Marvel Rivals Season 8 brings Alchemax, college perks, and a PC cleanup

NetEase says Season 8 begins on May 15, 2026 UTC and will add exclusive College Student Perks along with a major PC storage optimization.

Marvel Rivals is lining up Season 8: Sins of Alchemax, and Dev Vision Vol. 17 has the broad strokes on what is coming next. Guangguang says the season will introduce exclusive College Student Perks and a major PC storage optimization, with the next chapter centered around Alchemax Headquarters.

The season starts on May 15, 2026 UTC, so players do not have long to wait before the new content lands. The story setup already pointed toward Cyclops, Devil Dinosaur, and Moon Girl, as seen in Marvel Rivals Season 8 puts Cyclops and Devil Dinosaur in the spotlight.

That is the main update so far, but the PC storage change should catch plenty of attention for players who have been keeping an eye on install size and disk space. We will see how much the rest of Season 8 changes once it goes live.
