Marvel Rivals will receive patch version 20260205 on February 5, 2026 at 09 : 00 : 00 (UTC). The update requires no server downtime; players can patch and play immediately.
The update adds new store bundles, a free emote claim for The Thing, a temporary availability window for a Deadpool animation, and an extension for the Lady Loki bundle. The release also includes a set of cross-platform fixes, a console-specific memory improvement on the hero select screen, and a hero fix for Angela’s interaction with portals.
New store content and timing
New items listed for the in-store catalog include the Groot Mecha-Flora Bundle, Magneto Seat of Autumn Bundle, Groot Mecha-Flora Emoji Bundle, and a Take a Seat Emote Combo Bundle. A new animation for Deadpool becomes available on February 6, 2026 at 02 : 00 : 00 (UTC).
Players can claim The Thing’s Helmet Ready Emote for free during a limited window from February 8, 2026 02 : 00 : 00 (UTC) through February 22, 2026 02 : 00 : 00 (UTC).
The Lady Loki bundle’s availability has been extended and will remain on sale until February 20, 2026 at 02 : 00 : 00 (UTC).
Fixes and platform changes
The patch addresses several cross-platform issues. Achievements tied to the Hydra Charteris Base should now unlock correctly when the Red Team wins. The Clobberin’ Club team format display in settings has been corrected. Loki will no longer grant Proficiency to characters he transforms into, and Cloak’s cape physics in the Times Square Disco environment have been restored.
Console players receive an improvement to memory usage on the pre-match hero select screen, which should produce clearer character models during selection.
Hero-specific fixes include a correction to Angela’s Assassin’s Charge interaction so that carried enemies using Doctor Strange land in the correct location when passing through portals.

Has been extended until February 20th, 2026, at 02 : 00 : 00 (UTC).
Fixes and Optimizations
All Platforms
1. Hydra Charteris Base Achievement Un/locked: Fixed an issue where winning as the Red Team might not complete the “Cut off One Head” achievement. Now, your victory really counts, hail Hydra!
2. Clobberin’ Club Team Format Fix: The team format display in the Clobberin’ Club settings menu was doing its own thing. It’s been smacked back in line; what you see is what you get!
3. Loki’s Mastery Mischief: Loki was sneakily gaining Proficiency for whoever he transformed into. No more borrowed glory. Proficiency now only stays true to the God of Mischief.
4. Times Square Disco – Cloak’s Got the Moves: When Cloak hit the dance floor in Times Square, his model was missing some physics; no swirling cape, no shadowy flair, just pure stiffness. Now his cape flows as dramatically as the occasion demands.
Console
1. Hero Select Sharpened: We’ve improved memory usage on the pre-match hero select screen, resulting in crisper, clearer character models. No more blurry heroes, just pure Marvel definition!
Heroes
1. Angela’s Portal Plunge: When Angela used Assassin’s Charge to carry an enemy Doctor Strange through a portal, Strange could end up lost in the multiverse. He now lands exactly where he’s supposed to, sling rings restored to spec!
The Marvel Rivals universe is ever-evolving, and we have plenty more surprises and updates on the horizon. Stay tuned to our official announcements for more!
