which is exactly the kind of earnable cosmetic structure this game should be leaning into more. Hela's Savage Monarch costume and Luna Snow's Sonic Trailblazer costume are also on the table as event rewards.

On the store side, Peni Parker gets The Freshman Bundle alongside emoji and chroma variants, while Daredevil picks up the Shadowed Start skin. Luna Snow's Sonic Trailblazer VFX and chromas are available as limited-time purchases from May 22nd through June 19th. Free event rewards alongside paid cosmetics is a fair split, and I'm not going to complain when a live-service game hands out a full costume without a price tag attached. Everything in the update is listed below.
