Marvel Rivals Season 2: All Free Skins and How to Unlock Them (May 2025 Guide)

In Marvel Rivals, looking good on the battlefield is half the fun. While most flashy costumes come with a price tag, not all skins are locked behind paywalls. If you’re trying to customize your favorite heroes without spending a dime, here’s your complete guide to all currently available free skins and exactly how to get them in Season 2.

Let’s break it all down so you don’t miss a single unlock.

Free Skins Still Available in Season 2

Here’s a current list of all the free skins you can claim in Marvel Rivals as of May 2025. This list excludes expired rewards like the Will of Galacta Namor and Flora Maiden Mantis skins, which ended on May 12.

Free Battle Pass Skins (No Purchase Needed)

Even though the Luxury Battle Pass has most of the premium content, some unlocks are available in the free tier. You’ll need to earn Chrono Tokens by playing matches and progressing through the pass to claim them, but no payment is required.

• Magik (Tier 8) and Iron Fist (Tier 18) are available through this method.

• These rewards will remain available until July 11, 2025, when the current season ends.

If you're planning to unlock them, now’s the time to grind some Chrono Tokens.

Heroic Achievements: Permanent Free Unlocks

Want skins you can get at your own pace without worrying about expiration dates? Focus on your Heroic Achievements.

• Unlock Storm's Ivory Breeze and Star-Lord’s Jovial Star by earning 200 Heroic Journey Points each.

• These skins are tied to milestones, not time limits, so you can take your time.

However, once you’ve claimed both, there are no other skins currently tied to this system. So treat them as a one-time bonus.

Other Ways to Get Free Skins

Besides the Battle Pass and Heroic Journey, there are multiple ways to score cosmetics for free in Marvel Rivals. Keep these in mind:

In-game Events

Special events occasionally offer free skins as rewards for participation. These are often time-limited, so it’s worth checking the news section in-game.

Competitive Ranked Rewards

If you're up for a challenge, climb the ladder. Reaching Gold rank or higher in Ranked Play during Season 2 will net you the Golden Diamond Emma Frost skin.

Console Store Freebies

PlayStation and Xbox occasionally list free skins directly on their digital stores. For example, Spider-Man's Scarlet Spider is a permanent freebie on the PlayStation Store.

Redeemable Codes

Keep an eye on official Marvel Rivals social channels. Developers sometimes drop codes during livestreams or events. These are limited-time, but a great way to snag an extra skin or two.

Twitch Drops

If you connect your game account and watch participating streamers during special campaigns, you can earn Twitch Drop cosmetics. While these aren’t currently active, past examples like the Magneto skin were only available this way, so stay alert for the next round.

A Quick Word on Expired Free Skins

Many free skins come with a timer, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. So far, 20 free skins have been vaulted, including:

• Twitch Drop Magneto

• Closed Alpha and Beta participation rewards

• Limited log-in skins from earlier campaigns

If you’re aiming to collect them all, make sure you don’t miss future events or one-time promos.

Final Thoughts

Marvel Rivals might lean toward premium content, but there’s still a good variety of free skins up for grabs — and some of them are pretty slick. Whether you’re grinding Battle Pass tiers, climbing the competitive ranks, or just redeeming the occasional code, there are plenty of ways to look good without paying up.
